Why "fix" Stormfist?

This monster set is one of the few left that does good damage and even fewer that can be used by bow characters. It's damage is not so far above the few other monster sets still used that it is breaking the game in any way. I realize most are using builds with a Mythic anyway but this seems petty. ZoS is just throwing yet another set that could be used onto the ever growing -Never going to be used again pile- and I don't see why. Sad to see another set be "fixed" into oblivion.

    Yeah did we really need to throw Stormfist in the gigantic pile of useless dps monster sets? Should the only choice be Zaan?

    The more I checking the forums the least I want to check out actual patch notes.

    It makes sense to fix an unintended damage interaction, but it highlights how the set needs a big buff.

    Considering the power mythic items have, there should be no way monster helms should be getting nerfs (PvE-wise). Majority of helms need massive buffs....
    Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.

    Yeah this is really bad now:

    DPS is comparable to Maw on Live.

    This was once a situational set for me, as it scales well in solo as well as mobility+aoe fights, but now it's just not enough damage to be used over any other decent option.

    This actually behind Iceheart now, which is kind of hilarious considering Iceheart also grants a crit line, a larger AOE radius, and a free damage shield every 6 seconds.
