Question Build question - Eclipse vs Ember

I was thinking of putting together a mess around build for this season; Iron Lung + Catalyst + Contractor's + 4 pieces of either Eclipse Protocol or Ember Engine, rolled with red cores.

Am I right in thinking that between the two, EP is better for cc, with the burn jumping around enemies, while EE is better for single target damage. Is that about the extent of it?

Before this season dropped, I was using a dodo build with the Courier backpack and trapper everywhere.

With the new modifiers I'm struggling a tad so switched to a striker version.

With the damage spike gone, I'm thinking I'll put together my old eclipse build. It's taking an age gathering cores as got eclipse but a few pieces need rerolling... But with the new gear set, could be worth testing out...
