Malice of the Corrupter

I was wondering if someone could tell me how this works.

Looking at the set, it seems pretty useless. No S/L defense (which is what I wants), the recharge bonus requires a silly 6 slots, bonus is negitive damage added to an attack...meh.

BUT then someone told me the dominator set gives them a global +damage proc, that applies to all their powers. The wiki info seems to make it seem this is just added to the slotted power...but that is not the case.

So, does Malice of the Corrupter apply negitive damage to ALL attacks, or just the slotted power?

Just the slotted power.

The set itself is a very nice replacement for positrons blast. (although the proc isn't very good in an aoe, the enhancement value and set bonuses make up for it)
The Ranged defense isn't bad, even if you're going for S/L defense.

Except that Posi's blast gives a recharge bonus when 5 slotted. If the bonus was at 5 slots, I would be all over it. It might give better numbers then the other sets...but spending hundreds of millions of inf on a set that will make me respec to make it usefull...and doesnt have a great proc....eep

Thanks for the help and the response!

Its has a nice ranged/energy/neg energy def bonus at least. Adding catalysts can put it up to 5% ranged def....not bad at all.


Don't I know you???

While YMMV, I've always found Ranged and Energy defense to be superior than S/L on a Corrupter build. Could just be a playstyle choice I guess but S/L doesn't seem to provide as much protection in the end-game content.
