Here's a couple of examples of the AoE reduction. I don't think thats fair at all. The only time i can really get a solid hit on an enemy is when I'm right above them or when they are in a tight space. Just increase AoE. Thats all i want.

The biggest problem with HoS was the fact that you were a nearly unstoppable tank who could toss 6 or 7 nova bombs without worry of reprisal. I think Sunbreakers just got a little too used to the fire-and-forget nature of the hammers, which was entirely too strong. You'll have to place them a little more carefully now. Give it some time and you'll get used to it.
