Possible Berserker's Power Nerf inc
There is only 2 Stages with the new Elite, So this could explain the lowered percentage.
Anyway they are going to rework all traits for all Provisions, I hope that they don’t touch Core Warrior and maybe revert the Shield’s unjustified nerf back.
Judging from what I’ve seen, it seems they did touch Core Warrior so…guess we’ll see if the changes were for the best.
It is 7% at Stage 1, as Spellbreaker is only capable of doing Stage 1 Bursts (that way, the 2nd bar of Adrenaline can be spent on Full Counter and vice versa).
There is a huge balance patch coming up. So we will have to wait and see. For example, Reaper is getting completely reworked into a Power build.
I noticed this as well. Also, while watching The Wooden Potatoes Path of Fire Post Show, it appears that the Spellbreaker will only get 2 stages of adrenaline worth 10 adrenaline a piece. Each burst (F1 or F2) consumes 1 stage of adrenaline. Therefore, only applying 1 stack of Berserker’s Power and 1 stack of Adrenal Health (if traited) upon a successful hit. However, you can add additional stacks of Berserker’s Power and Adrenal Health to the original stack as long as you successfully land a burst skill before the original stack expires.
Like Mikeskies said above, we’ll have to wait and see how things turn out.

Except that’s not how it works right now. If you’re playing Berzerker, when you use a Primal Burst you get the full 20% damage increase, and that is a 10 adrenaline burst. The same is true for Adrenal Health, 3 stacks for a Primal Burst, and if you Do a 1 Bar burst outside of Berserking, it gets replaced with 1 stack.
It looks like its getting an overall reduction, which isn’t good tidings for Power Warrior in PvE.
I have a feeling, Berserker’s Power is getting changed to stack up to 3 times, which would accommodate Spellbreaker while keep it the same for Berserker. Adrenal Health already stacks up to 3 times.
Spellbreaker can Burst, Full Counter, Burst quickly, so if you land your burst chain, you’re good to go.
Looking at WP’s barrier video, Berserker’s Power stacks now at 7%/14%/21%.
Also, Myxam, that is because primal bursts count as level 3 bursts while still costing 10 adrenaline. The first minor for spellbreaker specifically states that spellbreakers are incapable of bursts higher than level 1. The same video shows us that primal bursts are getting a nerf to level 1 as well.
If you start watching here, WP got only 1 stack of adrenal health upon landing an decapitate. A few seconds later, he lands another decapitate and he gets another stack of adrenal health.
The question is now, how it stacks. Does each stack last 10 seconds or does with every added stack the cooldown refresh?
So, bottom line, it’s a buff if anything. Being able to stack like Adrenal Health is much better than having the bonus value replaced upon each burst.
