Rad/NRG or Rad/Ice

Both secondaries work concept wise. I am just wondering which secondary has a better synergy with Radiation Blast. PvP is not a factor. I mainly create PvE concept oriented toons.
Thanks in advance.

/Energy is by far better.

I'm wondering about your reasoning. Energy has some good blaps, but Radiation (to me) doesn't seem to benefit as much from Boost Range or Power Boost. Ice appears to add some considerable safety. I would say they are close. What am I missing that makes you say Energy is by far the better option?

Boost Range (Cosmic Burst, Electron Haze, especially), Power Boost (PB'd -def and stun), good high-damage single target attacks.

It doesn't work for my concept nor do i have any interest in that set.

So, no.

The question should be what is the concept? Many of the folks here may be able to give you other suggestions. Power customization has opened lots of options.

With those 2 options, Rad/nrg is going to be heavy damaging/low mitigation while rad/ice will be noticeably lower damage/higher mitigation. That doesn't sound like similar concepts to me.

Go Ice.

While having no idea what your concept is, you say that both work for it.

Energy is FAR more common than Ice, and there's something to be said for originality.
