Everything about this ability is fail.

Full damage only works once a game, limited by tileset. It's practicy is redundanct, Volt has better skills to damage and cause proc on mobs. Scales pretty bad with power atributes.

There's more to explain how much it sucks. But above all, the worse thing is that it goes against Volt's builds, which focus on duration and efficiency. Works so badly that most of the time, this skill will be reduced to a tiny fraction of how weak it already is, because power range will be reduced bellow average for any relyable Volt build...

For that same reason no tweak can be good enough, because it would still need range and strength. Volt totally needs an entirely different skill that doesn't do precisely what overload does.

Best case scenario, you can still rely on a power strength build for Speed, and maybe Shock trooper. But then again, you need to sacrifice range for that, hence, overload with a lot of damage, would still be useless. Also, it's not a serious build, just a way to speedrun low to mid level missions.
