Yeah Draugrkin is a unique set with a kiss-curse design. It's not OP or over performing in any way. Pulse gankers have already been reigned in with the anti-stealth on Crystal Weapon, the proc categorization so it doesn't benefit from Shadowy Disguise crit, and the arcanist skill only stipulation on Treastise.
This set definitely didn't need a nerf, seems to be a bit of an over correction to the pulse ganking builds, some of which don't even use this set. The current change just makes it completely worthless, which is a shame given how many worthless sets there are in the game.
