Charge weapon, even without pre-charging will be still very potent, no worries. The weapons themselves even without charges aren't much weaker than its counterparts.

But this allows people to prepare for it in battle, instead of being cheap shot right off the bat.

And I do not know if not consuming on Evade/Glance/Deflect is a bug or not...I Do kinda remember giving Moxie a Sniper build like that like 4 years ago, and I think it behaved the same there, but I wouldn't trust my old memory on something that long ago. Either way, it is pretty unfair to get infinite tries to land your big shot, with no drawback.
