Yeah, that's the specific part I was talking about, even. I had to skip it, too. Two skeletons with the massive debuff is bad enough, but three was rough at that point in the game. I could take one down no problem, but it got rough from there.
Yeah we need to re-balance the combat for sure.
So far I've had an easy time with Combat except for the 3 skeletons in the beginning.
