Yes, this legacy did get reduced but it wasn't much, if I recall. In my experience, I like to group damage nouns into groups of three, like DISMEMBERS, MASSACRES, MANGLES.. etc. When I took this legacy then, without changing any weapons, or any other condition, then I'd typically go up to MANGLES, DEMOLISH, DEVASTATES. Which can make a pretty fair difference in PK, or PVE. These damage nouns would be the average, what I'd hit most often. Of course, I'd still hit above and below them too.

I believe this legacy used to be 10 damroll, if you add in Berserk for 10 or 15, or whatever it is, then cry which I believe used to be 25, and if you are a rager with a poncho, another 11 or 9 or whatever it used to be, possibly add in thirst also, for another 10 or 15, then a couple of high damroll weapons, then you're rocking some pretty high burst damage. 64 at the minimum without weapons or racial str, which is anywhere from 3-9 damroll. Some dwarf forged weapons can get up to 11 dam each, that could put you at 86 with only a poncho and weapons, and of course you'd still have to add in damroll from natural str.
