Change awakening storms to get rid of the Arc Discharge bug

[Grot-amanthul]

Many of the recent bugs surrounding Tempest are a result of getting either multiple charges, or charges back to back, like the currently prevalent of the arc discharge bug.
Also for me the added tracker of awakening storms procs and the resulting setup prior to a run for optimization is just not fun. And the extra variance of random procs is also not the greatest feeling.

I propose a change of the awakening storms note to instead read the following: “Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning strike your target with lightning for (50% of Spell power) Nature damage.
Tempest now only needs [30 maelstrom weapon/225 maelstrom] spent to replace lightning bolt.”

This would net a very similar amount of overall casts of tempest, while smoothing out the rotation, make it more predictable, reduce the variance, reduce unnecessary setups, and all the while would fix several bugs in the process.

Obvious the number of the newly required resources to trigger tempest can be adjusted to make it neither a buff nor a nerf.

I would like to hear your opinion on the proposed change, thanks for reading!

Needing an addon to track tempest procs was a negative point that they received feedback from the beta. I believe a simple buff display can fix that in the majority of cases.

I feel that a solution like what you shared would be really nice. Awakening storms provide another layer of rng on top of rng resets where it is not needed that much. Reducing the activation stack by X seems more in line.

Also I cannot say that I like arc discharge that much. We are already using a mechanic that we make LB/CL instant cast. Giving us another buff to track that does the same as msw seem redundant.

But anyway, those issues are gonna be looked at a long enough time frame that it does not really matter now. What matters is them fixing the current bugs.
