I've been hearing this more and more. Yes, Ice tanks are tough to bring down, but they get downright creamed when facing smart opposition.
What exactly is it that makes Ice "broken?" I have my own theories on why some feel this way, but most of those always seem to use the "Energy Melee" factor, which, last time I checked, is not part of the Ice Primary.
So, is "Ice" broken or is EM broken? Is it the combo? What exactly is it it about the combo that makes it broken?
Would nerfing one set or the other be fair to those that don't have both?
I'm not being clueless here. I have my opinions on the subject. Just trying to figure out why others feel that way.
For the record, no I don't feel it's broken and yes, I do have one.

If you don't utterly cream the opposition with your ice/em then you don't know how to use it right. The combination is too severe. You can barely slow Ice armor and debuffs mean very little to it. So, Kinetic and Radiation controllers, and their defender brotherin, mean very little to this build. What doesn't the combo do? It stuns, it hurts, it slows, it has a 'oh crap I need to make myself invincible to recover health' mode. It drops toggles... etc etc etc.
We aren't talking Stone/SS synergy. Nor are we talking invuln/Fire synergy... we are talking ICE/EM one of the most deadly combos in the arena. The only true place to get rung PVP.
Zone PvP who cares what anyone has... You are bound to face either min/maxers with FotM gank builds or nublets.
