A skill that does more damage than both Slashes

It doesn't. See above. 550 base damage for both.

Just what we need, more classes to sit in corners haphazardly mashing a single button to glide their way through an extraction.

No.

The way it is now at least they have to get close and put themselves in danger's way to get the big damage payoff and BE prime. Remove that and BW might as well just put in the patch notes: "Instead of FBW/G/P, players must now play FBG/U/P cause it's a massive ton easier to not even have to see the enemies and wipe the floor with them as long as you take a Defector and a Slayer"

Not at all, when you consider that you can actually aim Smash up or down as needed....

Looking at the numbers, I'll probably want to test it out myself. But even with both doing the same damage, my other points still stands:

1. Smash ignores elevation, allowing you to hit enemies above or below while Slash requires them to be around your vertical level.
2. Smash has rank 6 evolution that gives it 75% extra damage to barrier and armor, making it much better against Reapers.
3. Smash can set up either BE or TB, allowing the Phoenix to self detonate, especially on the Vanguard.

If the enemy is too far away use Lash --> Smash. If you can't Lash it, position yourself behind a wall and keep Smashing it.

I don't know where you're coming from with this "my PA is a bit useless".

Try this build:

He's one of my favorite classes and I say no. Its animation speed and armor damage cause it to far outclass Biotic Slash in short-range.

I don't think a range all the way out to 20m would be appropriate. But a small increase, maybe 2 more meters would be nice. Even out the power creep in the Earth DLC

Sets up biotic explosions and possibly tech, also it can do more damage to armor/barrier.

Those are its advantages, if it had range as well it'd blow everything else out of the water.

The range could be mututally exclusive with damage.

i would like to see smash get buffed. then everyone can complain he's overpowered and they can cut his legs off or something. then he'll be too nerfed, so he can get one of his arms replaced with a chainsaw.
