Well. Orb is not THE cold skill to use anymore, it is ONE of the cold skills, so yes, in that regard it did get the shaft. However...
Consider that you want to use Blizzard, or Glacial, and consider the investment needed for that. They are powerful choices for the all-out Cold sorc, but you can make orb work with as little as 26(?) points. It is also easy to use, and effective against all non-CI enemies (whereas blizzard is lousy against stationary tergets.
Don't try to PVP with Orb, though :)
