As much as I am of the same sentiment that "these changes" seem to be geared towards making it tougher for lower levels (my main character is still only 11), I think this thread already illustrates two important points.
1) Mosh has eluded to further changes that may be incoming. As with any balance change, while we can only form opinion based on the part of the picture we can see at any given time, there -is- a big picture.
2) Something I've always believed in is this: if you don't like the way something is, try to provide an alternate solution or suggested course of action, or hold your peace. That's why I haven't said anything on this subject, even though I feel very much affected by it; because I don't know how I -would- like to see it changed, to have it change for the better.
Please don't take from this that I'm trying to flame anyone. My hope is that by pointing this out, we can see some constructive points in this thread, rather than just stating what we don't like about the changes.
P.S. (after more posts came in) Questions for clarification are good too!
