Inconsistent HP bonus during Vault of the Nine

After the first half of Vo9, when you go underground, the HP bonus changes dramatically, making the second half far more difficult (especially the final boss). My level 64 HR had about 83k in the above ground portion, and this dropped immediately to 59k as soon as he entered the underground segment. I've seen the drop on my other characters and classes, such as a GF losing more than 40k HP in the transition.
The HP bonus also seems to be tied to current equipment, which means anyone coming in as a fresh level 60, when the quest is available, will basically have unchanged HP: none of their gear will have +HP on it (they have to start running EE stuff to get that, or otherwise get it from outside of the usual playing). I ran a level 62 CW through there who never did any EE stuff and so had no HP gear and he had 24k HP during the underground portion of the quest, which result in numerous deaths; the final boss could easily one-shot him and it took me at least a dozen tries to win.
No changes of gear or buffs occur, and you're ostensibly leveled to 70 either way. But the scaling isn't functioning the same/correctly, regardless.
