Dark Knight buff: Patch 3.26 Nice PVE change?

[Cherie]

Dark Knight Dark Arts Recast time has been reduced from 5 to 3 seconds

I know it was mostly aimed at PVP, but do you guys think that is a fairly nice DRK PVE buff too?

I realize you still have the same amount of mana, but, I've found it rather nice to be able to do nearly 2 dark arts in the time I could usually only do one. It seems to make the initial grab of threat much faster if you are main tanking so you can drop grit if it's a fight that allows it. Also, when grabbing a pack of mobs, if you got some good aoe players, you can snap threat on a mob group a whole lot quicker with plenty of time to dark arts a mitigation cool down too.

Pushing the dark arts button even more often leads to even more button pressing and having to press a buff button in front of a attack every single time is a bit awkward (and now get to do it almost twice as quickly)... so does it just make you more prone to sore fingers? lol Not that drk really have to press very fast anyway (poor monks). But then you can use up your mana more quickly and maybe it might be more troublesome for newer DRKs learning the job?

Personally, I like it, I got to do some experimentation with it today. The timing seems a bit easier now for some reason, especially if you are kiting large groups for speed pulls and stuff. I like that its possible to do more damage in a burst (which I assume is the reason it was added in this feast heavy patch).

Thoughts? Was it a "meh" buff, to you other DRK players, or was it a fairly nice change in PVE?
