DP/MM Blaster, or Fire/Fire-which is the better investment?

I'd always go with whichever is more fun for you. /Mental is likely the better high end secondary for soloing, while /Fire can be better for AoE destruction (and therefore general teaming). /Mental's regen debuff, Drain Psyche, is handy vs. AVs and other big game. Hot Feet is my favorite power in the game and amazingly strong. Ring of Fire is a great tier 1 secondary power, Subdual is meh.
I am always biased towards /Fire, but I enjoyed /Mental enough to play it with various primaries and write a guide for it.
Why Blasters? Empathy Sucks.
So, you want to be Mental?
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.
I'm considering DP, while Fire I believe obviously has better damage, I have to admit there's a sort of guilty pleasure to DP. Hmm.
Wasn't there word/rumors on a possible DP buff?

I wouldn't hold my breath for a buff, but DP/MM does plenty of damage, both AoE and single target. You certainly can't go wrong IOing that combo.

I have both at 50, but I'm stuck wondering what to IO out.
DP/MM is fun, as is Fire/Fire. Performance was Fire/Fire with no IOs gives quite a bit of punch, however I noticed that the DP/MM definitely has quite a bit more in terms of survivability.
Any suggestions as to what will give me better mileage for IOing out?
