Hm, my best damage with a Phorkos was 3k... so I'm impressed by it
I'm only using it for the +skill really
I think I agree with you on the -100%recharge - it makes every skill instantly available. Even 80% recharge max would be lots better than it is now.
Still, the community will decide what will be changed in the balance patch, but good arguments should be used for any change.
