More damage in 1.36?

Hey, was combat changed in 1.36? I feel less tough and more vulnerable to damage since I patched Enemy attacks seem to do more harm!

There are some changes in items, but it shouldnt be so different

Most "serious" change I noticed at moment is that one-hand axes are now a bit faster (still slower than swords).
Not that it should seriously increase overall damage in combat, but considering that axes are common amongst low-tier troop and are good anti-armour weapon you could be hacked down pretty fast even in best armour.

this was the case in  the old game too. axes are effective against armor and cheap. so low level troops should always be regarded as potentially dangerous. i charged a large group of low level axe wielding men,( feeling invincible in my wolf lorica and heavy armor accesories, brandishing a frisian axe, the strongest weapon in game imo) i was surrounded on foot and cut down.
