Abomination size scaling has been reduced
The goal with most of these balance changes was to slow down the pace of combat to allow players to see more of their builds, since builds that try to kill the enemy as fast as possible (especially with true damage) seemed to start to dominate the meta. Overall I think it is healthier for the game if fights take a little bit longer.
