Of course, as anyone should have been able to predict, this would end up having other unfortunate side effects ... like for example w/p changing from being a bit inferior to a nice greater bane weapon, to being the best of the best. And again, instead of addressing the original issue and undoing the screwup with creature hitpoints, we go and again patch the rules, this time changing how w/p works. And so on...

- We create a ridiculously powerful transmuter that makes a lot of other shroud weapons look pathetic in comparison, nevermind anything non-shroud, so instead of addressing that specific problem, let's change the rules so that transmuting no longer transmutes. As is to be expected, this now leaves certain playstyles out in the cold to do decent dps against many enemy types (archers, kensais, to a lesser extent two-handed weapon types, handwraps using monks)

There are sadly more examples...
So sad, and unfortunately so true

Even an entire thread on the issue
