ITA. I've helped more pirates than I can count with the two Thieve's Den quest challenges. I was more than happy to take on the Thugs, Grunts and Veterans and get a few points, as long as I could safely ignore the Cadets, Guards, etc. Now, even though they don't inflict much damage, it does add up.
I was in Fort Dundee on PDR when I first logged on today, intending on going after LVL23+ Officers. (I'm LVL26, so they can still be a bit of a challenge.) But I found I had to worry about the Sergeants and lowest level Veterans, too, because the damage that they could inflict might mean the difference between success and jail.
I am all for them making the game more challenging, but I agree with those who feel that they have taken away a "right" that we have earned.
