Been going through a few respecs on my Ice/Time Corruptor to max this/max that. Or what would be very fun.

I've gone from Ice/Time/Power and although /Power is very good for Time.. I felt it kind of boring. So I then switched to Ice/Time/Soul.. Much less boring and somewhat end heavy.. But had powerboost to bolster my defenses.. I did find the pet sort of useless for my style of play on my Corr (I typically herd mobs and am right in the thick of everything, and even with Powerboost + Clarion Farsight.. My Fortunata still died. FAST.)

And now I am onto Dark Mastery.. Which I have not yet respecced into. From the looks of it... it seems like it will fit the bill pretty well for me. Oppressive Gloom seems like it would be handy to stun those pesky minions, and since I am always in melee range anyways.. it seemed even better. Dark Embrace is the usual resist shield.. Nothing to say there. But then Dark Mastery's Soul Drain... YES! =] SO, SO much better than Soul's.. Not only is it perma after enhancement boosters on my build.. But it hits more targets as well, according to my mids. And then to top it all off.. Dark Consumption is there for when my end bar is at about 15 or so (Which takes a long time of consistently fighting.)

The only things I am stressing about is not having the MASSIVE defense buff from a Powerboost + Clarion. And I also like Frost Breath too, It's actually nice if you can drop an Ice Storm and then instantly hit Frost Breath fron range and jump into the mobs and blast away. I am not well educated in the ways of Opressive Gloom, so if taking Frost Breath over it would work well.. I am all game for that.. But I would lose some melee and AoE defense.. Anyways, here is the planned build!

(P.S. The Apocalypse set is a superior ATO set.)

Few things.. The idea of running around with basically a permanent 100% damage boost sounds nice :P as long as I don't run out of mobs that is.

Also, the defense that you probably see is with no Clarion boost.. So with the ATO added.. That's 42% melee, 39% ranged, and 41% AoE before Clarion. I am considering the other unique +3% defense to all IO.. But not sure if I will get it.. I suppose if I am patient I can eventually get enough Hero merits to acquire it.
