Pretty much this. The Dom APPs usually have 1-2 ranged AoE powers, and Armor, a Utility power, and maybe a single-target blast or something. |

They could get Rock Armor for the armor, but there are no ranged AoE earth powers except the one that they already get. Even if we rounded it out to giving them Rock Armor, Earth's Embrace, and Rooted (though that would likely never happen), that's still only 3 out of 5 powers, and there's nothing in the game right now that could be used there.

Yeah going to have to agree with the others, the only thing left for earth based powers are just armors, there would be no way to make an Earth APP without making new powers or making the pool OP with like 4 armors. They used the most of the Stone Melee set (Exemptions are Stone fist, Build up, and Taunt) and one power from the Stone Armor set (The only damaging power in the set), and you already get Earth Control. So the only thing left are defensive powers, I could see letting maybe 3 get through but anymore Armors would serously be overpowering it.

Stone Skin
See below
Rock Armor
Earth's Embrace
Dust to Dust (Resurgence clone power-wise, but uses the Zombie invasion get up and dirt falls off you animation)
For the 2nd power one of the following:
Propel Rocks - this is the Kaolin of Earth attack. Make the stats: 1.14 scale smashing and 1.14 scale lethal damage. -15% defense debuff. Mag 2 KB. 24 second recharge, 11.86 end cost. Give it 1.2 accuracy.
or
Grit - Physical Perfection clone
Instead of the self-rez, you could also give them another Animate Stone, but this one is on the 900s recharge, 240s duration plan.

What the hell? Let's buff defenders.
Tactics are for those who do not have a big enough hammer. Wisdom is knowing how big your hammer is.
Pyroclastic Bombardment - A location targetted AoE similar to Rain of Fire but using flaming rocks falling for graphics. Secondary effects could be minor defense debuff and minor to hit debuff.
Rock Armor - As per controller
Earth's Embrace - As per controller
Meteor - A crashless mini-Nuke on a long timer. A flaming boulder falls from the sky and then you have the SFX from Atomic Blast at ground zero.
Heart of the Mountain - essentially confers Granite armor on the Dominator (with Dom AT modifiers) for 120 seconds with a recharge of 1000 seconds and an end crash and domination crash (domination ends if active and the domination bar empties) at expiration.

For anyone who thinks Granite Armor on a dom would be good.... AHAHAHAHAHA.
That said, Strato's suggestion actually looks half way decent with the Kaolin ranged attack.
I'd quite like to have Strato's suggestion available. Although rather than the self-rez, if we're making new powers I'd like to see an AoE - some sort of rain of stones (fairly common for earth magic in fantasy settings), or an AoE version of Stone Spears (though I'm not sure how you make that visually distinct from Stalagmites).
Failing that, power pool customization so I can take the Ice pool, colour it brown, LaLaLaLaLaICan'tHearYou away the ice debuff effects, and call them crystals.
A few of us offered suggestions during the GR beta.
I was thinking something like...
Sand Storm (Rain of Fire Clone)
Rock Armor
Earth's Embrace
Stone Skin
I forgot my 5th suggestion at that time, but...
Propel Rocks (though I'd make this a cone attack, not single target)
...sounds good.
BrandX Future Staff Fighter
The BrandX Collection
There's Gravel, that cone attack that Minions of Igneous use. You could also give them a click version of Granite along the lines of Force of Nature and Surge of Power.
Issue 16 made me feel like this.

Here's my suggestion by modifying the power selections within the Controller Stone Mastery APP.
Hurl Boulder
Fault
Rock Armor
Earth's Embrace
Tremor

I would use this on my doms who all have Ice for sleet and frozen armor.
Very good job. DEVS PLEASE LOOK HERE.
Issue 20? Just a thought.
I'd love to see the following:
Stone Skin
Gravel
Rock Armour
Earth's Embrace
Sandstorm
Though Sandstorm should give -Accuracy in my opinion.
just a wild guess here, Earth Mastery will only come after Sone Blast comes around
