I saw as little as 3 seconds between procs (usually higher though), so I think they just removed the ICD. Definitely makes it pretty interesting and in some ways I think I like it better.
Regarding EotS, yes it scales worse the more crit you get (though the more power/arpen you get helps make up for it) - but if they don't adjust the internal cooldown it will become completely useless.
Cryptic seemed to fail with their keywords. In D&D this is simple. A spell has keywords, if it has the keyword, it gets the bonus. Cryptic, on the other hand, seems to only give spells a single keyword, or sometimes only processes one of them rather than all.
The whole mechanic just seems buggy and often abused in general. There have been times when I hit someone and they mounted up a second later and I was still locked in combat for another few seconds after that.
Maybe not technically a one shot but most classes can kill someone in their initial series of hits before it is possible to regain control of your character.

Back onto the tourney topic. 4 Piece set bonuses. They're broken for a ton of people, not for others. What are we doing about this for the tourney? What if one team has all broken bonuses and my team lucked out and our bonuses all work?
Tonight night Potpourri will fight Guild Breakers - if you want to watch it you will be able to do so here: http://www.twitch.tv/honoraryorange Time: ~9pm PST (I believe, need to confirm)
Tenes are not cheating, nor are they overpowered. Any class who replaces Tenes with other enchants of equal value (Rank 9 crit/arpen) will do just as well, with far higher sustained damage and a tiny bit less burst.
