Balance Changes in Content Update 2.1.0

Can you stop creating GG legacy items, seriously...
Take responsibility and retro-active any changes.
And once again, nothing for the few folks that give a damn about Summon Skeletons. GGG, i've played skellies, it's my darling build and i usually do decently well with it, but can it for once get some love? The new +2 minion level staff is nice, but hardly enough (and for non-staff users or others who decide stuff like Dying Breath is superior than +1-2 links)

Skellies are decent, don't get me wrong, but it's not great. They're not up to par with Zombie builds(can't confirm this), Spectre builds, and in particular, SRS builds. You've done an effort to make things less useless (melee splash comes to mind), so why exclude the one minion skill thats behind the others?
Hell, just adding +1 to skellies summoned per cast at gemlevel 10 or 12 could do it, possibly along with a small boost in base movespeed, i've seen a couple of people using spell echo on them (Which i find to be a big mistake), but it makes it clear that people find their skeleton upkeep to be lacking.

Also, on a semi-related subject, Can we please get rid of the roll range on the Apparitions jewel's minion dodge chance? Not getting toproll movespeed is alright, but anything below a 5% dodge chance is immediately vaal-food, and even then, its mediocre at best.

Atleast the melee splash change could be considered a slight buff, since its only a case of +0% and actual aoe vs +45% more dmg instead of the current 16%->7% less dmg and trash aoe vs +45% more dmg.

Buffing bow skils (exept my favorite tornado shot ofcourse) and making physical rangers take even more travel nodes to get out of the ranger start prison

All skills changes are chown or not? Otherwise i would be sad to see no Wild Strike buff (make the elemental part hit the main target for example...).
