Most powerful storm summoner?

Storm/Electric doesn't even make the list?
A procced out storm/elec/elec defender may not give stormtastic damage, but there are different definitions of power. Slot the chance to stun proc in short circuit and ball lightning, combine with thunderclap, lightning storm and tornado to keep entire spawns staggering around half dead with no end. Throw in a thunderstrike from the APP and Voltaic Sentinel for a little damage.
If I'd had it to do over, however, I'd have waited for Going Rogue and rolled with an Elec/Storm Controller and let the gremlins do all the heavy lifting.

Yeah, I haven't played most of the combos listed here so I won't comment on "best" but I can say that my Earth/Storm/Fire has gotten out alive from some ridiculous situations.|

Those first 30 levels of "Gale... Gale... Sands of Mu... Gale... Gale..." were soul-eroding though

A Mastermind /Storm is the best IMO. |

Reasons:
1. Less of endurance problem especially when you run Hurrican and Steamy.
2. Thunder Storme and Freezing Rain all based on "pet" value so it's not like MM debuffs less.
3. You can position Hurrican while your pets fight. (Merc/storm is excellent)
4. Use Tornado to put two Pet Uniques!!!
What's left is to normalize all Assassin Strikes and improve Stalker's old sets (Claw, MA and EM)! You don't need to bring back the missing PbAoE attack. You just need to make the existing ones better! For example, make Slice a WIDER and LONGER cone.

And if you do take group fly supremacy+defense debuffs will help negate the tohit debuff that comes with it(Tactics helps even more)|

And the stuns stack well.
Yeah, I love my mercs/storm.

So long as you have a wall.
Until you start getting some offense in the 32+ game, you're right, though... can't really solo much. After that, you can do it all, though a Dominator would do more damage. Kind of depends on what you want out of your character.
