Is anything being done to help make these skills worth slotting?

    Nope.

    It's a shame that Solar Barrage is an alternative morph to Dark Flare, as they're both decent skills, but Dark Flare is just more useful. If Solar Barrage got the treatment that Elemental Ring got this coming patch, it might be more desirable as it would be nice to use that skill at range.

    As for explosive charge, it just seems like a silly skill. The only time I thought it could be useful was with the Tormentor set, thinking it'd be the only AoE taunt in the game, but it doesn't work that way.

    Is solar barrage a strong skill? From what I remember was that it was expensive and it neither didn't dealt enough damage or provided enough utility.

    That's my experience with it as well (but it's like years ago). Back then it was a poor copy of Impulse.

    I wish ZOS would make it a stamina morph, just because it seems more likely for a stamina build to be in the thick of enemies vs a magic build, granted Sweeps makes that argument somewhat moot for Templars but Stamplar needs more love.

    As for explosive charge, they just need to really make the knockdown part guaranteed for both charges with explosive being an AoE and toppling being changed to grant a buff/debuff to the enemy
