i just want to say that this is the perfect way to pose a question about talent specs.
"rate my build" gets the response "1/10 - read the stickies"
of course, the stickies don't explain everything and it's easy to miss the reasons why one particular choice was made rather than another one which might seem to be a better option at a glance. linking the build you're thinking of, being well aware of what it is you've done differently to the cookie-cutter and asking specifically why the choice in question is made in the cookie-cutter spec is exactly the way to get a useful answer.
as mejjad says, ruin is there for the shadow bolts. i would guess that your misunderstanding stems from not realising that SBs are an important part of the affliction rotation.
also, as fmatt says,whenever you drop some talents to gain others you have to weigh up gains and losses. in this case the gains are practically zero (in pure DPS terms (and what else is there really?)) while the losses are really very large.
ruin is an incredibly strong talent. if it still kept it's old slot as a 21 point talent we would have some difficult decisions to make regarding haunt.
