First of all I'd like to say that I am very appreciative of SE adding monster levels next to their name, thank you for that!

This answers a few questions I've had previously but now it raises another. Is Even Match an Even Match anymore? For example: The old "con" system of colored bubbles showed Yellow to be Even Match, per SE. When I was rank 36 I went to Mistbeard Cove and found that every Bigmouth Orobon conned yellow to me. The fight was appropriately difficult for something that should have been even to me.

Now, with the true ranks being shown I see that they are between 40 - 44. Much higher than my rank 35 at the time. A rank 36 monster would then, I would say, be more of an Easy Prey level.

I'm using [dev1027] (Monster Attributes) as a tag because this makes me wonder... Should monsters be made stronger than they currently are? There is a lot of talk of things in the game being too easy in general...
