If they're going to make it so that AM powers are top again, rebuff WM back to how they were before, so the support roles can actually do damage with them again.
I literally have no knowledge of the electric am. I am shocked (pun, I know.) I can't make any claim regarding my rotation other than what it does regarding my power return. The damage seems fine. I gave it in the order I use it. Perhaps my power and power crit affect it. i don't know. All I know is I have a great time with it. SOme days I am top of the card, some days I'm middle. But every day it works nicely for me.
I personally feel weapons should not be mandatory like it used to be. Most of the heroes and villains use their fists in the actual comics. So brawling or martial arts is the ideal choice for realism. The ability to choose what to use (WM or AM) should be the option. So while they are not doing away with weapons (PvP is still WM based), they are adding flexibility for all players.
