Janos currently has about 55% of Lian’s damage, consistently. Before the thrall nerf, Janos had slightly more damage than Lian, which made perfect sense since he is a random spawn and Lian is always up at a fixed spawn spot.
Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

Are both Janos and Lian newly tamed? If you compare an old thrall to a new one, they would be different, yes because the legacy thralls kept their old higher damage modifiers.
Hi, R4nd0m, yes, this has happened in the past. Also, existing thralls were reduced (remember the Bandit Leader?).
It appears to be the complexity of changing existing vs changing new that affects which way the devs went. It matters little, because attrition will eventually take over. Wipes, deaths, etc, will slowly kill off the existing ones and all will be in balance, for at least 5 minutes
You can compare old to new by following this process on this page.
Are you sure about that? I assumed all existing thralls got changed retroactively this time around. I know for sure that every one of my placed thrall had their HP nerfed retroactively.
Thank you Jim for your response and all the amazing work you and the wiki team do! It´s so great to have the wiki and all the detailed information available and updated. Very much appreciated!
I know this gem and make regular use of it. My question was not so much about the changes to thrall stats themselves but (a bit off-topic) about the question if it makes any difference when the thrall was tamed (not deployed).
For an example: I have some Relic Hunter Treasure Seekers in boxes, even from summer 2019. If I deploy them, they will always have the actual stats. Only already deployed thralls can keep old stats I think? (That would be the reason why I can´t put down any Vathis the Hierophant any more )
Edit:
Probably it was a misunderstanding and we were talking about already deployed thralls from the beginning.
Hehe, you will have a totally unkillable army of ghost thralls!
But let´s keep them vaulted for some more patches, who knows what happens? And besides - I consider Vathis one of the best gifts available in the game - if you try to deploy him, he simply disappears totally. Who said, there´s no magic in game?
