Are we certain of this? I know Lightning Rod was supposed to be set up that way from other people's insistence, but I can find no evidence to support this. The closest I can find is Thunder Strike, and that only differentiates between direct target the power is activated on and everything within its AoE range.

The fact that one power does it, is reason enough to believe the same could be implemented for a second power, or a third.

That's just it - one power doesn't "do it." Thunder strike differentiates between direct target and everything in AoE range. It does NOT differentiate between different ranges. It doesn't hit people two feet away harder than people six feet away.

Lightning Rod, however, does as far as I know. It has several aoe damage effects, each of which is set to a different radius. Well, either that or a different chance to proc. I'm not entirely sure.

Well, if it does, even Red Tomax doesn't show it. I'm not saying it doesn't. I'm just saying I've never been able to find conclusive evidence that it does.

Actually come to think of it they could make that this set's gimmick - the powers all have really long range, but fired at something further away than the normal range of standard blast sets, they do way less damage. Dunno if that's even possible though, so meh.
