The changes were PVE driven, there were issues with Passive Defenses being massively overpowered in PVE from where we wanted them to be. Basically folks were aoe farming mass piles of critters with no danger of ever dying, basically people were able to handle more than 2x the intended sized encounters, which obviously breaks the game because instead of things being challenging and fun fights people could just plow through everything without having to look at their life, consider tactics, escape from time to time, etc.
