What changes were made to compensate for uppercut's CC removal?

While leveling a new character using two handed weapons I just learned that uppercut had its stun and knockback removed. I can't seem to find the patch notes for this as I want to know what additional changes were made to compensate 2-handed weapon users for this extreme nerf. What else has changed to the ability along with the stun removal?
End the tedious inventory management game.

    I think its Thieves Guild Patch that they changed it. You gotta admit though it was a very strong ability that had its counters, now it still hits just as hard, but its either the Empower buff or the CC. Seems alright to me, not much of a nerf

    It is a nerf, but a much-requested one. You've no idea the string of WB Nerf threads before they changed it... If you do know then yeah lol

    Sorry Joe but the DS and WB changes did nothing :/ every one in PvP just DS spams now which kinda tells you something that maybe the CC should have been removed all together.

    @UltimaJoe777 hahaha yeah it was pretty bad... But I don't think that it changed the way some people play. Except now instead of WB Spam we get DS Spam :lol: But hey when you play a stam sorc or stam DK you kinda have to right ? Plus, play how you want and don't care what people say ! (I'm the kinda magicka sorc you doesn't put both toggles on his bar and gets told to L2P even though I'm pulling some fine DPS in dungeons and trials/the kinda magicka sorc who uses elegance and spams overload in PvP while getting told L2P) When you don't have a class spammable, you gotta use them weapon skill lines !

    It isn't as wrecking though because they don't have Empower so that's a 20% boost shaved off. May not seem like it did much but that's probably due to power creeps compensating.

    The rest of the skill line got buffed. Picking a Cleave Morph was incredibly tough because they both sounded great. 
    (But Brawler won out because a Stam Shield based on AOE targets hit is OP) I also like the changes to Reverse Slice.

    Perhaps like it is nice that their next WB isn't stronger but as I personally think WB spammers never cared about that empowered buff cause I atleast for me some times still fight 2H users only using DS now for the CC.
