LS Consular Versus DS Consular

I'm playing the game over for probably the fourth time now. I've already used both Sentinels and Guardians as my characters, and now I'm taking on the role of a Consular. Currently, I'm on Taris, level 6 Scoundrel and I'm going to stop leveling up there. I can't decide whether to be a DS or a LS Consular, because I've already beaten the game on both paths. I'm considering dark side since it has a lot more offensive powers (i.e Death Field and Force Storm), while the only offensive moves for Light Side is Force Wave and your lightsaber. What would you suggest?

With a high CHA, you get a cost reduction on opposite Force Powers, so don't let one side be a deciding factor.
I'm going off memory here, but I think the LS mastery is more useful than the DS mastery. (+3 WIS vs 50 extra FP, IIRC?)

Force wave is pretty powerful. Spamming it will get you through the game.

The Final Robes you get on the star forge will help you a lot more if you go LS +5 to wisdom (i think, but it is wisdom for sure), than if you go DS +4 to strength (which dosent really help consulars).
