Pet classes usually find things much easier.
Many of the [3] are fairly easy for any class just like the skull/rares.
A few have mechanics that are easy second/third time or if you have 
bothered to research, but who researches every quest? Something 
interruptible that restarts cast immediately so not really 
interruptible, that sort of thing.
This early on there are usually a few people around or arriving soon.
Perhaps that biases the number, maybe more are actually quite hard. Just 
you don't need to go to the trouble of groups forming right now.
And you get credit/loot even if you die just so long as someone kills it 
before it resets.

A fire drake in north arak gave my melees some trouble, on a hill very 
limited room to move and avoid a very severe cone. The hardest thing was 
actually finding it in all the twisty turny valleys and hills.
