Why are they broken here and how are they supposed to behave? Makes no sense ashenhand is on a 72 mins timer for a lesser special attack but you get thunder kick at 52 on a 9 mins timer. I read on live it boosts a bunch of specials for 10 ticks but was that implemented at a later date?

The Original Ashenhand was supposed to imbue Eagle Strike with the chance to one-shot your target, which is why its on 72 minute cooldown.

Yeah I saw that digging but it says "under certain circumstances" so good luck finding the conditions and the % chance of happening. Probably closer to assassinate than desintegrate I'd guess but without a post discussing that particular disc it is way too hazy.
