I'm pretty upset about this from a PvE perspective, but also understand why it's needed for PvP. It's a shame I just started to gear out and raid with my Hatred Sin and going from mid to low tier overall damage to 2nd to worst, as a melee on top of it all, just makes you not want to bring the class anymore. I may be over exaggerating, but time will tell I suppose. I really enjoyed Madness Sin and I am enjoying Hatred as well, so I hope the spec still remains viable from a DPS perspective.
