What's your fav corruptor?

I think corrs are really cool. So I'm wondering what kind of corrs are your favorite and why!?

I'll start it up:

Ice/cold: good damage, excellent debuff and good control with all the slows.
Also like my dark/rad cor: excellent accu debuff when the team understands how clustering and AoE debuff are handled best.
Fire/dark: great herding + massive AoE damage capacity with nice control potential

Right now you fire it away and enlighten us!

Ice/Cold, cos its mine and the resons you gave. its lovely stuff.

Rad/Kin, i teamed with one alot on my way to 50 and the guy really knew his stuff so i may be biased. but as far as powers go a nice synergy, Rad Defence debuffs to boost the Kin powers, a PBAoE to get the most from FS, great buffs and you can get involed in Melee somewhere i normaly findmyself even on squishies

I love my Ice/Kinetics in PvP and PvE so versatile easily my favourite toon right now Buffs, Debuffs, the great ST attack chain of ice as well as siphon speed and siphon power to increase my recharge and damage. Not to mention fulcrum shift, lost count of the times the opposition team group together, with vengence running, I run in fulcrum shift then 3 shot each of them in turn ^^

I'm leveling an Ice/Sonic Corruptor too which is much more fun than I expected duoing with my mate's Elec/Fire brute we pwn and disruption field combined with frost breath is great

I'm a bit of a corruptor [censored] and I love the thermal set too (I have a lvl 30 on each server) bit tiring keeping everyone buffed but they make such a difference to a team. I may rate it even higher once I get the debuffs

Ice/kin from pretty much the same reasons as thePhilosopher stated plus shes a really good concept charactor and has a duo partner (curse you T *shakes fist*).
Ice/rad for the debuffs and the fact i just love ice and rad but combined .. wooooo.
Fire/thermal .. great for making those brute,tankers,scrappers cry in PVP
Ice/Fire/Dark AoE goodness
Ar/Traps have to admit this is fun in PVP not the ultimate killer but i've had some enjoyable fights with AR/Dev's in sirens.

My favourite is my sonic/kin corruptor. It´s awesome to see the difference he makes in teams, especially when fighting heroes/AVs. This corruptor is so much fun to play and when the team can keep up with his speed SFs and Trials are a breeze and normal missions turn into a slaughterhouse.
In zonal team PvP this corruptor is terribly fast to be tagged as primary target which might have something to do whith that I love to scare scrappers and tankers by draining their endurance, stealing their recharge and reducing their damage resistance to rubble. Often enough scrappers have to learn the hard way that they actually do me a favour by coming close to me. (A heal and endurance bot! Yay!) And sometimes I have to laugh really hard when the tank taunts me and I just think "Oh, how convenient" before I waste him (or force him to retreat via teleport).




If it has
eyes, you can blind it, if it has blood, you can make it bleed, if it has a mouth, you can make it scream.

I'm a corrupter junkie. Mostly because they all seem to play so differently for me and my brain just seems to click with the choose your targets with precision and keep your friends alive/enemies weak mentality. My favorite build right now:

Fire/Cold. For two reasons. One: Cold makes everything retarded...and as far as I can tell nothing resists it. Drop Snowstorm and suddenly an angry mob/boss starts charging at you slooooooowly.
Reason Two: Rain of Fire. Rain of fire, besides doing damage, makes enemies scatter and NOT attack.
Three: Snowstorm and Rain of Fire means that mobs of enemies are on fire, stuck in slow motion, and are not even thinking of attacking you any time soon.
Good times.

I think the real reason I like corrupters so much is that when teaming with them you never know what their contribution is going to be. Brutes, Stalkers, and even Masterminds to a lesser extent...you know what they're bringing to the party more or less. But corrupters? Debuff monster? Knockback psycho? Buffbot extrodinaire? Healer? Sniper of Doom? I don't know. Corrupters just strike me as far too flexible for their own good. That's probably why I have so many alternative builds on the servers of them.

Sonic/Traps. Not the most popular choice, but its fun placing your acid mortar into a tanking position, pull your enemies onto poison trap, and grind them down. Plus your damage increases during your attack chain due to the -res in sonic. Good stuff. I like my dark/thermal as well which was built just to support a team.

My rad/cold simply cos its so wierd and somewhat rare

Not great in damage, not going to heal me, hell its not doing alot bar generate alot of noise from the shields but by jove, that targets defence is sure coming down fast

*awaits at least 12 people to say that have one*

Dark/Rad as well - tenticles holding my debuffed foes together is so sweet

sonic/sonic love playing this guy lvl 33 at the mo slowly pushing towards 50 is any lvl 50 sonic/sonic on unions??

My Rad/Thermal is pretty nifty in a team, but it is currently built for support so can't really function solo.

On the other hand, my Energy/Kin is a monster solo and, thanks to the greatness of Kinetics, pretty handy to have in a team, too.

Can't really call him my favourite as he's my only one. Dr Ruin is my Sonic/Dark Corruptor.

The -res from sonic stacks with the -res from Tar Patch and as -res makes -dam more effective, that gives some truly awesome damage mitigation.

He's pretty nifty, his biggest achievement is managing to tank a few AVs in a duo with a dominator. In the 2-3 cases where it has been successful, it did require luck.

Also with Fearsome Stare and Howling Twilight ( I'm a villain I don't use it as a resurrect ) as control he is pretty effective.

That makes me want to play him again.


@Unthing ... Mostly on Union.

Have only played Fire/Dark to a reasonable level (post-32), but definitely one of my favourite toons for the fun of Herd N' Burn™ .

Also have a lowbie sonic/cold which I might stick with, and a dark/cold. Both seem good PVP material.

Would play a /kin again if I wasn't over-kineticized atm...

Team-mate 1: SB plz!
Team-mates 2-7: SB!
Me: yes, I'm getting to all of you and trying to control a bit too.
Team-mate 4: can I have double SB?
Me: Erm... I'm the only kin on team, I can't stack them.
Team-mate 6: can you SB my imps too?
Me: Erm... might be more useful if I Fulcrum behind the tank, one second.
Team-mate 2: SB pls!
Me: it's still active.
Team-mate 2: yes, but it's gonna go away soon.
Team-mate 7: oh wait, I don't want SB in caves!

You have debuffed shoes?

Well I've only ever played a Fire/Dark one, but so far it's extremely fun. Stealthing to the boss, using night fall on him and running back to entrance with a huge mob train and then BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURN.

It does go wrong sometimes though, mostly when I get held or de-toggled or something.

AR/Kin, for the win. It must be good, it rhymes. I'ts also great because of one simple equation:

Fulcrum Shift + Full Auto = Carnage
