Nobody liked this change, it actively makes resource management harder than it already was, and it makes the spec miserable when it happens at bad times, aka often.

Make the talent node a choice node, where one version will auto use, and the other version on use only. It’s such a simple fix that makes everyone happy.

While were at it make tea not give mastery at all anymore and tune specs around that or even better maybe just delete tea all together

Thistle tea should not be a mastery buff or damage buff at all. It should be what it is, an energy regen skill. As long as it has a damage modifier tied to it, it will continue to be used for that alone in most cases like how sub just macros it into dance.

It’d be kind of interesting to see a talent which converted Crimson Vial into Thistle Tea and removed its energy cost, causing “Crimson Vial” (now Thistle Tea) to restore 100 energy over 4 seconds.
The Rogue loses the ability to heal itself, but i gains access to a powerful energy regeneration mechanic.
Just a thought.
