as a seconday which one would be better at dps vs hard targets. i thoroughly enjoy rage and it give a huge heap of dmg and although the crash is only 10 seconds its still a crash. would fire eek it out over a prolonged fight with the occasional build up?

im inclined to think that the answer is ss purely based off of rage. any insight on the 2 powersets vs each other would be much appreciated

Super strength is primarily Smashing damage, which is highly resisted in game.

Fire is a mix of Fire and Lethal. Lethal is also highly resisted, but Fire isn't as much.

Super Strength is more focused on ST attacks until Footstomp, where Fire has 3 AoE/Cones.

I would tend to lean towards Fire as the AoE attacks are great for mowing down larger spawns, but if you're more focused on single hard targets you won't go wrong with Super Strength.

On a personal note I tend to use Dark Melee on ST focused toons, but that's because I really like the set.
