hush! We just got the bestest change to Thundering Presence! A 4 second speed buff and increased dmg only for 4 seconds, meaning every 4s we get to smash hotkey for more stam dumping! Whereas the noobs running Boundless Storm get penalized with a 7.5s buff, noobs! /sarcasm Other than Streak do we even use Magicka? I think I know what morph I'm gonna stick with...
I loaded up decently with weapon power and stamina on the PTS v16 template.
22.7k stam, 2921 weapon damage (with Rally), 65 points in Mighty ( <-- I should have tested if that affected the damage)
Damage during the first 4 seconds of Thundering is 1.1k regular, 1.7k crit, vs the zombies south of BRK. The speed boost is OK, the problem is that it is commonly used at the same time as Sprinting. This will drain Stam in a hurry with Thundering, while it still synergizes perfectly with Boundless.
It's a stamina drain as many predicted. I find myself missing Boundless already. One of the only things I liked about Thundering is that the armor buff lasted 23 seconds, which I liked to pair with Evasion. They even took that away and gave that duration to Boundless.
Early indications is that this buff is a fail.
