OK so after soloing hard for awhile I have noticed a major change on the Veteran Soldiers.
It seems that you can no longer headshot them through their shield OR hit their legs/feet while they have their shield up. I have also noticed that you can't as easily use auto block on them with a melee weapon. This has made soloing ALOT harder as I now have to wait for them to get close enough to almost strike me so I can headshot them and risk dying OR keep shooting the shields until it breaks.
Am I just losing my mind or has anyone else noticed this as well?
EDIT: I have confirmed my findings and it also takes me 13 arrows to break the shield. I've also noticed that it sometimes takes more then 1 headshot to get the kill. RAAAAAGGGGEE other then farming being a pain in my @$$ now I'm very happy with all the other changes I've seen and I'm very anxious to see what the new bows look like. Thanks devs and community for such an interesting and fun game!
