    Difficulty damage sponge or skill

    Pretty much the title is there really a skill scale or do enemys just have bigger health pools?

    My experience is that they also use more special moves/abilities and also fire/poison. But other than that, they don't seem more skilled.

    If by skill means they avoid more your attacks and use more special moves (like red moves) and retreat towards their friends instead of chasing you alone, and ducking / taking cover faster and more often if you shoot with the bow, then yes they do all those.

    Also they have more HP / armor, and you need poison or fire damage to chew through that HP at acceptable rate. Otherwise you can dump on hard up to 3x Rank 2 OP combos into a simple grunt and he's still alive and will drink a potion (similar to your heal).
