Generally when the question involves getting more damage, the answer is fire.
Wormhole and Rain of Fire would have good synergy of the radius of wormhole were in any way comparable to the radius of rain of fire.
Slot 3-4 damage procs (you'll need the expensive PVP one if you go for 4) into Crushing Field and spam it hard.
Lift is a fast activating attack with decent damage, albeit delayed slightly. Don't bother with Propel.
In any case I agree.. if you want more damage really just go for fiery assault and the fire APP. You will probably need more damage to take things out before the stun from wormhole wears off because Gravity doesn't get a convenient AoE mez with a decent recharge... you can open with wormhole but using it mid-combat is finicky at best.

/Fire. Hard to go wrong with /Fire. Of course, this leaves you worthless for control for a good long while, but you know the risks when you choose to make Gravity characters.

Thanks for all the responses! I thought as much but frankly i wish Gravity was better balanced as a set. I mean even some of the powers just don't make sense (how do gravity powers phase something -even temporarily?). Oh well, i will try out the suggestions. Thanks again!

With sufficient gravitational force, it is entirely possible to bend reality. You see the effect around black holes and the like.

What I did with my Grav Dom was build for defense and play him like a Blaster with a bit of control.
At level 50, look to the AoE immobilize. Slot Chance for Knockdown and Chance for Hold. Spam lots.
For secondaries, one route may be Fire Assault, as stated above.
Route 2: Gravity/Psi/Psi. Psinado isn't the best damage but it has 50% chance of knock up, and the immobilize won't interfere with it. Link Minds combined with a few other defense powers can push your defenses up. Psi Assault/Psi APP together provide a lot of -Recharge over a large area. Indomitible Will provides a huge Psi defense boost when its active.
Route 3: Wait to see what Dark Assault looks like. -ToHit would probably help Gravity out a lot, if there is very much in the set and it covers a decent area.
Grav / Energy. Lift and Power push gives some fun single target damage/mayhem. And throwing stuff around is fin.

1. Dimension Shift every other mob.
2. Slot Wormhole for range. Run two mobs ahead of your team. Wormhole that mob into the middle of the mob your team has already engaged. Your team will love having extra playmates.
@Celestial Lord and @Celestial Lord Too
Pyronic Judgement. Reactive Interface.
Please buff Ice Control.
the real answer is to make a gravity controller
controllers can use all of the attacks in gravity, and then get a buff/debuff set
gravity is a fine set, just not for dominators
