Count me as "AR/TA" lover also, just made one and its pretty much the funniest Corruptor if have played so far. A good friend of mine also plays one and he seems to have a blast too. To each his own but theres something that makes me happy everytime I shove a shotgun blast up a Longbow's face 
Beware what lurks in the Shadows
I love my AR/Traps/Mace corrupter.
I love my lvl 50 AR/DEV blaster, wich i can't stop play (is my main)
I also love my lvl 50 AR/traps corruptor
... and finally i'm having a great time with my new cold/AR defo
If i could make an AR scrapper, i would make one.
People in general don't like AR, cause they consider it an underdog (no nova, redraw, only lethal/smashing damage.....blah,blah,blah). Personally i think that the underdog powersets and combos are great challenge and a lot of fun to play and make them work.
On the other hand, in my server (defiant), i see a lot of AR blasters, but no corrs till now exept me
defiant only

But, on my server, I seem to be the only one who has an AR/TA. I was wondering: why is that? What does everyone else know that I don't know? BTW, off subject a little: I need a BFG for my AR Corr (one of those mini guns that the Council and Longbow or Nemesis Soldiers have). It would be perfect for my character, "Warface." |

AR is at the same time my favorite primary and most hated.

Most AR players see Full Auto as a better alternative to a nova because it doesn't crash your end bar. Smashing damage is only present in M30, and Flamethrower and Ignite are both Fire damage, so I haven't heard that complaint very often either.
The main I hear about AR is unreliable knockback spam. Slug, Buckshot and M30 all knockback and are all available at very low levels, when new players don't know how to use knockback well.
The other complaint I hear from more experienced players is that several powers animate forever. Flamethrower, Ignite, and especially Full Auto have extremely long animations compared to the amount of damage they do.
I love my AR/Cold - it's the only char I bothered getting a full 5 LotGs for. On the other hand, I couldn't imagine playing AR without a heavy debuff secondary. AR/Rad is nice, AR/Dark might work, AR/TA is kinda the redheaded stepchild of a worthwhile debuff set and a joke about redraw.
Love my AR/Rad, perma AM/Haste, FA every 19 seconds :-)

Riffle: ri'-fel; 1.) n, A type of card shuffling whereas the deck is separated into two halves and held face down. then the facing ends of both halves are bent away from one another and allowed to "flick" into place, randomizing them.; 2.) v, to shuffle a deck of cards in the aforementioned style.

AR is solid for folks who will take the time to learn to control the Targeting Arcs. Most of its AOE's are Cones. It requires you to position yourself correctly, in order to get the most bang for the buck. Most people are lazy, and don't want to expend that much effort.
As for Slow Animations, I'm playing 8 man teams, and haven't seen where it is a problem. I also Solo the toon, and haven't had problems. If you use your secondary, your primary will do the damage.
AR Rocks.
Edited to correct spelling.
Black-Strike: lvl 50 AR/Dark Corruptor

I don't like it because I feel it's poorly constructed with no internal consistency. Even if you can make it look different, it's still a frankengun. This is why I like the Wolf Spider Huntsman type build, that lets you use a gun that makes sense o.o

My AR/Rad concept is he has the ability to infect you and make you sick. His ability doesn't kill, but weakens the target immensely. Having no other offensive ability, he uses a rifle for offensive damage.
Not very solid in theme yea, but you kinda wanna force it down when you can use Full Auto every 19 seconds
Darn, I thought this topic was about potato chips.
The Bacon Compels You.
AR/TRAPS FTW!!! Screw the haters! Love the traps!
My main is AR/Dev. He was also my first level 50 and got most of that by soloing.
I love Full Auto, I can use it at least once a fight (twice in big brawls) and that's after its recharge got nerfed.
Black_Strike is right that you have to learn how to postiton your cones, so its not for everyone. But overall I'm quite fond of it.

Moreover, your character names of "WYLDE-FIRE" and "...PUNKT" question your credibility as they have blatant grammar mistakes and spelling errors. Should we respond with "Zomg...Roxxors"?
Careful, calling the kettle black...

That is all.
P.S. I find it a tad odd, that no one commented on the "grammar nazi" (that'd be me) condeming poor grammar while using Rikti-speak, of all things.
