Just hit 50 and looking for help with first controller build. Earth/Cold.

[blaythesteuer]

Hey guys. Been loving playing the game again. I never played a controller as a youngin back on live so I would love some help with making him great. My power sets are Earth Control and Cold Domination. My main strategy is earthquake + quicksand + sleet + ice storm from the cold mastery epic pool. From there I go stalagmites and ST hold as needed. I like the big area denial and debuff side of control. I can't really do a lot of damage as it stands. I leveled with arcane bolt but it really seems to have a long activation time. My single target debuff game with infrigidate and benumb crushes. I would also like to give my allies pretty good ice shields too and I dont really know where to start with that, much less picking the best control enhancement sets for these goals. 

 

I skipped the single target immob, salt crystals (PBAoE sleep, not trying to be that close), Hoarfrost, and Snow Storm. I wanted to get super speed, hasten, recall friend (to stealth missions with arctic frost + super speed), and maneuvers (LotG mule). I got tough and weave but right now I can't sustain the endurance cost. If I you guys don't think I will need them I can be convinced to drop them for sure. 

 

 

Thanks so much for the help!! Can't wait to build him out.
