Swordsman Archive

I guess more of a brawler issue, but I'm a swordsman so here is where I stay =+)

I find it insanely more difficult to tank now after patch 17. They were supposed to lower the mobs maximum damage per hit and make more damage over time. All that they have done it seems is increase creature damage across the board. Has anyone else experienced this?

I tank with a full set of RIS and improved center of being on at all times.
