The most unusual thing in my build seems to be the lack of Fire Cages. I have loathed AoE immobs for some time, although in the case of contained Hot Feet I have a much higher tolerance for it. Of course, I always seem to team with those Fire controllers who run Hot Feet, use Fire Cages, and then stay at range anyway. I did want to take Fire Cages, but since I rarely have anything escape my Hot Feet anyway, I do not see the point.
Choking Cloud is often referred to as skippable, I am not sure why I need to hold enemies that are either stunned or debuffed so much they rarely hit. THe imps also help keep some aggro off me (although not a lot). I like Choking Cloud, though, and I am glad to see some recommend it, so I will defintely keep it in mind as a possible addition if I do have troubles.
I like to get information from people, even if they have playstyles that diverge from my own. I can parse the differences in playstyle pretty well normally.

I could see skipping CC if you didn't have anything to pair it with, like Hotfeet or Artic Air. You have to go where Squishies fear to tread to get the most of CC, so it works best to have something to back it up.
The Chance to Hold proc in Cages hits A LOT. Way more than advertised, it seems, and if you pair that with CC (and yet another Chance to Hold proc) you can lock down damn near everything before you even have to thing about using Cinders (and its +Chance to hold proc)- mua ha ha!

The Devastation: Chance to Hold procs are great for my Fire/Fire blaster, who can use help in the mitigation area. My Fire/Rad controller doesn't seem to need more control, even when faced with adds and rooms of doom. I will indeed keep both those powers in mind if that changes and am very glad to hear people feel they work well as it helps influence my future decisions.

Flashfire and Cinders have a fairly long recharge time -- one shot, and that's all you have for a while. Hot Feet is Slow/Damage/Afraid, but that alone doesn't stop them from shooting at you. Hot Feet takes a while for it to chip away at the health of foes, and it often takes longer than the duration of Flashfire or Cinders. Sure, the Imps can work on three foes at a time, but they do have a tendency to run off. Choking Cloud gives you a toggle hold that has a good chance to hold the foes long enough to be killed off by Hot Feet. Plus, it sets up Containment and stacks with Char, letting you take out Bosses in one shot most of the time. (Take a look at my Ill/Rad guide. I discussed the mechanics of the power there. Although I do not recommend it for an Ill/Rad for the reasons I state there, I love Choking Cloud on my Fire/Rad.)
Standard Strategy: From Range, I Flashfire + Fire Cages. The I run in with Hot Feet and Choking Cloud running. Hot Feet chips away at their health, and after a few seconds, Choking Cloud begins to show that it has a hold on most of the foes in range. As I stand there and let the two toggles do their thing, I look for anything moving and hit it with Char. It there is a Boss, I might hit him with Char first, then EF to chip away at his damage faster. Within a short time, the group is all dead, and I didn't have to work very hard . . . not nearly as clicky as a Fire/Kin.
If another group shows up and starts shooting at me (with Flashfire recharging), then I can hit them with Fire Cages and Radiation Infection, so they miss most of the time.
On teams, it is even easier. Let the tank run in to get the aggro -- I can save Flashfire or wait for the group to gather more tightly. Flashfire + Fire Cages or run in next to the tank and Cinders, or just Fire Cages to keep them all in the area (in case one was missed -- that way he'll have to stay around for CC+HF and have a chance to get hit by CC's hold). Stand there, char any straglers or anyone moving. The tank can then move on to the next group, knowing that I can finish up this one just by standing here.
It is even better with two or more Fire/Rads with the HF+CC combo. Everything in range is held very quickly, even bosses. All we have to do is run around, imps trailing behind, and everything dies. (It's like Amdro and Fire Ants . . . ) You ain't seen nothin' until you have seen a full team of Fire/Rads run though a mission/TF in record time. Just stay together, walk up to a group -- they all die -- walk up to the next group -- It's too easy.

I understand the stacking on a boss, but as I stated originally, I normally only run on small teams, so my boss fights are few, and then Char is plenty. I have run on big teams: with a tanker, I have no need of CC; the few big teams I have been on without a good alpha eater/aggro tanker, I think I could have made good use of CC. I am concerned once I turn my difficulty up, but I was thinking of only making the enemies spawn as if I was 6 players, which still keeps the boss count low. I was thinking about going +2, which would spawn +3s as well, and that might make the duration of Flashfire shorter than comfortable.
If I were to drop CC in, I know it needs slotting. I would drop Tough (and then Weave), which I have found to be very helpful at mitigating those surprise adds and the damage of those first few seconds before I have the lockdown/debuff applied, but CC does appeal to me as well. How would I slot CC, and is CC still useful vs. +2s and +3s?

I haven't really played my Fire/Rad since I-16 hit, so I can't suggest how to set the settings. My Fire/Rad is just about my favorite character for the Statesman's TF, with its large numbers of foes, lots of add-ins, and with a good team, lots of fast moving action. I can't wait for FF to recharge for each spawn (unless we have a Kin speed boosting me, and even then not always). Because of the mechanics of CC, it doesn't always hold all foes in range, but the combination of HF+CC is great because those not held are slowed and "afraid" -- trying to run out of the area. Fire Cages holds them in the area, but stops the "afraid" mechanism so that they can take a shot or two at me before CC hits and holds them.
Quote:
| I use RI that way as well, but I have found it works fine without Cages, and it is often convenient to allow the enemies to move anyway so they collapse into a tighter spawn for easier removal. |
I have to admit that I like having my AoE Immobilize and use it a lot in the right situations -- but I don't agree with the majority of Fire/Kins who seem to spam it constantly in all situations. AoE Immob needs to be combined with something else -- a stun, a ToHit Debuff, someone else drawing the aggro or even cover. But when used right, it is very effective control. I discuss some of my strategy in my Earth/Rad guide, but Fire Cages is a bit different because I'm always considering the effect of Containment boosting the damage from Hot Feet.Quote:

This is the biggest time where I wish I had Cages, so I could get contained HF while saving Flashfire for an emergency. Fortunately, RI has been strong enough for me in most emergency situations. |

I have never teamed with another Rad anything, much less another Fire/Rad, so I would not often (or ever) get to benefit from stacking CC. My Rad/Ice defender, OTOH, is made to team with other Rad/Ice defenders, and the stacking leadership and AM make any control unneeded, while multiple ~damage capped Frost Breaths eliminate spawns in seconds. |
My Ill/Rad guide discusses the slotting for Choking Cloud. You want to cap the Hold duration, and get as much EndRdx as you can. It doesn't take accuracy, but you can sneak it in as part of a Hold set. However, My Fire/Rad has enough global Accuracy that I don't worry about it. I have the Lockdown Chance for +2 Mag in it, which I love. Due to the mechanics of CC, it really makes a difference.

Possibly. I have been content on Unyielding up to this point, but the new settings give me options I never had before. I doubt I'll bump it up higher than +2 level and 6 man spawns, but I am sure I will occasionally run in situations with tougher and more enemies on a few PuGs. I'll pay attention to see if I am inadequately controlling/killing spawns.|

Thank you all for the advice and discussion. It is very helpful for me to hear other peoples opinions and especially useful when they back it up with in-game experiences so that I can relate it to actual use and decide whether or not it would fit with my (and my friends) playstyle.

I generally play my Fire/Rad in the way Local_Man suggests, but have Team Teleport in my second build for when my wife's Fire/Rad is with me.
The HF/CC combo is our bread and butter, and although we use Flashfire occasionally, it's not really needed. If anything, they're not level 50 yet because we play characters that are more challenging most of the time. We teleport in and by the time Cages fires off (to keep them in range and set containment), almost everything is held and dying.
You might consider a second build to see which way yields better results.
Edit: Keep in mind that both Hotfeet and CC are very slot hungry, so YMMV. I wouldn't consider giving them less then 6 slots each in most cases.
I've been thinking of making a Fire/Rad/Psi for the HF+CC+WoC combo, and Local Man mentioned Bonfire. Is the -KB in Fire Cages is enough to use Bonfire beneath the spawn without scattering it all over, or will it move the mob around anyway?
Also, I was thinking of just saying "forget it" to trying to get more defenses through IOs and instead slot for recharge, endurance modification/reduction, control, and damage. Do you think I'd still be able to manage without faceplanting all the time?
Quote:
That's pretty much what i slot for. The only time I end up faceplanting is if i get sloppy (ie. lazy about dropping debuffs.) Fire/Rad gives you a very versatile toolbox, even at the very low levels. Use the tools right, in the right order, and the world is your oyster. Use them wrong, and the world is a cold, hard floor.

Yes, it is possible to get more damage by using Fire Cages to lock down foes and then Bonfire as an AoE damage power, by continually spamming Fire Cages at least every 12 seconds. Fire Cages will often miss one or two (it has a 20% acc penalty), and that one or two will go flying off. I generally use Bonfire underneath foes with -knockback for the added damage, but I don't use it usually as a damage power as I feel that the endurance usage of spamming Fire Cages exceeds the benefit of the added damage. -- foes die fast enough from Hot Feet, occational Fire Cages and Fire Imps while held in Choking Cloud. And that combo uses a lot of endurance.|

However, on AVs, I like using Bonfire. It knocks away the others while we work on the AV, and adds a little extra damage. Choking Cloud provides little benefit on AVs, so I often turn it off.

One of my regular buddies tried that team teleport trick. Three or four of us had Fire/Rads, and he would Team-TP us into every group. I found that we took more damage than we would have if we had used Flashfire+Fire Cages and then had run it. We tried alternating Cinders, and that helped, but I liked the other way better. It was an interesting experiment, though.|

I agree that both Choking Cloud and Hot Feet are slot-hungry. You might be able to get away with only 5 slots at level 50, but there are so many good things to put in an extra slot that it is worth while to use it. In Choking Cloud, I have a Lockdown +2 Mag proc, which I love.
because of the mechanics of CC, it will often lock down foes who would not otherwise be held.
In Hot Feet, I like to squeeze in a little Slow with the EndRdx, Damage and some accuracy. The slow keeps the foes in range longer, letting Choking Cloud have more pulses to hit its hold.
