[QUOTE="Squire James, post: 4677541, member: 548"] I've not found it too big a deal in play. Paragon Paths often have powerful encounter abilities, and this is certainly no exception, but this power is limited in several ways: 1. Against a creature that is not undead or a demon, it is just damage. Not bad damage, and excellent area, but not really a lot of damage. 2. You still have to hit. Unlike daily powers, a Solar Wrath that misses is just a little Solar Breeze that does nothing. These two factors pull the power down from "broken" to "a strong choice" in a typical campaign. On the other hand, if the whole campaign is centered on the Demon Prince of Undead, this power is indeed a bit "broken". I've run encounters where a Radiant Servant of Pelor was able to stun the entire group of monsters for 2 rounds with a well-timed Solar Wrath and Radiance of Pelor. Nevertheless, there were other encounters with undead present that still almost wiped him out (sorry, that Blade Spider's not undead, and the Drow Arachnomancer Vampire isn't getting within 8 squares of you).
