Get rid of Overwhelming Presence's cooldown

The Overwhelming Presence rework is very welcome, and the concept is very nice, giving you info on Exhaustion perk users and slightly countering items passively.

However, I really don't see the need for a cooldown on it. It really limits it's usefulness because it goes on cooldown regardless of how Exhausted is given.

The effect isn't strong enough to warrant the cooldown, I'd really love to see this perk be useful but at the moment it's finicky.

    I asked myself the same thing when I first read the rework and then I remembered Languid Touch exists. Imagine the free aura reading all the time lol.

    I think the cooldown is necessary for the aura reading, however, the actual exhaustion effect when using an item should not be tied to the cooldown and should be always active. The cooldown could perhaps also be lowered to 20 seconds instead of 25.
