Let me show you what's wrong here, in an old fashioned way:

PvE&PvP Changes

Golden Phoenix Strike. Functionality changed to: "Deal some damage to target foe. Inflict Suffering on all foes near you."

Jungle Strike. Functionality changed to: "Deal some damage. See Golden Phoenix Strike for the rest."

Sharpen Daggers. Functionality changed to: "This skill is no longer efficient, as we removed it's only use of being used with a Scythe or Barrage."

Dwayna's Touch. Yes, we basically removed a slightly overpowered skill from good play instead of fixing it.

Meditation. Yes, we basically buffed a balanced skill, because we know that the kind of community we created is so stupid that they can't read skill functionalities.

Natural Healing. See Meditation.

Pious Restoration. We made it a requirement now to stack a load of hexes, and as a side bonus, Drok's Run are now so easy that a parrot with no limbs can do them.

Sand Shards. Functionality changed to: "End effect after 1/4 second: Create a Sandstorm at your location."

Vow of Piety. Functionality changed to: "If you have a Monk in your party, gain 5,000 Health and Energy."

Earthen Shackles. As we are stupid, we made it an easy as hell snare for Searing Flames and RoJ users. You can punch us later.

Ebon Hawk. Of course, most Earth Elementalists were easy, so we decided to make them easier. Y'know, just for kicks.

Confusing Images. Functionality changed to: "Fire-and-Forget Arcane Conodroum."

Illusion of Pain. As this skill was single target pressure and it's drawback could be avoided, we added more pressure without fixing the avoid-the-drawback option, just for you!

Wastrel's Demise. Functionality changed to: "Old Wastrel's Demise+3 spells. Target foe is Poisoned."

Divine Boon. We finally realized that this skill needed a buff. Hurray!

Shielding Hands. We buffed a balanced skill because the Magic 8 Ball told us so.

Melandru's Shot. We finally understood, but instead of fixing the problem, we just nerfed the skill blindly.

PvE Only Changes

Signet of Deadly Corruption. Functionality changed to: "Now Necromancers, Rangers, Dervishes and Mesmers can abuse this to it's fullest. HUZZAH :("

Seed of Life. Deja Vu, anyone?

Selfless Spirit. Functionality changed to: "Healer's Covenant minus Drawback minus Attribute Investment."

Masochism. Non-elite, old version of Cultist's Fervor.

Pets

We just mindlessly buffed them, ignoring what should have been changed. Oh yeah, we made Comfort Animal a requirement, so other pet heal skills are now space clugging.

Summary

We again completley ignored the problems in this game and introduced more Power Creep and less Tactics required. Like every bad update, we buffed balanced skills. Also, say congratulations to our Magic 8 Ball! It has helped us very during this update!
