I just facepalmmed myself because i've been confused about Diamagnetic... I thought it was the -dmg one.
Anyway, I'll say make 2. Reactive and Paralytic. The -dmg in Paralytic will serve you much better that the -tohit.
I haven't gotten around to making the second but I'm currently using Reactive on my Icer.

The way the formula for calculating chance to hit works in this game, -tohit on the enemies won't benefit you at all if you are over the defense softcap, unless you are debuffed or something. Paralytic will do much more for your survivability.|

But most people take Reactive, and with good reason. MOAR DAMAGE is always useful no matter what you are doing, whereas the other Interface procs are (at least to a degree) of situational usefulness at best.

That's what I did. Reactive for soloing and Paralytic for grouping/tanking. It works very well.

My Ice/Fire tank is torn between Diamagnetic and Reactive for the extra damage. He has 61% Def to S/L/E/N when EA hits 10 targets (easy enough to do in the iTrials), and 52% Def without it.

I am looking for advice from the tanking community, what do you think I should do?
Make a man a fire and keep him warm for the day, SET a man on fire and keep him warm for the rest of his life.
