The problem with removing energy drain before was that you have to use ruin II to OGCD weav aetherflow spenders outside of dot reapplication, effectively making dumping aetherflow a dps loss. Since broil's cast time was reduced theres no reason to have energy drain because you can dump with lustrate/extra sacred soil since you no longer have to use ruin II to weave OGCD's.
