I was fine with that, because I love doing both in different situations.

But what the list is saying now is:
"We took away pretty much ALL your elemental skills, even though the elemental aspect is what defines the whole class, lore-wise, so you are nothing but a dumb healbot in party AND solo."

That's not what I want to play, so I see no reason to stay.
What I wanted to play is what archer is now: A class able to deal a lot of dmg in one "mode" with hate-controlling skills, but a supporting class in another "mode" (Bard, in this case).
I don't have the motivation though to start Archer from Lvl 1 now though, because all the people I play with don't have low lvl chars, so I'd rather quit than paying for a game which forces me to abandon the class I loved.
This might not be acceptable recompense for you, but just out of curiosity, did you notice that all first tier elemental spells save Blizzard are cross class?
