Is it worth dropping the Accuracy and the Additional for Malice and Brutality?

The current answer is: Yes. Rupture and Deadly Sabers damage over time component are flagged as force attacks. As force attacks, they do profit from the talent Malice, increasing their critical chance.
However, the direct damage component from rupture seems not to profit from malice, even if its damage is displayed yellow (which seems to be a quite reliable source for identifying force attacks ingame.).
For the 6% Critical alone, it is not worth sacrificing Accuracy, but combined with Brutality you gain more damage than any other talent you can reach in the middle tree will grant you.

Why 2/2 Phantom over 2/2 Subjugation?

Lets look at the Skill, even without talent: Phantom saves our ass by reducing our aggro and we cannot be targeted anymore, so n1 reasons of death are AoE damage and DoT's.
Obfuscate may save the current Aggro holder, but only at 90% Chance, there is still room for error. When may, PvE wise, Obfuscate make sense? First Case, someone gets Aggro, you may save him. Second Case, Tank drops on low, you may be able to buy 1-2 seconds for healers to rescue the tank. However, in my Raid experience the tank happens to be low all the time or not, so the reduced CD on Obfuscate is no big deal. It may be useful for nuking down the last 1% Hitpoints of an enraged Encounter.
Enrage-Timers are quite close in hard and nightmare Mode, thus a dead DD is wipe same as a dead Tank.

So skilled we have Obfuscate - an unsure save for a tank or an overnuking dd, we may be able if we spam it, to use about 10% time of the encounter, which is quite nice, but at phases were we need it - for example enrage, we will still have only one and get no second, so there is no improvement by the talent.

Skilled Camo on the other hand buys our healers 3 seconds for _sure_ to heal us.
it can be used to take pressure from healers in massive AoE damage situations, it makes us able to dodge certain Bosses abilities and stay melee much longer.
And we can still use Obfuscate when it is necessary.
