I may be thinking too much as a scrapper here, but I was extremely disappointed to find that the stalker version of DM lost both of its AoE attacks. Why was this done? The natural counterpart of Dark Armor retained its AoEs that would cause a stalker to be unstealthed, and The Spines set still has those area attacks.
In addition to the accuracy debuffs, I always saw DM as a vampire set. Now 2 of the 3 leeching powers are gone. I was even more disturbed to find that Soul Drain was replaced with Build Up which is potentially less powerful and doesn't last nearly as long. I can't even begin to think of DM without Dark Consumption. That power got my DM/SR scrapper all the way to 50 without ever needing to take the fitness pool and I am darn proud of that. This neutered version of my favorite powerset has sapped out all of its originality and charm and instead made it a poor man's Martial Arts.
