Raid bosses significantly harder?

I normally have no problem doing solo all level 3 bosses except Flareon and Jolteon never tried those. Today I did Muk figured super easy I normally would beat with +60 seconds today I did with 5 seconds after failing once! I knew something had to be wrong I was using all maxed out super effective pokemon.
Has this already been reported?

It looks like the Raid Boss is regaining Heath during the battle, so All of Them are a Lot harder now

Vaporeon....usually can always solo them with 5-10 secs left with 4 Exeggutors..5 if needed all over lvl 30. First time i tried today, with about 70 seconds left did not even have the Vap below 70%...just quit..couldn't believe it. Luckily, two other ppl showed up, lvl 30 and 32..three of us took it down with 25 seconds left. and they were using the right counters.

I thought it was just me! I have been tweaking my line ups to make it more fun as I do Tier 3 with my wife and we have completed all but they are a challenge! Did a Machamp tonight and she had to re-enter and I was down to my 5th when we won with 20 seconds left. This was with the 2 steel moves also!

Last week: here's crappy anniversary box "deal"

This week: Here's a much better raid pass deal! But now we'll make raids 30% harder!

I dunno who's running the show over there, but they're nuts to do this the day before potentially the biggest single day they've had in months.

Not to mention purposefully causing a stardust drought and then punishing people who specifically used their dust to power up teams for the sole purpose of soloing raids. Now what? Plenty of high-level mons and nothing to use them on now? I have to pray somebody joins me on a Muk raid?

Killing the goose that laid the golden eggs. It's the one thing these clowns know how to do.

This makes me feel better... I timed out against a tier 2 wheezing boss today, using optimum counters (I thought, anyway). Don't know if I could have done it the second time - only time I had left - if a teammate hadn't joined in the last minute.

At least I got a FTM out of it - only my second TM ever, 25th successful raid. Maybe they are making TMs more common again?

I lost a thunderbolt Jolteon with a midlevel player, then part of a tough TT raid, app crash, screen froze (TT had animation but I couldn't throw). To make up for it, tried to beat a Gengar with a low level player, I stacked 3 B/C TTs and 2 B/O Gyarados and a good gengar...got it to red but naturally was Focus Blasted. I just tried that once b/c whole ordeal like 2 hours

I'm upset about that. I never soloed a Machamp, since I always had company, but was sure that I can do it on my own. So today in the morning I tried to solo one for the first time, at what happened? I failed miserably. I didn't understand the world until I read about that stupid bug. Anyway, I lost my free pass for today for absolutely nothing.

Yesterday I've soloed a Muk and had 5 seconds left when I beat him (I'm lvl 27). Though I did it with a suboptimal team as I prefer to use 1 of each type of mon. Still salty I wasted 9 premier balls that got dodged and Muk escaped out of 2 and ran.

Will try soloing again today to see if it was changed overnight.
