Don't get me wrong, I loved DRK in 3.0 because of its difficulty and rewarding to master, but I don't think the mastery required in 4.0 DRK is satisfying or rewarding at all and it really killed the thematic reasons I played DRK.
As someone whose in the top 50 parses for DRK, this is fairly accurate. Not using DA on Bloodspiller is bad imo, but you typically don't use Bloodspiller that much (from my experience from v1-3.) I really only pop it during the opener for a free delirium or MAYBE whenever I need a delirium, just depends on the fight really but it's never overused in my experience (MT DRK as well so, take that as you will).
