I would give revealing strike up for an expose armor renew on eviscerate in a second... and I don't even care if it didn't buff my dps cause there was already an armor debuff.

I hate revealing...

I don't think it would make sense to have the mastery increase the duration of combat-only abilities, because that does not further distinguish it from other trees. We already have 100% more of...

I will say, I have heroic 4pc and heroic Ikfirus Sack and Gangrenous Leggings. I reforged/regemmed all of it just to see which would come out on top.
