Earth/Rad would be my first pick.  Rad is a great set that can feel a bit unwieldy to play due to the anchor toggles.  Earth is a pure control set that has a great slow patch in Quicksand with layered control stuns, holds, and knockdown meaning anything less than an AV is going to stay exactly where you want them.  The messiness of /Rad solved!

Also as an Earth controller you won't be doing *any* damage so none of those "I just debuffed that group only to kill them, what a waste" working against yourself bad feels! Instead, you lock 'em down, you debuff, and everyone asks if they can up the diffculty because it's too easy.

 

Job well done, controller!

So after some juggling i have produced the following Dark/Cold/Ice build.

 

Hasten is perma, Benumb is 3.37 secs off being perma, and Heat Loss im not so sure as Mids isnt showing for me.

 

Capped S/L/Ranged Def.

 

There wont be any end issues with Heat Loss, but could really use Ageless for the extra Rech, but Clarion would probably be better suited.

 

Thought?

Alternatively i do have a variant that uses Stone Mastery, Def is all the same but i have slotted Force Feedback: +Rech into Fissure which knocks all the global rech issues out of the park.

 

I'm not sure overall which would Epic set would offer the more damage overall.
