    I think everyone is so focused on losing Storms Path that they aren't seeing Overpower's potential.

    Overpower only has potential if you're tanking (can only be used following a Parry), which won't always be the case as MRD can comparably be a DD or Tank. In order to use your true AoE (Whirlwind, as Overpower is a conal attack) you have to either nix the combo and bomb 3k TP or Path of the Storm from behind the target to get your combo out, which kinda negates the whole AoE Melee thing they originally had since now we're often forced to single-target attack. I still think they should have left Path of the Storm as an AoE ability, but even with the lack-of I've found MRD to still be a very fun class to play.

    Edit: I can see how they may be able to be combined if you've yet to generate threat, walk in, Path of the Storm > Whirlwind, get hate, Foresight + Overpower, but that's a little much for everyday situations, exping, spiritbonding, what-have-you.
