Corr's are the best pvp AT in the game for PvPteams. 1 corrupter isnt hard to take down, 2 corrupters can be hard. 5+ and you got your self a walking army. 2 things powerwise wins in PvP thats buffs and damage, corrs brings loads of both to the table.
I was in sirens 1 time on my ice / rad corr and we were getting destroyed, then I started sending tells to every corr I could get my hands on. We buffed up and destroyed all the heroes.

Yeah corruptors kinda lack most things in pvp not debuff and damage but they not concentrated on one thing more like a defender. If u ever fiting darksiren u wont say corruptors are weak she perma fears u,debuffs u,tar patches u,then amplfiy and starts battering u and then once u out like most ppl u get tped back into the dreaded pit get debuffed attacked and darksiren has a habit of spamming the rez, Stuns all da squishies [img]/uk/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

hehe i've been on wow again the past week, just thought i'd have a look at the boards while the servers are down, nice surprise thanks all [img]/uk/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Anway corruptors are truly a force to be reckoned with when played properly, i feel the trap most fall into is trying to play them as blasters or defenders, if you try this you will be disapointed, they only really shine when you find the right balance between the two roles.

Corruptors can be ace in PvP
My corruptor is Dark/Thermal, in a team I can give everyone Fire+plasma shield, followed by the lifesaving thaw. Then im out there healing and firing off my dark attacks.
2-3 hits from my primarys (slotted for -acc) and I can stand infront of a scrapper and wear him down as he cant hit me at all! If im teaming with a /ice and can get defense buffs it makes it even better! Add to this darks high damage and Scourge and your corruptor is laughing!
Im now just waiting for forge (stalkers with 2 shields, thaw and forge even scare me) and the amazing debuffs at the end of the thermal set. . .bye bye granite tanker [img]/uk/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
In reply to the original post, ive been told I get targeted for immediate takedown as my debuffs "really really hurt!" i was well chuffed [img]/uk/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
There's basically 2 reasons why corrupters are typically being singled out to take down first:
1: Their secondaries helps their team with buffs/debuffs thus making it harder for the heroes to take down the villains.
2: The fact that they have lower/no resistances/defense/hps than most other ATs (much like controllers/defenders/blasters on the hero side)
Corrupters are basically monsters in PvP...especially when they get your hps below 50% [img]/uk/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
