"You have this powerful attack, but you have to drop your shields to use it" or "really powerful attack but drains your energy" is a pretty common way of fixing a balancing issue of a powerful attack. So if you have a semblance like Adam's that's powerful but drains your aura when used... I guess that works.

But if your idea is that the semblance's primary ability is to make the user weaker then... I don't think people would like that.
