Is this not doable? If the Bioware Wizard Slayer could make his weapon of choice punch through mantle spells, that would be a fitting and more than sufficient upgrade for the kit.

The AMA is clearly overpowered in it's current form. I think it would be more reasonable in the form of a single target touch spell such as Energy Drain, usable once per day for every x levels (or maybe just plain once per day, with a special HLA, choosable multiple times, that adds one extra use), but I don't know if perhaps this would stray too far from how you had pictured the ability.

Anyway, I'm pulling out now. You've made it clear enough that the rebalanced Wizard Slayer is a new kit based on new ideas, so I can't argue against it in the context of existing ideas of what the Wizard Slayer should be like. As I've already said, I don't like the fact that the RebalWS has been so meticulously designed to be the perfect countermeasure to every difficulty that spellcasters generally pose, but since that's apparently the core idea of the kit, I have little else to say.
