Yeah yeah, Eyonix and co. justifies it with saying it can be "gamed for an improvement". I'm not backing him up on that, but for wild comparison: Did anyone mention or notice that mages can't Icy Veins under Herosim anymore? That's right. And as far as I've seen, we haven't made any big scene out of it, while it's _still_ ~1% dps loss for our class - although from a PVP perspective, it's simply justified.

Just bear in mind that this game isn't about PVE anymore.

IMO the LT change is the proverbial straw. People were already annoyed with PVP changes having detrimental effects on PVE and here comes 2.4 with the PI, Icy Veins, LT, etc changes all at once.

In reality none of those changes are giant PVE nerfs (How many people actualy raided with PI priests?) and they're definitely not the first of such changes. It's just that a number of people are fed up with the spirit of the changes and are voicing their opinions.
