One with the Storm passive bugged

One with the Storm is a passive on the skill tree that says : "Quarterstaff skills that consume Power Charges count as consuming an additional Power Charge".

I'm using the Charged Staff skill to consume Power Charges, i have maximum of 3. When i consume at 1, it counts as if i had 2, if i consume at 2, it counts as if i had 3, so that part is working.

However, when i consume at maximum 3 charges, it doesn't count me as if i had 4 but still 3 (it should count 4, even if it's above my maximum of Power Charges).

+1

It would be nice to have this fixed or clarified.

Currently the node has very little value when used with charged staff, as I'm pretty much always doing charged staff at 3 power charges, and getting 3 charged staff stacks, so this node is doing literally nothing 90% of the time. It would have more value if it would give us 4 charged staff charges from 3 power charges like the wording suggests it should.

If this is working as intended, then this node has very little value without alot of extra maximum power charges... and the wording should be clarified to:

"Quarterstaff skills that consume power charges count as consuming an additional power charge. This may not exceed the maximum number of power charges."

Alternatively, if they don't intend to exceed the max, they could make the node semi-valueable without exceeding the max by making it:

"+1 to Minimum Power Charges"

..which would behave somewhat similar to how it works now (you would have one more charge than otherwise, but not more than max), with the addition that power charges would never be zero. Though this would remove some of the engaging excitement "ohh crap" of being at zero power charges, so I don't favor this route.

As of my reply, node is still not clarified or fixed.

I second what Kuro said, that this node should be revamped to make it more valuable for being so far on the tree. Or... GGG can add +1 Maximum Power charge so we can finally get 10 maximum charges!
