I am a big fan of /traps. It has status protection, a strong +def component, and with some IO work you can get to defense the soft cap.
/Traps and /Storm are the best two secondaries for an Energy/ Corruptor I think. A major reason being that both use several persistent debuffs, so the KB doesn't matter that much since the targets stay weakened even as you throw them around.

Just want to say that as an honest to goodness dsylexic I saw the title of the thread as I heart RNG at 1st and came in here fully hoping to hear of an AV whiffing 10 times in a row while the OP had one hp left in a fight or about 3 purple drops in the same mission.
As to what to pair with Nrg I'd say /Storm if your going to be walking chaos then you should go all out. Nrg/Storm can be one wild mix depending on how you play it.
Also when you consider that Nrg/ Was originally Water blast and was changed when they couldn't make the water look right it fits thematically with storm

Energy/Storm sounds like a lot of chaotic fun, but I do want to be able to find teams now and again. I've been wanting to make a traps corr for a while now, so I think I'll go that route to pair with Energy...but I might make an energy/storm as well just to spread some mayhem now and again. Thanks for the suggestions.
My energy/ corr is sonic, and that worked pretty well. Nothing wrong with mez protection and dmg resistance, esp if you want to focus on your blasting, as I did.

Probably Traps, since many of the debuffs are persistent and you can always KB stuff back into your patches.
You can also just hover above stuff, rendering most of the KB into effective KD.

Seriously, It is easily my favorite blast set. You think it's bad on teams, but you don't want to say that to my face because you think it will hurt my feelings. Go ahead, say it. It won't hurt my feelings, because you are WRONG!
Getting off track. My most blastiest toon is my NRG/NRG blaster, but I find the blaster secondaries extremely underwelming, so I want to try an NRG/? Corr, but am unsure of which secondary to go with for max synergy. Kinetics fits from a concept standpoint, but feels counterintuitive since a lot of the key kin powers could be at odds with the KB in NRG. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
