I'm curious as to what the official rule on this is:

An elemental control can have all the powers in it active at once (5e p204). An attack power (with attack roll) takes a 1/2 phase action and can't have any action follow it (5e p 233-4). Does that mean that for an EC with two attack powers:

a) only one attack can be used in a phase (follows the action system), or

b) both attacks can be done, following the EC rules (or implied rules)

I'm referrring to regular attacks, not multiple power attacks, since they cannot be used within frameworks. I've been playing with version a and wad curious if I've been reading it differently then everybody else. Thanks.

(a) is correct. The EC rules never, ever say that two or more slots can be activated simultaneously. What they say is that multiple slots can be used at once.
