This should only really be the case if you're the invading party though, which I don't think is that bad. If you invade random people, you should probably expect them to have white phantoms around. But hopefully, the revamps will also make ranged, magic, or just brute force tactics more of a viable strategy so you aren't as dependant on parries and backstabs as DaS is.
