Welcome back!
Never go wrong with Storm, but I do also recommend Dark if you haven't already played it with a pet set. Even with the improved damage to Necromancy, they are still very good at control and I like to lean into that with the set and dark miasma offers lots of extra control and thematic. I also added Diamagnetic for extra debuffs, it's a beast. Time is also excellent.
Throwing in my vote for Ice/Ice/Cold Blaster. Nasty damage, lots of control, safe as houses to play.
Also DP/Martial/Mace Blaster. Be the heroic bloodshed Gun Fu badass you always knew you were. Feels epic, also very tough.
I'd prefer Dark Blast for the heal and Acc debuffs, but would not bother slotting to improve the -Acc. Instead 4-slot Thunderstruck (or other set) each attack and then 2 damage procs each, for example.
Removing player agency for the sake of not clicking a mouse is not a buff or QoL. No one is asking for this. There are other low hanging fruit if we're looking for QoL.
