Claw of Jormag Heatshield
This wasn’t a bug or exploit (all other skills work exactly the same way) why was it stealth nerfed?
Arguably, it was a bug and/or exploit: very few skills that involve shielding can be cancelled and restarted without the usual cool down. And plenty of stuff gets ‘fixed’ without making it into the patch notes (although I do wish they would be more comprehensive).
That said, I agree that it’s worth asking why they changed it. Was it because they think it was bugged? Because they think it was overpowered? Because they think the Clawr of Jormag is supposed to be able to fear half-dozen times in a row?
It’s too bad because the event is fairly dull during phase 1 and this change will just prolong it.

The behavior was inconsistent with how the rest of the game works but that inconsistent behavior was also the only thing that kept the fight from being in ‘stupidly designed’ category.

Agreed.

An unwise change without documenting in the game update notes.
Such changes are better off making the Shatterer encounter less dumb instead.
