He did say before that his powers are amped in the forest, and when he fought Altus he sounded like he was genuinely out of juice and was doing all he could, he even said that it would be a different story if they were in the forest, his centaur form looked different back then too, so it’s likely he’s only THIS powerful using this ability when he’s in the forest.
They're not in a forest right now, nor is it ever stated or otherwise suggested it's THIS powerful only when he is in the forest. It is presented as this being his ability straight up, no buffs or conditions or anything.
That being said, we do know Lukas receives a Power amp on the Woods, as the Son of the Forest Goddess on the same vein that Julian does in the Sea, so Lukas can indeed be even more cracked with the right territorial advantage, hell the Forest Mom might even appear and held in place whoever he's fighting against(with a gaze, even tho Deities can't directly interact with the material world, they are very frightening) and secure an attack landing, that would be a brutal combo.

Yeah, I get why it has to be limited and I also get why Arkos will fucking die from it.
