Just looking for some feedback on my build. Built for single target damage dealing, buffing, debuffing, healing, etc. I tried to get a good mix of Def and Recharge. Ended up not capped to anything, but a small purple away from s/l/e and ranged.

Bear in mind that this is a team focused build. My solo build obviously looks a good deal different.

Hi there, first off id get rid of Soothing Aura, sadly on a corr its a total waste of time. I have a 50 sonic/pain/dark and i tried soothing for a while and it was just pointless really. Pain in the *** then MM get a much better version but eh what can ya do.

Secondly id make sure you have hasten in your build, you wanna try get the recharge of pain bringer and world of pain as low as you can so then you can at least have perma WoP and keep up with pain bringer.

You basically need alot more recharge.

I wouldnt be too concerned with def mainly because pain has a res aura so id mainly go with getting alot of res.

Silas gives fantastic advice when it comes to corrs, so id highly recommend seeing what he has to say about pain in that guide.

Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for the feedback. I hadn't ever used Pain on a Corr before, and I guess I didn't look at Soothing Aura's numbers close enough. Yeah, that's pretty paltry. Thanks for pointing that out. Also, thanks for the link. I'd seen that write-up of Silas' before, but WAY before I'd even thought to make a Pain Corr... Totally forgot about it since then. GLad to reread through it.

I'll juggle some stuff around and see what I can come up with.

In the meanwhile, any more suggestions or feedback from anyone else out there with experience using Pain on a Corr would be welcomed.

I never understand the [Soothing Aura] hate for Corrs. It isn't a high number, but it ticks fast enough that solo it can be a life saver, and it sure doesn't hurt anything on a team build either - particularly if you haven't skipped anything important to get it.

I'd echo the [Hasten] comment, keeping the buffs/debuffs up fast is nice with pain.

City of Heroes was my first MMO, & my favorite computer game.

How fast does it tick? And, would it actually 'help' on a team build, or is it going to be mostly helpful during soloing? If it's best for soloing, I can find other things to do with the power slot, and enhancement slots.

ticks every 4 seconds I believe, I remember reading it tops out at 80hp for a tick... so call it 1200/min

Mostly helpful solo, no doubt about it.

If you have something desirable on your team build, you're probably safe comfortably making that choice, as the aura's range isn't tremendous.
