In which way is it pushing you out of the game? This balance patch is targeting raid content where you have literly every boon maxed out on you, or at top tier pvp where people are doing stuff i probably can't even imagine. If you are not a raider or striker you will not notice any difference, since banners in open world are useless, and everything else in this patch is pure buffs for open world players.
Where do you see raid like open world content? The only boss that requires you to do anything more than auto-attack is battle for Jade Sea meta, Tripple truble that came out over 7 years ago, and marionnette that noone is playing anymore, and even that can be completed with minimum input from open worlders and "hi dps" players.
I just don't get why would a patch that makes you and your part of the game easier/more-accessible (by giving you new things to play with, and doesn't remove anything from you) push you away from game.
