West Karana mobs

[Regnox]

Since patch, west karana's mobs are extra varied and pathing in ways I've never seen. I see treants almost as soon as I zone in from Qeynos Hills. The Ghoul Messanger is running rather than walking, and it was wiping out the bandit camp in the hills NorthEast of the bandit farm. Had a bandit walk all the way to the zone line of QH. Also on a side not, have been killing lions and have not gotten a single ruined skin. I have like 4 HQ pelts, but even those were rare and most kills resulted in no pelts at all. Hard to tailor patchwork armor without the pelts. Wolf and bear seem normal. Thats just what I've noticed while paying attention today. Have not been to any other karana zones.
