In general, I slot AA for end redux first, confuse second. It's a massive end pig, so I try to get at least 2 SOs worth of end redux in there asap - more if possible. After that, I tried to jam in a bit of confuse enhancement, and I ended up getting a bit of slow and recharge from some slow set IOs, too. IMO, it's a power you're probably going to 5 or 6 slot. The confuse is worth slotting, mostly because, if you want them to actually waste their shots on each other while they're so recharge debuffed, you're going to need longer than the base confuse. Also, a bit of slow can occasionally be useful to keep higher con enemies at the speed floor, and possibly also some recharge as it takes a bit to come back, and you'll probably find yourself turning it on and off frequently to save end (not to mention getting it dropped due to mez) For generics, I'd go 2 end, 3 confuse, or 3 end, 2 confuse, or 3 end, 3 confuse, or 2 end, 3 confuse, and a recharge, or 2 end, 2 confuse, a slow, and a recharge, or whatever. 2 end and 2 confuse at least are probably a must, though.
My ice/ice has shiver, but honestly I rarely use it in PvE. I mostly picked it up way back when for the occasional times I messed around in PvP, when slows were still useful there and dual builds didn't exist. It comes in handy occasionally, mostly when you've got a target or group that you *really* want to slow, but don't want to jump in the middle of with AA on. If you have spare slots it could be a worthwhile pick.
As for the extra power changes, /ice didn't get any IMO because it didn't need any. /energy and /psi were long overdue for tweaks, and /fire really broke with their new emphasis on harder-hitting attacks with its first two blasts. /ice didn't stick out, and so IMO it didn't get changed, aside from catching the PBAoE range extension/rebalancing that all the sets got

This is what it means to be a tank!
Frankenslot is what you want for this one. 3end/conf and 3 procs (2 confuse proc, 1 slow proc or fear proc) then it does as much damage as hotfeet.

Yes slotting the procs work. My Ice/Ice has his AA with 2-3 procs and it's funny as heck. Not sure how effective it is, but it entertains me.

I like the Persuasive Confusion set in Arctic Air 
contagious confusion is awesome but I may consider procs with the new changes.
Sorry, just read the part about not referring to sets, lol. Nvm

How does one slot Arctic Air? I see 3 end cost, but is the confuse worth it? Should I grab Shiver? Why is ice/ice only getting a single nerf in Issue 15 outside of the standard base buffs every dom is getting? Is it really that good?
When slotting, please only discuss it as plain IOs or SOs so I can see where it is going a bit better - sets come way later for me.
I got to level 12 with a new one and just looking for direction. My highest dom is a 46 plant/thorn and the highest I ever got a controller was in the mid 30s. I have had a hard time getting into control sets but I am no noob to the game. As an example, I am able to take advantage of the 60 month vet badge and grabbed super jump at level 10 without opening the leaping pool.
