It will work fine as does a similar build for Fire/FF. It solves one of the problems of controllers of this nature, how to keep the offensive toggle from dropping due to mez.
I would probably do the build a bit differently but that should work fine.

what would you do? im just tryin to find a way for my main toon of the last several years to stay on par with my newer projects. its just troublesome b/c i know no amount of tweaking will make this a viable soloer. all my new stuff solos and tackles content like a hungry wolf but with this guy its just being chill

It's not defense that will make it a "viable solo'er". Ice/FF alone without def bonuses is a very safe build, the problem is damage output. i.e. stupify in repulsion bomb, no damage power from your APP, etc. The enemy isn't going to look and see a toon is softcapped and then just fall down and give up. To solo you have to defeat/arrest/kill/whatever the enemy. You'll be able to do it but very very slowly a little damage enhancement and a power or two will be quite helpful for this build. That build looks much more like a team build; and a decent one, but not a solo'er.

yeah that one is strictly team support. soloing was just painfully slow..but i looked into modifying my old soloing build just to see if it was possible to improve my chances now with inherent fitness. wish i had the slot to spare for air superiority, ended up getting hover just for an extra lotg 7.5
this is hardly perfect but im working on a budget and almost no sleep
