???/Storm

Back in the beginning..like pre-issue 5 days, I had a storm/elec def..and it was good..really good.

But now we have corruptors and they are BETTER!

So like in the title I want a /storm but not sure about which blasting set to go with.

ive played almost every ranged set into 30s and just wanted to hear of anyones experiences as a /storm corr

I think just about anything can work with Storm, it has so many ways to make the other guys life miserable. My personal fave is my Fire/Storm Corrupter. I never get tired of the Fatal 4, Freeze Rain + Rain o FIRE + Snow Storm + Fireball. And if there's any survivors, a Breath of Fire oughta finish em.

Fire/Storm: Spectacular and powerful.

Ice/Storm: Slightly less spectacular but somewhat more survivable.

Energy/Storm: Not the best from a min/max DPS perspective, but with all the knockback great at feeling powerful in a "get away from me, you insects!" way.

I've had fun with all three.

I think /Storm works better on Controllers, but for Corruptors I like Dark/Storm. Dark/ provides a self heal to patch up the occasional hit that gets through. The immobilize in TT can be nice depending on your playstyle. It helps prevent runners triggered by the fear effect LS and Tornado have. It's also nice if you like to use the positioning tools to push mobs into a corner and keep them there. Then there's the synergy between the -tohit in the blasts and Hurricane. The lack of Aim in Dark Blast isn't a problem due to the -def in Freezing Rain.

I love my ice/storm. If you want a parade ruined, he's your guy.

I'll second what everybody else says, though - Storm's flexible. Try it with AR, try it with Sonic, whatever. I'd be a little reluctant to use it with any set with a quality PBAoE, since Storm's so good at keeping enemies at range, and Hurricane is kind of at cross purposes with, say, Irradiate. This would rule out elec/storm, though, so take it with a grain of salt.

Ice/Storm was a great choice thematically for me (i've just started leveling one). It's lots of fun and I love the effects, though I wonder what sort of attributes I should try to focus on when I start to IO out the character. Focus on damage? On slows? Any thoughts?

I've seen Fire/Storm do some serious damage and chaos

Ice/Storm would provide a little more mitigation and protection though.....problem is I cannot get over the pure joy that is fire.

Archery/STorm!! Rain of Arrows, Freezing Rain! Also very thematic.

Another vote for dark/storm/soul.

It's awesome.

Lots of control.
