haha, I love this line "The few times when I did get caught in an electro storm, I'd laugh at myself for such a pathetic death." 
Ok, well I'm sure we will not make it too weak thats for sure, it's just that the primary with a steady aim can be very strong, but you need a really really steady aim and with all the strafing on the ground side to side is hard to do, I will have a look tonight with frutiex and others and we will see how well the combo does at the moment, obviously we can't allow it to spam too many balls at one time, maybe an idea we could also try would be to make secondary fire 3 balls at a time like the old electro, and then you can detonate them with primary may work and not be too spammy.
As for your nex/sniper I fully get you now..I also had the eraser style in mind exactly!!
Will work on these and once updated you can try it out, as for the eraser style..that would need to be worked on, but the actual ROF, dmg and ammo etc we can actually work on a balance
@plasmasheep, speak to frutiex about the mortar..I'd prefer electro secondary not be sticky balls, i'd rather have the mortar do that, primary or secondary..I guess the reasoning of having sticky primary is because the RL is fast, that if the mortar primary becomes back to how it was, then we will have essentially two nearly equal weapons doing the same thing, which is what frutiex mentioned before.
