Was mulling over a new toon and noticed that some Blaster Secondaries are just a Melee Attack with secondary effects.
So why not just proliferate the Brute/Stalker/Scrapper/Tank attacks to a Blaster Secondary, you can add a secondary effect and tweak the damage but it would fit with established Blaster Secondaries. Besides with DP we really need the option to mix Broadsword :P
But on the same vein give the Melees Blaster attacks as a Primary, you can cut the range like 10-12 feet (as I recall the new default range for melee is 7 now right?) and lower the damage to say 80% scrapper norm and they would make a good alternative for Scrappers. Get some range give up some damage seems a good balance.

They would need some tweaks of course (A blaster with parry would be lawlzly), but otherwise I've liked this idea for awhile. I'd very much like to make a Dual Pistols/Katana Blaster.
I don't know about the scrapper-blaster part, though.
