Which Corruptor?


Crystalline

 

Posted

Greetings All!!

I am sitting in a quagmire into which corruptor to build (read:IO) next...

Currently I am sitting on the following: (All lvl 50 btw)

Rad/Therm
Rifle/Time
Ice/Kin
Fire/Pain
Sonic/Sonic

The only one with real "work" into him is the sonic/sonic (built for lolPvP before they nerfed Sonic Cage)

I have the resources to "fully" IO any of them out..just curious what a general concensus would be to which one to choose..and any reason why.

The direction I would like to head is a team oriented character that can hold his own in the damage department..just a good well rounded toon in general. Rech>Def>Dam>Regen is the kind of path I am looking for.

Kotchie, we need you back to teach people how to lead the TPN on freedom please.

Go with the Fire/Pain.


The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.

Ice/kin

Let's you build for defence as recharge and damage are insane out of the box. Your heal is up every 10 seconds or so, so regen isnt as much an issue. Even without all that, scourging FS'd blizzard is enough of a reason.

And yet, that indicates to me that this one would do well enough without IOs and so shouldn't be the choice. I have a 50 Ice/Kin Corruptor and can vouch for this as well - you don't need much recharge, don't need damage, Freeze Ray gives you less need for defense, you can refill your end or hit points... sure you can IO it, but why? Just play it and watch things drop anyway.

I'd go with the Rad/Therm. Rad Blast is a lot more fun with lots of procs.

I'll jump on the Fire/Pain bandwagon. My sonic/pain is great on teams. My fire/rad, who is lower level, has so far had no issue with anything either solo or teamed. I would imagine the combination would bring you good support capabilities with a significant damage contribution, and would be a lot of fun.

LOL...I am trying out some new toons to play on the trials..I am always haunting around for trials...just not on my main...I know COX is all about the journey to 50, but I prefer to play endgame content more than grinding up toons.

Fire/Pain seems to be a good concensus...anyone got a decent build to work off of that they can share?

Pain or Sonic because nobody plays these sets anymore

Actually you can make a pretty good Sonic/Sonic without breaking the bank since Liquefy is the only power you'd want recharge for anyway, and not worth it. And then you can use the monies for the Fire/Pain and have two good corrs.
