I hate to say it, but if you are going to balance this power, do so now. In relation to Archery it is hands down the best Blast set for Defenders in the game. The damage is good, the side effect is good and the low endurance usage is better. It is very likeable and has great potential.

I have to agree. I haven't played this set beyond level 6 but if the descriptions of the powers are accurate, having a set like this which has access to Aim, and has damage resistance debuff in key powers to be followed up by other high damage attack powers, might be imbalanced. Damage resistance debuff has been in the hands of Defenders and Controllers for the most part. There are Radiation Defenders that can debuff defense but no Radiation Blasters. Already I can see combinations with Radiation for Defenders and EM for Blasters making this set very powerful. As a Radiation/Sonic after using Radiation Infection, Lingering Radiation, and Enervating Field, every hit this set would score more and more damage. Add in Aim and Screech (disorient) and you'd basically have the Defender Radiation Secondary set except that this set does quite a bit more damage. For PvP with the reduced defense people have in Issue 5 this set would basically be for cutting down Controllers, Blasters, and other Defenders extremely quickly. Aim --> Disorient -- chain of attacks that continously debuff damage resistance. With Sonic/EM you have a lot of disorient attacks, with Aim, Buildup, Powerboost, and Total Focus. Once a single disorient lands, it's pretty much over.
