Hmmm, maybe I will update then. My battery has been draining pretty fast lately. Plus a restore and set up as new might do it some good

Any reasons to skip 8.4 from 8.1.2? Update or not?

Yes, I had the same problem. iTunes gave me the 'this backup is corrupt or incompatible' error. This thread helped me a lot:

I removed the offending file beforehand with ibackupbot, and then did a full restore.
I just finished updating to 8.4 from 8.1 and it was definitely not worth the time and headaches. Nothing disastrous, but my battery still sucks, wifi still doesn't work right and now I'm stuck with the new Music app and a few other changes that I don't care for.
My advice if you're on the fence: don't bother!

Update: after using it for a while, I think updating was a good idea. Although it didn't fix my wifi, battery life now seems better, I'm seeing more free RAM in my RAM Widget, and I think it's a bit "snappier" ;-)

Thanks. I ended up using Decipher. Great tool that saved my bacon.
After reading this i think I'll stick to iOS 8.1.2 for the time being.
This new jail break release seems a little dis jointed.
