I cannot agree with the mantra of 'poor doms' being expressed here although the only one I've played is my Ice/Ice (which may be the exception to the rule)
I've supplemented my single target holds by adding hold procs to all of my single target attacks allowing me to hold more often and occasionally bypass targets with high hold protection
I've chosen a Primary/Secondary with good soft controls
When my domination is up and going... bosses stay held, even some EBs don't get much freedom (but I do have to put them down b4 domination runs out)
My ranged damage isn't great so I utilize the melees.
Also using Pounding Slugfest and Devastation sets to boost overall damage along with Soul Drain.
Have plans for my Ice/Elec as well; similar soft controls plus a high damage secondary
Apparently, I play "City of Shakespeare"

Wha?
Perhaps you should read the dates on the majority of the posts in this thread...its a bit old and alot has changed since it was a current discussion.
Dominators don't need mitigation from their secondaries. Even if they did, there's ice (slows), psi (-recharge), and fire and elec (death).

Guess you can't please everyone. Some people want you to search for older posts as opposed to making a new one about the same thing, others don't want you to bring posts back from the dead. This comment is the reason why we have like 15 posts about fire/psy permadoms.

There is a bit of a difference between using a current post on the same topic you are interested in and bringing up something this old and commenting on the tone of the discussion.
Back when this was a more relevent post, Dominators where a bit different and this was a huge discovery. Hell, this was pre-IOs.

LOL
I didn't chastice anyone. You read that into what I said.
I was simply amazed that this thread was still around and that someone had found it.
I got a few post down this thread thinking "where the hell have these so-called dom experts been for the last two years?!" Then I realized the thread was 2 years old!

That said there's probably still time to submit your name for thread-necromancer of the year award.
that title would look cool in your sig...
The cake is a lie! The cake is a lie!
It's all new to me.
Besides, I thought they did periodic purges of old, non-stickied threads. Guess not.

Definitely the Inadvertant Father of Perma-Dominators. Not many of us left who have been slogging along with Doms consistently since the begining.

Shrike founded HTTT, the all-dom VG on Pinnacle.
Shrike was part of the first all-dom team on test that took down the Freedom Phalanx in the old LRSF.
Shrike discovered that domination was stackable.
Shrike is god.
ALL HAIL SHRIKE!
Please buff Ice Control.
Actually, yeah, I was here as you guys were whooping about holding the Kronos Titan.
Ha ha haaa!!!! I remember that,Talon!! Thank you for making me smile!!! 
ALL HAIL SHRIKE!!!!!!!!
Hmmmm, a leader who's experience with the AT is out of date and probably would be speechless if they ever tried the AT in comparison to other ATs as it is right now.
.... You know, I don't think you could do much worse for a leader. 
All Hail that dude then!
I don't know who Shrike is but I just high fived a CHEESEBURGER!

::nods::
I remember it all... As well as trying three different versions of my first Dom during Beta till I settled on Mind/Psi.
Then having the interminable fights with 515am, where he kept telling us all that all doms except Plant/ sucked on a team. He flat out ignored when I pointed out the glory that was PSW, but that was before /Psi was cool, back when you couldn't slot Drain Psyche for acc and everyone said /Psi was totally gimped .
Shrike... And Fishwork and Malrthad(sp?) and a few others I haven't seen in quite awhile. Fish was back a bit ago though I think.
OH SHI-
