I remeber seeing (this is quite a long time ago) someone saying that elec/ice was one the best archtypes you could have together on a blaster. I would like to know if it is really ?

There is no 'best' set on any archtype. Some are maybe easier or better to play (/regen of scrapper for example), but at the end it is stil the player who can make the toon work or not work.
I have a ice/nrg and a nrg/ice, although /ice has some few cool tricks, my playstyle makes the ice/nrg by far way stronger.

Elec/Ice is a very nice combo.
I have an nrg/nrg and sonic/elec both at 50, and my elec/ice is now 33 and i'm probably enjoying the elec/ice the most.
As has been said above, it does depends on ur playstyle.
There is no best, just how you use it.

It's great if you like not having much damage. I think you got confused and switched around the primary and secondary. Ice/Elec is a much stronger combo than Elec/Ice

Stronger in secondary 'damage' perhaps. But /ice has alot more control than /elec.
Elec gets a very nice snipe too and greater range.

With ice/elec its all about taking down the mobs asap. With elec/ice you can take ur time.

I run Ice/Elec, Kronosy has Elec/Ice. We are good at different things. As kronosy says, hes got some really nice control with ice patch and CE to certain extents. I just run in and blapp. I'd say my damage output is probably higher, but Kronosy has much greater survivability, in PvP and PvE.

I was that impressed with the way Kronosy played */Ice, i rolled a Sonic/Ice and im enjoying that quite abit. However, somewhat worried about late game damage capabilities.
