Ok so after playing three characters to 50 and several others to the 30-40 range I'm finally going to focus on getting one IOed out. Originally I had intended to do it on my first 50 (a ElecM/Invul Brute), but after getting this controller to 50, I'm finding he is much more fun to play and I think he ought to be my first really tricked out guy. Now, since I've only been playing for a little over a year, I don't have a whole lot of money on my account (maybe 250million account wide), so my budget isn't as huge as it probably should be. But let's presume for a minute that I focus a little (yeah, right) and really work on getting this guy to where he ought to be.
I started with this build, which is pretty close to where I think I need to go. I'm open to suggestions. I played with the psychic epic pool for a bit, but after reading a bit (thanks Local Man), I switched to Fire and I am MUCH happier. I'd kind of like to keep fire since OMFG does Superior Invis love my blue bar like a dirty, dirty...well, you get the idea, and Consume helps with that. I like the decent Resists I have. I took SS pretty much to get Burnout as I have pretty much no need for a travel power and I took Burnout to stack Flash and/or Liquefy, though I tend to just ignore using Flash and start spamming my single target chain or Judgement/Fireball spam after I throw out my PA and ST (when I remember the Demon Elephant is up). So I'm looking for tweaks and am open to different power choices or slotting (I still got a couple respecs to burn on him and I haven't even run the trials).
Thanks in advance.

Or even some AOE. Not all builds have a lot of AOE. I am playing a SR/MA tanker at the moment, just 1 PBAOE in the whole thing prior to epic. And it's not a particularly good one either (T8 too, so you don't get it for a long time). The point of a tanker is Agro control. PBAOE are beautiful for generating agro.
