I think the last update was in favor of light/heavy equipment.
Enemies hitting harder but having lower defences doesn't affect us that badly in the long run.
On the other hand since they hit harder light & heavy equipment may actually come in handy.
Perhaps it's a way to make them more useful.
Nope. Hitting harder mean absorption is less effective, and mitigation has the same value of evade in the long run regardless how hard they hit.
Plus Heavy have a weakness for magical attacks, so it becomes less effective (only light has resist)
The real reason why they hit harder is because you can run with endless scrolls, so 25% physical/magical extra mitigation.

I never had a problem with my heavy armor, other people seemed to. It's been working fine for me all this time. But it was beating End of Days with all the legendaries where I couldn't do it tank style. And to tell you the truth, using the lighter pieces doesn't seem to make that much difference against them. I can actually kill them faster with my heavy gear but I take harder hits and have to cure myself more often which uses up MP, which is the main reason why I can't clear EoD.
That's because you're using DH gear, the only gear that can be close to silk is kevlar.
Look it's not like you can't play with heavy gear, but high evade silk it's much more effective, I mean I have pieces of 6-8% evade, and my burden is close or below 20 points (depends of weapons), so I'm faster, and you can't have that much % of mitigation with heavy/light.
