Of course, it'd be rather difficult to justify KILLING the target with just Incite Emotion, whereas this power does so explicitly

Well, he can't make maneouvres with it, and it costs an extra point of refresh. I don't think the actual effect of 'taken out' matters that much. Someone who incited 'despair' as a +2 weapon could certainly drive someone to suicide.
The limitations and the cost balance it with the rest of the system, as far as I can tell.
Sanctaphrax:
Immaterial Edge looks good, Manifested Item looks weird but generally harmless.
Spiritual Weapon makes me nervous. The scythe in question here is probably weapon 5, which makes it downright lethal. But I don't feel confident calling it overpowered.
My advice is to playtest the heck out of this.
PS: Am I to assume that the powers I posted are reasonable?

Holy Weapon looks fine
the special version of Channeling is...well, it's probably not worth an extra -1, but it IS distinctly more powerful than the normal version, as foci can be taken away, but specializations cannot
Sanctaphrax:
Well, you don't actually get free specializations with Elemental Command. So without Refinement, it's worse than Channeling in every way.
I'm mostly worried about people taking Elemental Command and the max number of Refinements. Is it more broken than someone doing the same with Channeling or Evocation? I'm not sure.
