I bet this threat will turn into some flaming thread 
The epitome of Blaster's communion with debt is when finally you get Rise of the Phoenix from the Fire Epics. And use it in your attack chain.

No Ice/Fire or Arch/Dev though. The only two I've ever found to be fun
"Well, they found my diary today.
They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.
Women wrapped in silk
with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"
Bah, blasting's like Bruting, except you do alot of it from further away and you die faster
My PBAoEs on my blaster are just as close to the foes as my brutes, what's this range of which you speak? Some cowards way out?

Well after respecing my blaster at lvl 46 I had a moment of enlightenment myself and I suddenly discovered I didn't have to die on every other mission. Switching from a max damage build has reduced my effectiveness (read that as maximum damage to max mobs) when teaming with a defender/controller who could keep me alive, to a build with holds and disorients and taking so little damage during a mission that I didn't feel the need to pop an insp.
Hell I might go say hell to some stalkers in PvP >

This is exactly how my blaster is turning out. High single target damage is far safer. If I am alive I am blasting, all the better I say. AoE's may pump out some nice orange number's , but the risk of all out aggro is far greater.

Yes, but then again I'm still not getting rid of my trip mines and time bombs. Caltrops in great when retreating round a corner to start single blasting.
In a rare moment of enlightenment......................
Blasters are the perfect AT, for playing this game.
Let me explain, once you get into the blasting grove there really is no stopping you. Which contradicts the fact that you are; at any given moment, only seconds away from eating dirt. This is what makes them so much fun, there is a real sense of high risk and higher rewards. Also this is the only AT that I am never bothered about debt, because you can clear it so quickly.
I know many will say that this is quiet a bold statement. Yet strangely enough my blaster sat on a shelf for some time until I realized that there was a Zen to the Art of Blasting. (there is also an underlying selfishness to the Art, after all there are very few powers that directly alter (buff) your fellow team mates). Which makes is such a joy to play.
I am not sure if I have adequately explained this moment of enlightenment, but after many, many hours of playing it is like a breath of fresh air.
