Players from before H&H are freaked out about Lox because they used to be a lot like trolls. They moved about as fast as a troll, telegraphed their attacks like a troll, and could be parried like a troll. Now they run up to you when aggroed which by itself is enough to get an old veteran killed, but because of the new block mechanics it's now very difficult to parry even one of them, let alone two or three at the same time. Was definitely a shock when I logged into my old character and went to the plains for the first time after H&H.
