Well, to offer a solution we must find the problem. A current build of your character would be needed. Also, a rough idea of how much time/resources you are willing to put into this would be appreciated.
Dark/Dark corrupter is always welcomed on teams, however if you want big orange numbers quickly, this combo isnt that. Debuff sets can seem to be not contributing alot of time in normal game play, but that is the nature of steamrolling.
Considering I can solo on my level 35 D3 and he's far from properly slotted to where he could be, there has to be build issues.
If you don't have Mid's planner, go here. If you don't want to type in your build, get Titian Sentinel and use the utility feature that let's you copy the build of the character you are currently playing.
Urm, I can't remember where my slots are, but I can tell you what powers I currently have:
Whole Dark Blast set but Dark Pit, and Torrent
Whole Dark Miasma set but Black Hole
Combat jumping/Superjump
Swift/health/stamina
Scorpion Shield, Focused Accuracy, Web Cocoon, Summon Disruptor
I've got a reasonable amount of influence on hand, but nothing extravagant.
IO him out;
.) cap ranged def
.) Get very high recharge
.) Get perma-hasten - or use the spiritual alpha
.) Get level shifted
You'll solo just fine; dark/dark corr's are pretty good.

Though, to be honest, it doesn't have to be that expensive.
You can actually set up a character to get most of that with about a week of game play, at most two. Do TF's, get merits, exchange them for hero merits; either do good rolls or buy LOTG's with them - sell, buy IO's.
Also learn how to play the market, make more money. Most of the IO's you'll need, you'll be able to buy of the market at lower than what you buy SO's at from vendors.
Oh, install mids, and create a good cheap build - if you need help with that, feel free to ask on the forums, plenty of folk here ready to give good advise with that.

It shouldn't be too expensive to softcap ranged def. Thunder Strikes are relatively inexpensive. The Stupefy stun set might be a little pricer but not too bad and can be placed in both Dark Pit and your Rez power for both ranged def and 6.25% recharge bonus (again I forget it's name). You get a little +Def from Shadow Cloak (forget the name right now) and a little more from Hover should you choose to take it. I'd also recommend picking up Maneuvers from the Leadership Pool. Oh, and Dark Servant can take the Blood Mandate pet set (also inexpensive) for some additional ranged def. |

Slotted for recharge can get expensive. V-merits can earn you some fast LOTG 7.5%.

Dark has a lot of options to increase recharge - dark watchers despair is literally peanuts, and gives 5% rech in just 4 slots. Stupefy is cheap too, and there are others. One really just needs to explore.|

I've made pretty good builds that cost less than 500mil - and 500mil is about 1 weeks of work, 2-3 hours a day, even for a totally SO'ed and not well built toon. There is a thread somewhere about this guy who started with 0 and in 2 hours a day of game play made about 1 billion - just using AE reward rolls and marketeering.

Indeed, that was my experience on my Dark/Dark Corruptor as well... up until about level 39. After that, the soloing experience went sharply downhill. Eventually I set the character aside for awhile until the ability to set difficulty to -1 was implemented. Even then, I still found some encounters to end very badly (particularly when the game decides to throw the odd +1 level spawn in missions). And the only way I was able to beat Lord Recluse was by sniping him from the edge of snipe range with a damage proc in my snipe. That took ~45 minutes.

In other news: Endurance is bad enough without running Tough and Weave, and would only be worse with Hasten. Soul Mastery is generally a better thematic fit with ye olde Dark/Dark. And a Dark character with blazing orangeish-white light at his feet (or softly glowing happy yellow hands for that matter) will be the laughing stock of GrimCon.

You should be able to solo Level 50 +1x2 or +1x3 with a purely SO build.
Probably easier on a corr to go s/l softcap and close on nrg than ranged given scorpion shield. Should be fine on most things but take a ton of break frees for LGTF.

That was absolutely not my experience. Starting at about level 39 (with the Patron arc) the character was just getting chewed up constantly in missions. The character went from being a blast to play, to being soul-sucking tedium solo. It was such a shocking change that it was one of the rare instances I came to the board for help, though said help proved futile. I ultimately only went back to it and got to 50 in order to unlock the VEATs. Those last 5 or 6 levels were a dogged grind. Almost as bad as levelling up my Toggle-Man inspired scrapper. Almost.

I just wanted to put out a build that hits s/l soft-cap and perma-hasten that is also ultra-cheap.

That build above doesn't include Fearsome Stare which is reason enough to ignore it. Posis in Howling Twilight, Enfeebled Op in Dark Servant, this is a perfect example of gimping what a powerset is good at in the pursuit of bonuses.
Whatever the build ends up being for the OP, it needs to include a well slotted Fearsome Stare. That itself is worth more than gimping a build just for perma-hasten.
Global = Hedgefund (or some derivation thereof)
Alright, back from class. Some interesting feedback here.
1. I have roughly 100 million inf on hand, possibly more if I sell a pair of purple IOs I've been hoarding.
2. My experience with dark was very similar to Tenzhis, to where I was soloing elite bosses at level 30, after which things become a lot less solo-able.
3. My character is technology origin, which is why he has Black Scorpion as a Patron instead of Ghost Widow. I'm pretty set on taking either Mace Mastery or Dark Mastery as my epic pool because of that.

Let me clarify this again, "To whoever might have been thinking of doing so, *DO NOT* use the build I posted. It is an 'example' of what can be done, not exactly a 'good' build."
Hopefully that should do it for the brainiacs we have here.

2.) *shrug* Build well, and your toon will _do well
3.) Is there a reason why you can't take another PPP? I am not sure which is the best one, but wouldn't it make sense to pick whichever one you feel is the best for the build rather than by origin? I mean, considering you did want to 'solo' right?
Take this thread as a starter; make a build, start another thread specifically asking for advise on it. By the time the thread is done, you should be solid.
Do clarify your cost limits - if you are unsure of the prices, I believe every IO except the LOTG and the Basilisk's Gaze I've used in my build is cheap; otherwise look up the market.

Dark Pit + Howling Twilight = boss level stun. Get enough recharge to use that on every spawn and you can't possibly suck. Stack em both up with Oppressive Gloom and ensure that everything is stunned at all times.
Focus on control, -to-hit and debuffing. Don't go into the fight thinking you're gonna be some kind of ultimate *** kicker. Your role as a Dark/Dark is to debuff your enemies into useless piles of immobilized, to-hit floored, punching bags. Take manuevers and shadow fall and slot em both for defense to help your team out even more.
D/Ds are legendary builds.
Soul Drain will help your low damage.
And as Steel said, craft your purple IOs and sell em. CRAFT being the keyword. You'll get a lot more for it that way. Don't know exactly what you have, but I got 700 million for a single Apoc triple crafted.

I support this post, but let me add that Howling Twilight is auto hit (unless it has been changed), so make sure it is a staple you use when soloing (don't need to rez anyone around you).
I have no problem soloing as an AR/Sonic Resonance Corruptor, so it is hard to fathom a D3 having issues. *Shrugs*. Let me say that at level 39 you are feeling squeezed, but once fluffy can be up more your ability to solo grows exponentially as you approach 50 (and also access to EPP, or Patron pools).
The key as it has been explained above is you have to control/debuff, and then unload.

Let me clarify this again, "To whoever might have been thinking of doing so, *DO NOT* use the build I posted. It is an 'example' of what can be done, not exactly a 'good' build." Hopefully that should do it for the brainiacs we have here. |

With the Incarnate system, I felt like finally settling down and playing my First 50 again. And it is PAINFUL. Sable Tentacle is a Dark/Dark corruptor, and I've been messing around with him again for the first time in a while, but not really making any progress. I tend to feel like dead weight on teams even with all the debuffs I can throw out, and soloing is out of the question.
With incarnates coming out, and inherent fitness, i think it's time to respec him up to snuff again, but I don't really know where to start! So, what do you guys think of dark/dark? Is there anything salvageable here?
