Everyone got overhyped over Brimstone getting Electricity adv synergy over nothing! The pulling range of the adv is ankward compared to other AOE powers and limited to the power's original range, both for Tanks and DPS, and the requirement for the enemies being under Negative Ions for the pull effect to work makes it even worse
Several days of experimenting with Lighting Rod's pull proved it's inferior compared to every other pulling alternative, I'm all for more synergies but this is ankward, especially with HW not having other way to apply negative ions beyond Brimstone and still being a Clinging Flames focused!
You either use the other new adv of Brimstone to convert clinging flames into negative ions or Ball Lighting
This is not a suggestion for the vanilla Brimstone power to get increased range, only for Lighting Rod ADV to get increased pull range to 25ft for enemies effected by Negative Ions!
Brimstone 10 ft range - Lighting Rod 10 ft range
may as well just tap the power to knock down enemies since pulling enemies already in 10 ft makes no difference! It's counterproductive and kills the main utility of this adv
Now compared with literally everything else which has Pull into center utilities, which don't even require the enemies to be under any effect for the pull to work

also I suggest 25 ft instead of 20ft because of the Negative Ions gimmick! everything else doesnt have any secondary effect requirement to pull
