So I'm considering making a Dom to celebrate my purchase of Going Rogue, and I've narrowed them down to two after, uh, writing this thread over and over.
I'm thinking HARD about Electric Control, but I don't know how well it would play at high levels. It seems sort of like Fire Control, only with knockback and a confuse instead of a stun and Bonfire. IS it that offense-heavy? Also, how does the Aura hold up?
Gravity has always appealed to me from a concept standpoint, since you can hurl someone into the air with Lift and then fry them before they hit the ground. Also, the pet looks awesome. I've always been put off by how long it takes to get Wormhole, however, and I don't know what powers are worth taking in the set, aside from Wormhole, Singularity, The ST Hold, and maybe either the ST or AoE Immobilize to keep enemies from running after they're stunned by wormhole.
Fiery Assault is definitely my choice for primary, because the thought of the newly available controller Epics with Fiery Embrace makes me drool. I've never made a /Fire dominator, either. Before picking the AoEs on my Fire/Elec Dom, I had this stupid idea that they should only be ST damage. Boy was I wrong on that front. :P
It's been a while since I've run a Dominator, and my choices were very different: An Earth/Earth Dom that uses AoE control and stomps into the fight next to his pet, and a Fire/Elec Dom which can attack at any range while the imps work their magic.
Both ARE very offense-oriented Dominators because, let's be honest, if I'm going to make a Dom, I want it to be able to lay down the pain. It's the reason why they're so fun to play!

Too many alts to list.
