Oh, yes, I play on the core but I switched down the difficulty option to make it so the enemies and DCs are not that insane. I have one on pure core for the achievements and the challenge, but not the other characters.
The astounding DCs, saves and CMDs of the enemiesin core or above makes some abilities of the trickster path or some save-or-suck spells, for example, technically unusable unless you specialize your character on using them. We play tabletop PF and some of the stats above normal were not the ones I am used to.
I do not enjoy much the difficulty based on huge enemy stats (there are plenty of games that do that already) and it makes some abilities pointless. Luckily in Wotr you can lower that but keep the enemy increased numbers, more encounters, enemy damage, extra enemy behaviours etc in the difficulty options.
