I Have a Problem

I just can't seem to play anything other than the Ice primary. Whenever I go to make a controller, none of the other primaries are interesting and/or appealing to my mind's eye. Animations play a big factor, but it's also that Ice is "my element." Fire is the opposite of Ice and I hate most fire characters (except /Thermal), Earth obstructs my view and slows my graphics card, Gravity is too situational (though it is the closest thing to being a fun set I can find besides Ice), Mind is ok, but not really fun to me in any way, Illusion I hate because of all the pets it relies on, and Plant I hate because of it's ugly animations. I apply the same ideas to the secondaries, only wanting to play Thermal, Rad, or TA at any given time. Sometimes I get the urge to play Kin, but I just can never get into it. Is there something wrong with me or does anyone else feel the same way? Should I just be less picky and suck it up? Help please and thank you.

Oh, and if Trollers had an Elec primary and secondary, I would play both in a heartbeat.

Everyone has different preferences. Play what you like. And if you like Ice Control and Electricity, have you considered making an Ice / Electric dominator?


I team with the Repeat Offenders.

Or an Ice/Elec blaster, or an Elec/Ice blaster, or an Ice/Ice blaster. There's lots of control there.

I would roll a Ice/Elec Dom, but the two powers I like most in the Elec sets (Ball Lightning and Static Discharge) are not in the Dom secondary.

I guess I'll just have to wait until Cold or some sort of Electricity secondary are ported to trollers. From now until then, I guess I'll just play WoW :/

The /Ice and Ice/ sets both lack the powers of a controller that I love: Ice Slick (ice patch doesnt count), AA, and Glacier. Not to mention Frostbite. Yeah, that's why I put a :/ at the end of the LoL statement. It's just that bad...

eh... I kind of have the same problem

Earth - not enough damage, ugly animations
Mind - No pet
Ice - I've never liked ice until I rolled an ice/thermal, doesnt have enough damage
Illusion - recharges take FOREVER, not a whole lot of control

Gravity, Fire, Plant and most recently Ice are the main primaries I can play...

Trick Arrow- I dont really like the idea of shooting an infinite amount of arrows at my enemy
Force Field - boring, but I tolerate it
Empathy - would prefer to focus on controls instead of healing
Sonic - seems to be solely a team based secondary, I would prefer a set that affected myself more-so than my teammates


Kinetics, Radiation, Storm and Thermal are my top choices.


Everyone has their own personal tastes
