I wish it stays that way that will be UBER.

Blizzard Blue posts havestated that Destruction will be the highest warlock PvE dps spec, due to the lesser utility it provides to the raid when compared to Affliction and Demonology.
+5% crit in destro for a single talent point? That seems way over the top.
I expect this will see some serious tweaking before it is put in place.

Except to get that +5% crit you have to spend 5 points on Ruin to get the same bonus it used to offer for one point. Basically, NOTHING changes for Destro, Demo and Affliction can now spend 5 points on bringing crits up to double damage instead of spending 5 points on gaining 5% more crit.
I strongly approve of this change.

Oh, I'm not disapproving of it. Ruin is probably going to be more beneficial to the other two specs than Devastation is - particularly Demo.
I'm just thinking that a straight swap in cost and talent tree position doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Ruin becomes much more expensive than it should and Devastation much less. Even linked this goes against how Blizzard tends to attempt to build their trees.
Putting Ruin high enough in Destruction to make it available to the other trees could work, but I expect there will be more to it than JUST putting it higher into the tree and making it cost more.

Ruin covers all crits, not just one spell school. 5 points is not "much more expensive than it should be".
Again, all this really changes is Aff and Demo who wish to subspec into Destro. Destro still gets both talents for the exact same number of points, which is fair.
