Title: Excessive damage from an add in Deadmines – Is this normal or a scaling issue?

Hello, I would like to report/ask about a possible issue with the damage dealt by some NPCs in Deadmines.

This is the second time I have attempted this dungeon, and on both occasions something very similar happened: a single add practically killed me instantly due to extremely high damage.

As you can see in the screenshot, the Defias Henchman dealt the following attacks to me:

• 565 physical damage (76 absorbed).
• Shortly afterwards, 379 physical damage, with approximately 326 overkill.

In total, I received around 944 damage within a very short period of time.

What seems strange to me is that I had two healers in the group, and a druid had also applied Rejuvenation to me. Despite this, the damage happened so quickly that there was practically no time to react.

I have completed other classic dungeons and have not experienced such high damage from a single add. Therefore, I would like to know whether this behavior is actually normal in Deadmines, or if there could be an issue with NPC scaling or damage multipliers.

Could you please confirm whether the Oaf Lackey is supposed to be capable of dealing approximately 500-600 damage per hit under these circumstances?

I am not sure whether this dungeon is currently undergoing any stat recalibration or balancing adjustments, so I would rather ask before assuming that this is a bug.

I have attached the combat log screenshot so the issue can be reviewed.

Since I believe this death may have been caused by excessive NPC damage or a possible scaling issue, would it be possible to review my case and, if it is confirmed to be a server-side issue, restore/revive my character?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Got killed by the same NPC (Oaf Lackey), too much damage when there are three of them before second boss. It is necesary to do an "extreme harcore strategy" to complete this part.
