Icecx

If you want to have the best experience as far as real control, I suggest either Mind or Plant. Both are very much about controlling as well as having viable damage capabilities. I'd also recommend trying Earth or Ice if you want to lean more toward mostly controlling. If you want damage go with Fire or Illusion. Gravity is the mixed bag.

Hmm, I'm considering Ice/Therm and Ice/Rad after reading your descriptions. I don't want a pure team buffer, and would like something with a mix of control (or buffing) and Debuffing. Both seem to offer just that after looking at the abilities. TA is also in the running.

I'm working on a new Ice/ toon and don't know what to use as his secondary. I'm stuck between FF, CD, Thermal, Rad, and TA. All of them seem like they would work well, but I need some opinions from the community. I plan on mostly teaming, and normally I rarely solo anything. Any advice on which to take for a mostly teaming build, but also comes helpful control and debuff options would really help.

You don't need AA and Shiver.

I'm not using crossover or anything, it's the mac client.

This started occurring since I got a new copy of City of Heroes, and since patch 3.3.5 in WoW. I'm not sure which caused it, but there is definitely a noticeable increase in lag now.

Edit: I got the new copy of CoH on Monday the 21st, and patch 3.3.5 came out on the 22nd. Games never lagged like this before.

I just reinstalled the game on this computer, and I also have WoW installed. However, ever since I did so, I have noticed incredibly reduced performance in both games. I am getting short, choppy bits of lag every few feet in both games, and some of the time my abilities either fail to go off or are delayed. Is there a way to fix this?

Also, since my graphics card is integrated, i can't take it out. Is there a way to improve the computer's performance if I already have 4 GB of RAM?

Probably somewhat surprisingly, Ice Control is my favorite control set. I love Arctic Air and Ice Slick together, and with Glacier, Frostbite, and Jack Frost thrown into the mix to control during Ice Slick's downtime, I find it very very fun and chaotic. However, I'm having trouble deciding which set to use as my secondary. I was considering Ice/Rad due to the holy trinity powers helping with Ice's lack of initial aggro control, but any of the other powersets I don't know a whole lot about, especially in their synergy with Ice. So, I guess I'm asking how the other secondary sets line up with Ice Control and how they work together with it.
