Are tenebrous working as intended?

Simple question. Before I invest, are these working as intended. They hit through soul forged, Impossible to catch and through any dodge/blink mechanic. They can proc multiple hits at once. Being the most expensive enchantment I can tell they are good but want to make sure they won't be nerfed.

So I kinda doubt it. I held out for months, and when they still weren't nerfed, decided to deck my toon out with em. Definitely a good investment.
one hint: Stalwart Bulwark
The difference here being that Stalwart Bulwark drops in dungeons, where Tene's dropped only in lockboxes.
Now that people aren't actively buying keys to acquire Tene's, as they no longer drop in the new boxes, I can see a nerf being a possibility, but I still highly doubt it.
And, yes, multiple Greater Tenebrous are truly terrifying, especially on GWFs and TRs. On GWF's the synergy with their highest HP, Regeneration stat, Unstoppable temp HP, 4pc bonuses that grant HP, Lifedrinker enchant etc., is insane! Almost to the point that a GWF cannot claim to be max geared without them...
On TR's, Greater Tenebrous turns the poor or even terribad Path of Blade aoe, into a truly vicious PvP skill and makes TR the best 1v1 class!
Ordinary Tenebrous are not that good though, even multiple ones. I have decimated many opponents with those enchants. Better to use a standard ArP PvP setup than those, I suspect.
As for "working as intended", this is wording consistently used by maintenance devs at Cryptic to change anything (often the most controversial, out-of-the-blue nerfs) and make it seem as if they know what they are doing as well as fool some players, especially new ones. There is NOTHING "working as intended" as far as Cryptic is concerned, so no point worrying about such things or, better yet, do not spend real money in this particular game if such things concern you...
