The comparison between DP and Piecing howl/staggering is garbage, because 10 yards is not enough since the fact it got nerfed and it is garbage compared to piercing howl. When a mage novas you, and he walks 11 yards away then rings or polys you, then you DP him, but u miss cuz of the 10yrds when u thought it was in range. 5yards is melee range, 5 yards is what hamsrting is and what pummel is , I dont get why there is a slow that is 15 but a kick that is 10?, it would be a useful buff to not make the spec useless.
Hmm doesnt seem like a big deal but I kind of like it. Sort of a quality of life thing in a PVE perspective and a small buff in a PVP perspective which should fit well considering they wrecked the talent by making it share CD with pummel.
