Dark Mode - Enemy strength and difficulty

I' ve a question about dark mode. I startet my 3rd playthrough. My last one was shortly before the release of the dark mode and I think I alwasy played hard. And I can remember that enemies like the Endriaga queen and the ghosts were quite tough.
Now I play on dark mode and every enemy in the prologue died after one hit (at my first playthrough it took me several tries to kill the soldiers at the ballista). Also Nekkers and Endriagas only need one hit, maximum 2. Is this normal? Is the dark mode that easy?

The only mods I've installed are high res textures and reduced item weights.

I had the very same issue and in my case it was caused by RedKit adventures such as Lykaon alpha. Are you sure you are not using those? Even in the content launcher?

I've no RedKit installed, the only thing showing up under Mods is the extreme flora quality mod, but it is nor enabled.

The problem is the user-side of Redkit, not the development environment.
Was the Extreme Flora Mod enabled when you started the game? If so, it's almost certainly the cause of the problem.

You may want to refer to this thread for further details on the cause, and the solution:

Thank you for the information. What a shame that it only can be solved with starting a new game.
Maybe next time.
