Most of our campaigning involved kicking around Garlean mooks, that's hardly going to enable us to suddenly match someone who is presented as overwhelmingly powerful.
This is basically why I feel that the story was rushed. Zenos should have been end of 4.1 or 4.2 boss. Everything just seemed...lacking. Was the story good, if otherwise rushed? Yes. Should it have been more flushed out with other concerns/situations? Definitely. Do I think I know why they did it? Probably because of all the people who non-stop complained about the mass amount of filler quests(yes, there were tons, but it could always have been worse...those quests helped build the story...if in a slightly annoying manner).
