The damage of the ability is same as sub assault and bigger than lets say haunting curse. I dont feel liek you are being fair comparing it to damage of spammable.

I feel like it's in a pretty good spot considering the passive boons and that it can be lined up with other attacks for some juicy burst.
Snipe for example currently does the same damage as the bound armaments proc and can be spammed at range.
Increases stam 5%, buffs light attacks, it was already great. Now it also has a damage proc, and you want more??
Hmm.

It's 8% at rank IV.

Could have sworn I saw 10% on my stam sorc earlier today, but I wasn't really focusing on the passive.
Regardless, Bound Armaments is pretty dope. I kinda wish the daggers flew from where they were suspended, or moved into position before rocketing towards the target, but that's a tiny, cosmetic quibble. From a gameplay standpoint, this is a really nice toy in the StamSorc's kit.

I believe you're thinking about Hunt Leader. Eternal Hunt is the roll dodge set.
It does 80% damage of Relentless Focus and takes 4 stacks instead of 5 (80% again), so it is technically balanced. Also remember that the Old Snipe did same damage as Relentless Focus, still RF was considered the best burst skill.
Bound Armaments can not be buffed without straight up making it better than Relentless Focus.

That's true for the base value on a naked template. But, in a same build scenario, is it still 80%? I didn't have a chance to check myself, but I've read on other posts that it scales badly with weapon damage.

WRONG not even close to sub assault not even counting minor berserk.
