Is it just me or is Elemental Strike MASSIVELY over-powered?

You have to have Killing Hands to pick it up, but activating it is a Simple Action that lasts for (Magic) turns.

But some of the effects are...insane.

Blast- Virtually guarantees a knockdown
Light- Halves the Impact armor of the target and inflicts a Glare modifier for one turn after the strike, can also ignite flammable materials.
Sand- Halves Impact armor and can jam weapons.
Smoke- Attack damage is Stun resisted as an inhalation vector toxin attack, no armor is used. Also gives Heavy Smoke vision penalty
Sound- Attack is treated as Stun damage but NO ARMOR defends against it except Silence/Hush spells. Also can (read: will) Nauseate and deafen an opponent.
Water- Impact armor is halved and the target is knocked down, unprotected electronics may short out.

Good gods, where is the drawback in this?
