Although, if you play more casual which I assume he is, that weapon will improve the everyday gaming session significantly while farming lower torments where there's no need for perma-AC. Don't be blinded by the BiS-build that you have in your head. In my opinion, he didn't ruin that weapon at all.
I absolutely agree that you shouldn't be blinded by "BiS builds". However, way more people are blinded by sheet DPS. Which is surprising because it's been many months since we all discovered that pure sheet DPS doesn't say much about your character. If this weapon had an above average damage roll he definitely ruined it. High CDR builds can do sooooo man amazing things, especially for classes that can create builds which require you to have 5 of 6 spells in your action bar to be cooldown spells.
I'm like really really close to lock this thread. If the personal attacks don't stop this will be closed immediately.
Only reason I'm leaving this open is because some of the CDR vs damage discussion might be interesting to others. But stay friendly please...
