Oh my not one reply in almost 16 hours. Not even one proud Ice/Storm controller out there that want to describe the unique advanteges and why everyone really should want to play one?
If that is the case, then they really should boost that combo.

Hehe, the thing is not everyone might enjoy the combo. Mine was lots of fun, but not easy to solo before the late 30s: very good control, but light on damage. Tons of fun combos like Ice Slick + Freezing Rain, Frostbite + Tornado + Lightning Storm, lots of stacking slows (=total lockdown), you can play both in melee (Arctic Air, Glacier, Hurricane) or at range (Shiver, Snow Storm), a pet which is OK although not the brightest (spams too many Ice Blots and not enough Ice Swords). So the synergy between the sets is very good, but it depends what you're looking for really 
Edit: and btw, you might have had more luck posting on the Controllers forum...

Probaly best to ask in the Controller section matey!
(Although I'm not that experienced with controllers, Ice/Storm looks like a fantastic PvE combo too me)
Ok, although not a Union player from the beginning i have a few that toddle about there. But as for Ice/Storm, I love the combo. Has been the best controller combo I've played so far.
Now the damage is light until alter on but as a team player I found that this controller had compelte lock down that I couldn't find in some other sets!
Ice slick at the level it's picked up is just great, coupled with low levels of snow storm you ahve your perfect control from that level onwards. It leaves the rest of the team the task of 'shooting fish in a barrel'. This alone tops alot for me but then you can chcuk freezing rain onto it and drop the mobs in record time.
Later on the toys of AoE holds, Thunder Clap jack, Lightning storm all add to the lock down with defensive measures of hurricane, steamy mist & Arctic air i think it's one of the most enjoyable sets to team with PvE.
Also having said that my troller frequents the PvP zones and doesn't doo too bad there. For me I think Ice/Storm is a great combo and worth trying
i have made many toons but my ice/storm is my fav.
allot of fun playing it and a great control btw
For what it's worth, I've been playing since the US release, and ice/storm is the only toon i've ever liked enough to get to 50. Don't know what that tells you, though.
now i have been aviding storm untillthe recent doule xp event , my mistke !!!
i rolled an illusion/storm and although it hs a few powers that dont meld 100 % it still rocks !! the slows, freezing rain every mob was enough to stopthe aggro so the team could wade in
One of my friends complain about the Ice/Storm Controller that the friend has. So I want someone to convince be and my friend that Ice/storm controllers are worthwhile. Please?
