I think Excalibur and Volt are both pretty well rounded when it comes to melee gameplay (Excalibur more so due to his awesome sword o' light ability). I also think Volt gets kinda of a bad rep. for being underpowered. Not enough people realized that he is meant to be played as a "potent alternative to gun-play" and find his abilities to be a bit on the weaker side because of it, not realizing the potential of his massive energy pool. But one thing I would like to see is a rework of his third ability. If compared to Frost's "snowglobe" Volt's Energy Shield is extremely lacking. It only lasts a good 25 sec, a bit longer with a Primed Continuity I guess, and is about a fith of a circle, not to mention it being stationary. It would be nice if the duration was set on the same system as Frost's or even was reworked to encompass the player entirely like a dome or force field. If not either one of those two at least make it mobile like Odonata's shield ability.
