Blossom was buffed? When? Are you referring to the 2s recharge thing? If so, that would be my favourite as well ^^

Buff: Moebius Strike, people! It used to be 8s recharge (I never was there for it, but I still consider it one of the best buffs to 'Sins).
Nerf: Maybe Shadow Prison, not sure. But I highly disliked the DP nerf, I thought it was just too hard.

The black lotus strike nerf was funny. People got all pissed...
That's gotta be my favorite. I mean, changing the skill completely from an offhand to a lead attack? Desperate attempt to stop the shadow prison madness. Too bad shadow prison still kicks ass.
Anyways, I don't think I have a favorite buff.. they all seemed kind of minor to me. Nothing really as groundbreaking as say, the WOH buff for monks..

I giggle hysterically everytime I think of the fun that it was. If they hadn't lowered duration by so much or changed it to an enchantment and it might still be a good skill and maybe there'd be more viable and creative builds. So yea that was my favorite buff.
Favorite nerf: SP, Anet continues to throw every nerf in the book at it and it still remains imbalanced because the hex snare means one can add in a long chain and ias to get lucky with. If they really wanted to hurt it they should have made the hex more situational like "Shadow Step to target foe. For 1...8 seconds, if target foe has no enchantments they move 66(maybe 90)% slower. Otherwise this hex does nothing."
On the other hand I kind of like the nerf Deadly Haste got long ago to prevent E/A's from halfrange spiking. So many nerf choices...

Nerf: Burst of Aggression, sure it's not an assassin skill but I'll be damned if i didn't use that IAS for a build that could...

Come on people, no one remembers the buff to Moebius? It used to be 8s recharge! I guess I enjoy the buff more since I'm mostly PvE, and the occasional RA/TA.
