I was always of the opinion , that he should develop a non-offensive ability such as flight to balance out his powerful offensive abilities or increased physical ability even is not a progression in power.

While he has one of the most powerful weapons among the x-men his lack of defensive/mobility powers to increase survival at the very least boost his ability to absorb ambient energy.

Since his introduction, cyclops is the only mutant I can think of that hasn't undergone any significant growth of expansion in mutant ability or a lack of variance in what his powers can offer him, though with him finally gaining control of his mutant ability that may change.I have several theories on possible expansions in power if not versatility for him.

-he gains control of his apertures(his true power, to explore a possible connection he has to the universe he derives his energy blasts from)

-explore how his body metabolizes energy

-shift the point of manifestation of the blasts to his hands or other parts of his body.

These are just suggestions, what do you think?

Potentially of the all, cyclops is probably the most powerful, his primary power is interdimensional aperture generation, the byproduct of which is energy generation and project ( like a portal opening up at the sun, which releases raw plasma without end) , if cyclops were ever to gain control of the size of the apertures generated and where they manifest from you are looking at blackbolt 2.0 , but that is some ways to go, but now that emma has given him the drive to master his abilities rather than make do with their default setting.I expect to see a lot from him.
