More combat adjustments

We've just loaded up a small batch of combat tweaks. Here are the details:

Apostasy
--------
* The chance of FIENDS giving haemophilia has been slightly increased.

Pervasion
---------
* DOWNPOUR now does progressively less damage if cast within a small window following a previous cast. This only comes into play with multiple casters.
* DOWNPOUR now incurs a longer balance when doing its maximum damage (i.e. on a fully frozen target).

Sculpting
---------
* POWDERISE has been slowed down.
* POWDERISE now does 25% more limb damage.
* POWDERISE has had its damage increased to keep dps the same given the slowdown. This has slightly increased burst potential.

Shikudo
-------
* KATA now decays if no kata form is performed for some time. Each form resets this timer. This timer is fairly long currently as the intent is more to stop people moving around with prepared kata rather than to cause mid fight resets (20 seconds).
* In light of the above, the limitation that kata would not build against loyal mobs has been reverted.

Weaponmastery
------------
* UNDERCUT has had its limb damage made equivalent to a single slash.
* UNDERCUT has had its failure balance penalty reduced slightly.

Enjoy!

Penned by My hand on the 12th of Aeguary, in the year 782 AF.
