Just curious, really:

Does Ignite benefit from Scourge?

Ouch. Nasty.

Thanks!

Gaspard says big YES too.

Wow. Another good reason to play an AR corruptor!

Haha, just what I was thinking. If I didn't already have 3 Corruptors in progress, I'd roll up an AR/Traps Corr right now!

I have an AR/Dark, its pretty sweet

Yes AR really rocks when you get access to the both cones, plus beanbag is really good for some annoying lt's. Also it's great how AR can take down all mobs minions and with buffs even lt's while they're at it, I mean nearly all corruptors can do that, but give AR few seconds and it's ready to do it again.
Also it doesn't take long for me to kill a lethal resistant foe with ignite/immobilise combo.

I always thought I was the only person who liked playing AR...atleast the only lvl 50 one. :/

And one final point about ignite, it recalculates scourge for every tick of damage.

I have an AR/Dark as well Stalk-obot and I can concur, they are pretty sweet.

Surprised myself yesterday when I took down an +1 longbow ballista EB in melee range. The combined debuffs of dark servant, darkest night and twilight grasp meant he was punching air for most of the fight.

Follow up question for those with AR/Anything-other-than-Traps:

How do you keep the enemies in the Ignite patch, without a hold/immob power with the duration and short recharge as Web Grenade?

Without immob/hold, you don't.
Unless you stun them with beanbag and -spd them or something.

I waited till I got my APP and after I got the APP immob, I took ignite. Other than that, I have no idea.

I cant. That is why my AR corruptor is built for teams. I have a very team focused secondary with Cold and wont even attempt to solo with him at the moment. I initially thought snow storm slotted for slows, and all the other slows I get from Cold would be enough, but it isn't enough to take full advantage of Ignite.

Either team with people that can hold/immob, or it is going to be a long hard slog until you get your patron immob.

Cold is mostly team set anyway, AR corruptors can solo without ignite/immob. Dark and traps get it fairly early, but for example on my kin I could solo just great without immob/ignite because the flamethrower, good damage buff/debuff and heal.

Depends really on how team supportive secondary you play.

Thanks for the replies.

Against my better judgement, I'm toying with the idea starting an AR Corruptor and was just looking at the secondary options.
