"OH! Here comes a shaman! i better put on all this #### so he doesn't rot me as easy!"

You only think that is bad because you're not playing the shaman. If you don't have to make tactical choices or prepare before combat then the game boils down to class match-ups, having an uber set and skill %'s.

If anything I'd increase the deadliness of various skills but then allow counters. So that you need to understand your enemy and prepare to fight them rather than just bash spam with das ubergear.
