^this. Nin has been meta since it was released in 2.4. In HW its amazing utility was justified by the fact that it was on average the lowest dps in the game, but currently it's the 4th strongest dps on avg and it still bring the same incredible utility (minus goad that it's now shared but since we have infinite tp who cares). It had to be nerfed and reducing the potency of the skill they use more often is the easiest way to do it.
