Nearly 3 weeks since OP started that topic and I still don't see "a lot of stam users coming in here who don't want to adapt...". Are you just stiring things up to feel like you fight the good fight? ;-)

. I'm not against this, in fact it would be intriguing; however, I use trap right not it would just be replacing a stam skill with a mag skill which would fit my identity as a magicka user, instead of a clunky stam skill.

I totally get why you want to use a magic skill on a magic toon. Not sure what that has to do with putting a damage proc on CA. Personally I would not want the proc linked to light attacks, maybe every 4th magic skill you use procs a damage burst. Something. Anything but another dot. I wouldn't want it to be just a rip off of frags or grim focus.

That is sounding pretty similar to Spell Orb, which procs damage after 5 casts of Accelerate or Elemental Weapon. I’m not sure it would really matter anyway, bar space is so valuable with the new DoTs that Channeled Accel would be nearly impossible to fit. Maybe it could have a niche use if something like Minor Berserk or Major Evasion was added for the 36s duration.
Scalding Rune is much more likely to earn a bar slot (since it can be used as a DoT, a semi-spammable, empowers, and gives decent passives for slotting). I definitely support adding Minor Force to it.

Scalding rune does not need a cost change for several reasons, including minor force should have been on it from the very start just like trap beast.
It has a 2 second trigger
The radius is 3 meters which is incredibly tiny.
The aoe DoT is much smaller than any other DoT, quick example eruption does 5k dps over time while scalding rune does roughly 2.5k.
The "spam" damage is less than other spams.
The other effects are mage guild passives and shouldn't be taken into account of the skills cost itself.
