What kind of pvp do you want your character for? Corrupter can both buff own team in team pvp or debuff which makes it a good duelist etc etc.

ice/rad is sexy

I have ice/rad, ice/sonic, and ice/kin and I found Ice/Kin to be the best for all round but for PvP for solo PvP ice/rad is probably the best.

Ice/Sonic is only good for high end team pvp

Um can you give some reasons why kin would be best? I have never understood why. Also I dont think I have ever lost a duel to a kin on my blaster. Its got unpredictable heal thats easily counteracted, siphon speed counteracted by jumping(only useful if you got stackable immob or -jump), mediocre end drain, and those were the strengths as far as I can see..

ps. to OT: what happened to cold?

All round includes zones, and arena as well as duels

Ice/Kin is great in team situations because you get the buffs of kinetics for your team mates and stacked siphon speed creates an amazing attack chain, combined with siphon power and fulcrum shift (in the right situations) creates nearly blaster level damage then with unresistable scourge at the end, with vengeance you become a machine with an extra 30% damage, 30% tohit, 30% defence & repel resist.

Ice/Kin isnt for everyone but I have been very successful with mine

Yes, I have no objections against how good kin is in team pvp. I was mainly wondering what would make it good in solo situations. Ps. I have an ice/rad corr myself but I can't overcome the feeling that it is inferior to a defender..

Great thing about corruptors is the synergy a corruptor heavy team has everyone has buffs, everyone can do damage, all you have to do is get someone below half health and their as good as dead once the scourge factor kicks in. Rad corruptors are nice in that kind of team environment but as you said they very much weaker than rad defenders.

As far as I can tell by your description you have duelled a few very bad /kin corruptors then. My sonic/kin corruptor has never lost a duel to any blaster... Well, except one time, but that was really more like a gank than a duel since I was teleported out of a fight and instantly one-shotted. (I had already taken damage and the port came at a most unopportune moment.)
But hunting scrappers is more fun anyway.

P.S. Cold is still fine. Don't know why Traps is on the list and Cold is not. I would prefer Cold anyday.




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.

Same goes around, must have been bad (build) blasters as well then.
