I played the game around release date and play now again with the addons. But I noticed that the combats in the late game are unbelievably hard, the combination shieldmaiden and slaver is deadly, because the maiden reduces damage nearly to zero and the slaver gives much damage from the second row. I cannot remember that the combats were so hard in my first game, did anything change until this time?

And one really frustrating thing is, that I actually cannot use some characters in the combats as supporters anymore like Moira or Parvaneh (for making the combats a bit more exciting), because the enemies in the combats in the late game resist nearly everything that they use. I think the opposing resisting-chance should be reconsidered... I like hard combats, but complete abilities shouldn't become nearly useless.
