Summary0004956: Make Storm Dash more distinct from Storm Rush
DescriptionI know these two kind of provide options for the player, rather than being designed to be used in tandem but given the (welcome) change to storm rush to allow it to be of variable length now, storm dash has hardly any utility at all.

My proposal is that you make storm dash more of a tactical, dodge-type spell by reducing the distance traveled (and perhaps the mana cost) and keeping the momentum from that spell (as opposed to rush) far lower as well.

You could perhaps even then make it possible to use both in the same load-out: a double-tap of a direction (when both are in your inventory) could always activate storm dash; a tap and hold could always activate storm rush.

Thanks!

* Storm Dash now costs 9 MP per use instead of 14, and can also now be used every 0.66 seconds instead of every 1.5 seconds.
** It also now only lasts for 0.5 seconds instead of 0.5 seconds plus 0.5 seconds per tier, and it now has a level cap per tier like storm rush does.
** Lastly, it only boosts you to 300% of your normal speed now, instead of 500%, making it easier to control this.
