Primal Bolt Hyper Skill Lvl 150 being Nerfed in KMS

I read this on MapleStory Reddit under New 5th Job skill-Beyond concerning lvl 150 Hyper Skill Primal Bolt for TB's being nerfed in KMS on the Beyond patch update.

If google is translating this correctly they apparently reduced the duration and added a CD to TBs lvl 150 Hyper Skill Primal Bolt.
RIP Typhoon Spam.
I admit with the new Typhoon range it has become ridiculously strong but isn't that a huge change to their mobbing capabilities/play style? With the new 5th Job Skill timing it seems like they had to take a part away just to fit in 5th job.
I guess they kind of had to do that since offensively TBs are more or less complete. Adding more on top of that would be superfluous.
I wonder if the other classes that got skill changes were affected in similar way. EDIT: No other classes got changed.
Also TB leveling to 200 with Shark Sweep and Thunderbolt is gonna be a pain. D: Get your TBs to 200 now.

Oh, it's my comment.
So it turned out that it was changed into a 90s duration 180s cd. So half the time you're using the other 5 skills.
Or you're so strong that you're just using Thunderbolt in the same way as Typhoon.

I see that it's kind of a problem when all strong TBs just spam Typhoon back and forth in every video.
In KMS their Typhoon is faster and they have some sort of jump animation cancel for TBs.

I feel like they should just hit the problem instead with Typhoon's hit box and speed but then we'd never use that new Shark Wave skill.
