So ... why isn't there an Energy Weapon powerset?

Assault Rifle just isn't the same!

...yes or no?

Because the devs haven't made one yet. However, with the upcoming customization in I19 where you'll be able to customize where various blasts come out of (eyes, hands, etc(, the next logical step might be to create alternative weapon based animations for the non-weapon blast sets.

If you could use Rad or Energy Blast with weapon based animations, you don't really need a distinct "energy weapon" set.

If I could graft the AR animations onto fire or energy blast, that would RULE.

Yep, being able to customise animations to turn Energy Blast or Rad Blast into a raygun set would be awesome. (And much better than a set with some different contrived ingame effects)

Especially if you can choose pistol or rifle animations.

I wouldn't say no to a concussive energy bow either (Energy Blast with bow animations), come to think of it
