A fellow player from our all-controller SG summarised the choices for Epics on our thread. It really depends what you think you are missing at the moment (attacks? status protection? better holds?). Hope this helps

Primal is awesome for /rad because you can powerboost the effects of all your buffs/debuffs. Powerboosted AM is awesome, and powerboosted LR is even more crippling to the enemy.

Are you sure about the debuffs? Here is a quote from Foxmaiden's great Fire control guide (bolds are mine): [http://foxmaiden.kitsunetsuki.com/pages/14/index.htm]
"Power Boost doubles the duration of your holds and other controls, and increases the "secondary effects" of your powers. In addition to all types of mez effects, [s]econdary effects include things like healing or regeneration, knockback, defense buffs, and flight or run speed, even when those effects are in fact the main purpose of the power. They do not, however, include damage buffs, resistance buffs, or most debuffs. Depending on your sets, it can be like being a small god for the duration of the Power Boost. Possibly the best reason to choose this epic pool."

Powerboost definitely boosts the -spd part of LR, at least. It also boosts all of the components of AM, as well as doubling the power of your heal.
On the elemental trollers I would recommend the fire epic, but grav doesnt have enough options for getting containment. I would prolly take Ice epic on a grav/rad.
Ice blast, great single target damage. Rocks with containment. Hold - ice blast - propel. Minion gone.
Hibernate, Great rest/phase power. Im not sure about this one. They changed hibernate at some point so your toggles stays up (ice tanks), it might be the same with trollers. Rad debuffs from a safe location... Thats gotta be good.
Frozen Armour, great with rads tohit debuffs.
Ice storm, good damage if mobs are held. The slow might be good if you stack it with lingering.

What do you mean by this? Like most sets, Gravity has an immobilise, hold, AoE immobilise, AoE hold and AoE disorient...

Yes, because it is.

You only really have the AoE hold to use with fireball. AoE immobs and foes who arent held is not a good combination.
The only reason to choose the fire epic (outside concept) is as you prolly could guess; fireball.

Wormhole does knockback/down and actually groups the mobs together more than they were originally. As it takes time for them to get back up, it's easy to use Fireball on them.
Personally I second what Xanthus said, with Primal Forces Epic I can activate Conserve Power then EM Pulse without worrying about the loss of end recovery, and Power Boost on any Controller, especially a /Rad Controller is simply amazing. The recharge/end recovery on a Power Boosted AM seems to be around Speed Boost levels in my experience.
i have a grav/rad troller and he is nearly lvl 41 but i still dno wat powerpool to get. i am thinking either stone,ice or psi? plz some1 help me
