Completely lost on how to build this concept (Magic armed mage)

Looking to make a mage that has one magical arm. Whether it be elemental or whatever but all powers must come from one arm. So far I've looked at ice but I've always had a hard time with ice so I'm open to suggestions.

    Well, fortunately, many of Sorc's basic dps attacks emanate from the left hand (Soul Beam, Star Barrage, Hex or the Wisp from Infernal). So you could just make it a Sorc dps build at base, and maybe tack on other powers that fit the look (Whirlpool, Storm Strike, and Meteor Blaze are Ults that also use the left arm to cast, for example). For example:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform (Ranged Damage)
    v3.45:38

    Level 6: Intelligence (Primary)
    Level 10: Endurance (Secondary)

    Level 15: Accurate (Dex: 5, End: 5)
    Level 18: Healthy Mind (Con: 5, Int: 5)
    Level 21: Acrobat (Dex: 5, Con: 5)

    Vindicator: Merciless (3/3)
    Vindicator: Focused Strikes (3/3)
    Vindicator: Mass Destruction (2/3)

    The open slots can be w/e ya want.

    Keeps the Wisp up in general, while using Star Barrage for AoE and Soul Beam for ST. Gears mostly for Int, and some Con.
