I play a Fire Controller in CoH, so I know a fair bit about your primary.
- Char is an excellent hold both for damage and duration.
- Fire Cages+Flashfire combo gives you effectively a 2nd AoE Hold.
- Bonfire can be good when used to protect a particular area, the knockback is pretty high.
- Smoke is debateable and I had it for a while, helps if you wanna slip unnoticed but the Accuracy debuff is pretty minimal.
- Fire Imps are great, you'll need to learn to control them and get them to attack the same target but they have great damage when focusing on one enemy.
- Cinder is just a standard AoE Hold, recharge is pretty slow unless you have Hasten (I have Accelerate Metabolism too).
Can't really give you much advice on the fire assault set as I've never really played a fire blaster or fire tank.
Have to admit that the guy above is correct on the powers for Fire control. I have found that its better to get up high enough and work your way through then repesc out the ones taht you dont want, as you will end up taking a power that you notmally wouldnt take. IE i have had to take hot feet as i didnt want either that or smoke (my main fire controller on Union has neither of these powers anymore). If you can get it sorted though, cinders and hotfeet is a nice point blank damage zone, thuogh can be a bit end heavy sometimes.

A Dominator is more closely related to a Controller; it's Corrupters that are the Blaster types.
Im using a Fire/Fire and am really enjoying it
Fire assault is very good so far

I dunno, I don't like to draw too many comparisons between CoH and CoV Archetypes. Personally I would say that Dominators are more of a cross between a Controller and a Blapper. They can do some awesome damage as well as controlling the field. They really don't quite match up to any one AT in CoH.
Very true, they fit in nicely between blasters and controllers
I'd actually class them more as Blapper-Controller hybrid, but maybe that's just me
Oh, and yes, comparing the AT's is pretty pointless as most don't have equivalent on the other side.
Very true, all i know is that they are pretty cool, they do get overshadowed by Masterminds at the mo, but that will change im sure

I'm playing a Fire / Thorns.
Does Hotfeet suck as much as it seems to? I took it and really wish I hadn't. I'm also toying with the idea of not getting stamina for the moment but I'd like to know other peoples views. I do find myself running out of stamina but generally only in Panic situations.
And does Flashfire have a base -accuracy to it?
Hi english community, i'm french and i'm looking the subjects to be good in english 
!
I play a Fire/Fire Dominator and i'm level 30.
At the moment, I think that the dominator (fire/fire particulary) is very fun to play and it's very easy to play alone in hard difficult.
He has very good immo, damages as a corrupters with so and pets at the level 32 !
In pvp, i think that the dominator fire/fire is very very dangerous with a good immo, good damages and the power of domination and add to this the power of haste (auxiliary power speed) and power of regen endu !
I hope i have help people who whants to play dominator !
and sorry for the errors in my english ^^
Good Game
I have fire assualt which im really enjoying at the minute. The only power i dont find useful is Incinerate, mainly because it isnt a ranged attack.
Fire/Fire will be my second dominator, for the mellee skills. More damage output than ice, but possibly more risk (cause of no Chilling Embrace or Arctic Air) Incinerate is fantastic!

Hot feet is amazing on controllers due to containment, on dominators, i think it'll be quite effective (dominators have greated damage output) also the AoE powers will work nicely with your Blap powers, so with hot feet you can pretty much don't have to worry about minions to much, its also autohit so no accuracy needed, I'd definately pick it up as a PvE power, as it'll aid you in taking mobs down. But if your kgoing into PvP respect it out for a more useful tool in PvP.
Hot feet is in my plans as I plan to blaproll

You think that now, Wait till you get the imps. You will kill everything far faster than with a MM.
Dont have to wait 20 minutes to buff all the pets too.
Already found out that when you enter a mission and the brown stuff is flying at the aircooling system because of mobs being close to the door Jack Frost is better than any of the MM pets because he's instantly ready on full power, 3 imps would definitely be a bonus in those situations

Just started a fire/fire dominator and I'm loving her to bits. Decided that I only take char, fire cages, flashfire, cinders and fire imps form her primary so that leaves me with plenty of room to experiment with the fire secondary.
So far I really like incinerate, you can forget about a thug you hitted with it because you know it will die/arrest/whatever eventually
Yeah i got a fire/fire dom, they play a lot like a blaster
On stamina:
Take this with a grain of salt. I'm not fire/fire, I'm grav/energy. Anyway. I do have stamina 3 slotted, with ED and not having to dump 6 in it it's too good not to take. You could probably get away with skipping stamina but it might require you to get more end redux in powers, reducing their effectivity because you skipped one power and two added slots.
That's IMHO. I could live without stamina as a grav/enr, I just wouldn't want to. Having said that: you probably dont need to be in any particular rush to get stamina over important damage or control powers unless fire/fire is way end heavier than grav/enr. I only got stamina at 28 in lieu of more control powers and such.
just started what i intend to be my main 4 c o v.
as i've been used to playing tankers and scrappers on coh , ne usefull tips greatly appreciated with the slotting
