I can see it being pretty beastly in the higher levels with all those -res effects.
I was thinking on a theme for it, but i wanted to make sure it was a playable. lol
Originally i tried dp/storm (thematics in mind) and realized omg this is made of un-fun

I have only seen one other on Virtue.
It's very playable. I suggest keeping a teammate who's in melee at all times, for Disruption Field, and because Hail of Bullets can really catch the baddies' attention if you use cold or chemical rounds (because of the debuff, I suppose).
You've got built in Mez protection with Sonic Dispersion, which will stack nicely if you take a rez shield from the epic power pools.
The "buff bot" effect, where you're constantly buffing with some sets, isn't so bad with /Sonic, because only two shields will go on everyone and they last 5 minutes. Clarify is a nice mez protection buff with +perception.
My only serious complaint is Liquefy's recharge is far too high to take it seriously.
I chose to emphasize ST damage with my attacks, to play well with Sonic Siphon and help me level early on. You could swing for AoE, too, but I would consider respecing into that after you get Dispersion and some other defensive measures.

I play heroes on Champion.
I play villains on Virtue.
I'll just mention in here that /Sonic is going to be a team-oriented set, and while you'll have some debuffing going on at early levels, you won't have a lot of mitigation or any healing going on to assist with soloing. Along with DP's middle-of-the-road damage output, you're going to start sweating mobs without lower difficulty or some team assistance.
However, with a team you'll notice that you can seriously start kicking out the steamrolling. I started a DP/Sonic on test originally, but dropped it because of trouble in soloing (which is how I do most of my play).
Oddly enough my other DP toon is a storm/DP defender and I actually like him quite a bit. It's a different experience than being a corr, but I think still viable.

sup guys, been away a while. What with the new DP and all is /sonic a viable secondary for it?
