I have the Trap of the Hunter proc in Crushing Field on my Grav/Storm controller and find it makes the power much more 'spamable' (particularly if you slot some Endurance Reduction) and useful rather than fire it once and then not again.
Ive also been doing a lot of flashback arcs recently and lower lvl TFs and find it useful because it helps boost your damage out put.
I guess the only thing to consider with spamming Frostbite for the additional Proc damage is the -KB element which negates Ice Slick.

I consider ice slick and frostbite mutually exclusive. I either use one or the other in combination with arctic air. The only exception is if a different group gets aggroed, then I will throw an ice slick under the most recent group.

The "general wisdom" is that damage procs do overall more damage in Controller AoE immobilize powers except for Plant's Roots. The question is whether you can get enough Accuracy and EndRdx to be effective.
However, if you can get the Graviational Anchor Chance for Hold, it is awesome. I was on a team of 4 Fire/Rads tonight where we all have that proc, and most of the time the entire spawn was held using that proc. Of course, we had other sources of damage (Hot Feet and Fire Imps).

I am playing with trying to put a lot of damage procs in an ice/kin I am working on lately. I have arctic air slotted with 3 damage procs and world of confusion slotted with 4 damage procs. I am stuggling with slotting up frostbite, as the damage is so small that damage IO's seem like a waste (even with containment), but it will accept 3 damage procs. If the other three slots are given to acc/rech and acc/end, does it make sense to slot the posi's blast, impeded swiftness, and trap/hunter proc's in frostbite?
