Why does this patch feel rushed like when the game was released?

Please explain this bit to me, I have not done any gathering leves yet but I'm used to avoiding agressive mobs in my levs. Iron lake has always had Kabolds for it's leve area for Botany at least.

a lot of spots where nodes appear now have like 30 beastmen in a tiny area, so dodging them takes 15min+ and then they agro while you log, and you can't take them out as a r50 dow/m since more just move to the area or they respawn. This basically cuts out 2-3 gathering leves as viable to complete. Its not a HORRIBLE thing, its just sloppy.
