Hi Megamieuwsel, thanks for the question. Nothing has been modified or changed regarding the difficulty of The Gauntlet or Conquests other than fixing the bug where enemy gladiators were not being assigned skills which is why your gladiators were able to do it solo with relative ease in the past. This bug had been present for awhile it turns out, so it is possible you've only known these areas of the game to be easy so it is understandable why it may feel like there was an increase in difficulty with the recent update. The current level of difficulty of The Gauntlet and Conquests are back to what they were when first introduced a couple of years ago up until the bug was introduced. The good news is many gladiators defeated them in the past and continue to do so now. Careful ally selection that complements your gladiator's build and good use of strategy, build type and gear selection can go a long way in being successful in these challenges. I'll make a note to look at the issue you are reporting regarding some of your gladiators hanging when running the gauntlet.

Good luck in the Pit!
