I know that DP is prolly the most hated powerset of them all :P Long animation time, mostly lethal damage and not that good all together.. But I can't get passed the point where I the shiny factor of the powerset no longer affects me.. It looks awesum! :P

DP/Poison is what you want. I don't even have a proper PvP build and it can dominate.

DP is not good. I only seen one dp blaster do well in duels and that was pre incarnates. DP does fairly low damage and its only gimmick is that you can put alot of procs into it.

If you have to pick DP on a corr then pick a good secondary. Preferably something with a self heal. Therm and Rad comes to mind.
Pick up mind as a epic for dominate since it hits hard especially when it scourges.

Freedom Server. It has very little to do with DP and everything to do with Poison's -special being on a quick recharge.

Like I said-- if you want to PvP on a Corr, you pretty much want Poison.

Rad-- Toggles debuffs in PvP are kind meh...
Thermal-- Heat Exhaustion still rocks, but it is on a 2 minute recharge.
Cold-- Benumb is great, but has a 2 minute recharge...


Weaken has the same -special debuff as Benumb, but is on a 16 second recharge. That is why this set rocks. If you miss with Heat Exhaustion or Benumb then Thermal and Cold pretty much lose the 1v1 until they recharge. Meanwhile Poison is able to recast another Weaken in less than 8 seconds. It's -resistance debuff is also a fast recharging click with a 30 second duration, while Rad is a toggle (useless), Cold is a location based pseudo pet or a VERY long recharge AoE (very situational), and Thermal is a long recharge AoE (2.5 minute recharge with less debuff than Poison's Envenom, which also has a 12 second recharge).

Poison trumps them all in 1v1 and Zone IMO, but yes, Thermal and Cold still are great choices as well. Just not the best nowadays.

Ice+Poison=Pwnage.

Enemy gets these benefits; Nothing.
