So far in Act 1, Fort joy battle had no changes except enemies just having extra stat as mentioned.
They do have some neat trick hidden in though like turtle exploding on death where it will either punish you or you can abuse it with teleport to kill the other turtles.
But if you plan on diving into Tactician mode like I am doing right now, you better look up on whatever has changed in the game from the past day of experience. You won't enjoy going into tactician mode and getting gipped while dealing bad damage.
