Wanting a new corruptor: Help me pick :)
DP/Traps might be a nice themed combo. Having mez protection from Forcefield generator is great on a squishy. I have played a Traps/AR defender to 50 and it was brilliant.
Another couple of Corrs I have a blast with are dark/dark and sonic/pain.
Where to find me after the end:
The Secret World - Arcadia - Shinzo
Rift - Faeblight - Bloodspeaker
LotRO - Gladden - Aranelion
STO - Holodeck - @Captain_Thiraas
Obviously, I don't care about NCSoft's forum rules, now.
Any other suggestions? I see the potential fun in a /Traps Corr but I already have a /Pain Corr in the works and just got done with the /Dark one. Unless some real interesting combo comes up I think I will hold up on trying those two again for the immediate future.

The hard things I can do--- The impossible just take a little bit longer.
If numbers are so much more important than a teammate who is fun to play with, forget about the game altogether and go play with a calculator instead. -Claws and Effect-
Fire/Traps or Fire/Rad.

Ice/Storm is really fun and a plays a bit different than my other corrs. Double rains with interface is yummy. Very heavy on end while leveling up though.
I have an AR/Traps that is a lot of fun. Mind he's still low level, but he's fun.
Maybe look at DP/Traps. And there is always Dark/Dark.

I have a DP/Kin that is really fun. DP is a little light on the damage but has great AOE stuff. Currently playing an Ice/Rad that is a lot of fun but wish I had gone Fire/Rad for the better AOE.
Dark/traps. So much fun, and the two sets work great together. PGT + Tentacles + Drones + Trops + Nightfall = blind, immobilized, weeping spawns of at least 0/+8 enemies.

I have a Traps/Dark defender. There is a special synergy that is hard to measure statistically, but it plays well. The corruptor version should be nice once things come together in the 20ish levels.
I have a Sonic/Kinetic corruptor that is all about sonic and kinetic debuff. He is very useful on teams. The knockback, sleep, and stun in sonic blast are great soft controls. Who doesn't like speed boost and fulcrum shift?

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
Rad/Thermal!
Rad changes things up from the Fire Blasting you've been doing. Thermal Radiation because its a good set and not many seem to use it.

I have a Sonic/Dark/Psionic Mastry that I love!
I used to slot Fearsome Stare for fear until I switched and slotted for the -Tohit.
This combo offers:
--2 ST holds
--1 fear
--1 stun,
--1 sleep,
--1 aoe stun,
--1 toggle -Tohit
--1 heal that has a -Tohit
--1 intangibility power(If you want)
--1 pet that heals, holds, debuffs and Immobs
From the primary you get stacking -Res that can also stack with the -Res from Tar Patch. I am sure I am missing more but right now I am at work and will edit this post.
I would go with Sonic/Dark/Psi

Now I'm not going to say a Sonic/Dark Corr isn't awesome, but the OP has a Fire/Dark, I'd say switch it up if he's looking for something new.
Though if he wanted to keep Fire Blast, I'd suggest going with Fire/Traps.

After reading this thread I will probably roll a DP/Traps. That does sound like a good combo. How is the redraw though? The redraw between DP and Kin is pretty bad.

I'm thinking about making an AR/Storm...haven't seen too many around, and I like Storm.
Don't I know you???
Redraw is not too bad, and generally speaking I set whatever traps I want to use before I pull out my pistols. Depending on the circumstances this might just be Caltrops, or it might be a full Seeker Drone/Poison Trap/Acid Mortar/Trip Mine sequence. That debuffs everything nicely then out come my guns.
Before anything else, I should say that I already have a Fire/Cold that's fully IO'd at 50, and a Fire/Dark that's also fully IO'd at 50.
I have a 33 Energy/Pain corr that I've been neglecting for a while....and I've recently started a Fire/TA corr as well for experiment. I've never played Trick Arrow before so I'm not exactly sure how that one will turn out..some word on that would be appreciated.
Now, with that out of the way: What are some Corruptor builds that you've played aside from the Fire/Cold and Fire/Dark that you really enjoyed and would actually recommend people to try? I thought about DP/Kin before, but decided against it for now..although I can see why this combo can be pretty fun.
I'm not considering Assault Rifle for now, since I have an AR blaster in the works. And I'm not a big fan of Archery..other than that I'm open to any suggestions :-)
