Granted, this is probably less of an issue in Feast, especially so with healers who know what they are doing, but I can't say that I imagine anyone who complained about their damage was anything but new to PvP.
I'm leaning towards this mindset as well. Yeah, their Tri Disaster-Fester-Stuff-Deathflare combo hurts, but like you pointed out, it has very simple counters. But I do take issue with how potent their DoTs off of Tri Disaster are and how they can potentially spread it to the whole enemy party. I wonder how people would feel about SMN if they nerfed Tri Disaster in PVP where the potency of all the DoTs were only a % of the hard-casted versions of all 3 spells. The option to Fester/Bane/whatever would still be there, but the DoTs wouldn't be nearly as potent...
