Weapons not dealing damage after winter update

After the recent update, my weapons rarely do any damage to enemies, as if they're not hitting at all. I've had this issue on all enemies I've fought. I've tried using a mystic longbow with implosion arrows, mystic blunderbuss with fire ammo, and axepick so far. Sounds and animation activate like I have hit the target, but no damage occurs. On rare occasions an attack will hit and do damage, but it is very rare. Side note, recruits seem to have disappeared from every realm I go to, but I don't know if this is by design or not.
