Put 22 levels into it on test and I love it. I happen to be off Tuesday so that sweetens the deal.
You know, just to throw this out there - I had a whole mess of crepes this morning. They're just like pancakes, maybe even better.
I'm thinking a Water/Ice Blaster, since /Ice isn't a very demanding secondary, which should make it easier to build and save combo points.
Well, the combo that seems most natural to me, water/nature affinity, won't be available for a while so I was thinking either a time/water defender or a time/dark corruptor. The first because it the combo seems effective, as time is best on defenders and water blast is going to be strong on all AT's that can use it. The second because coloring dark miasma a light blue makes it look very icy/misty and would make a good thematic combo in addition to being an effective power combo.

I've thought about making a water/kin, water/time, water/poison corrs...
I'll make the kin for sure, but still thinking about the others.

These, but I was also considering Storm and Rad and leaning away from Poison. Poison and Kinetic could be a touch too busy to make good use of the combo system, but at least with Kinetic when you're damage capped from Fulcrum Shift you don't care quite as much...

I'll be an oh so original Water/Storm corruptor 
I had a Gravity/Storm controller that I really disliked, but I've been wanting to try another /Storm AT for a long time. When I saw Water Blast + the kb2kd IO in Tornado, I thought the time had come ^^
Yeah, water/storm corr looks wild. Also, since it is so easy to color the efftects look like lava, a water/fire blaster might be in the works as well.
I'll probably make a Time/Water defender. I leveled a Water/Time corruptor to 41 on beta because I wanted to unlock the Water powers sooner, but I'm a defender at heart.
Plus, Time Manipulation *cough*PBUFarsight*cough* has spoiled me.
@Oathbound & @Oathbound Too
I've been thinking of going Water/Rad with Rad colored to look like water, as apposed to my original plan for a Water/Ice/Lev Blaster.
Goodbye. Not to the game, but the players. Goodbye. Everyone, remember to have fun. That's all I can say.
I was wanting a Water/Storm Corr but the nerf-brigade will probably ensure its eventual shelving
A Water/Fire Blaster is also on the itinerary.
Apparently, I play "City of Shakespeare"
*Arc #95278-Gathering the Four Winds -3 step arc; challenging - 5 Ratings/3 Stars (still working out the kinks)
*Arc #177826-Lights, Camera, Scream! - 3 step arc, camp horror; try out in 1st person POV - 35 Ratings/4 Stars
Water/Psy for sure. Coloring both silver for the already saved name "Silverlode." Coloring looked great on test.
I may try water without coloring it at some point, since it looks so good and realistic. I couldn't think of a good concept for it right now or I would have done that.

Grey Pilgrim: Fire/Fire Tanker (50), Victory
Water/Time Corruptor.
Tried it on the test server and loved it.
Under construction
I was thinking about making a water/thermal corr. Mostly because I don't have any thermal characters right now. Also because I like the idea of setting my teammates on fire and then splashing water all over the enemies.

This sounds really interesting; what colors did you use, if you don't mind sharing? I tried it just now on beta and couldn't get anything I liked the look of.

I'll be making an alternate version of a Bots/Poison mastermind I already have as a Water/Poison corr. Sanguine Sanction learned how to be more forceful with her blood and less dependent on artificial support from outside sources.
Water/Nature!! in about 3 months!! when we get nature!! not sure on Defender or Corruptor, tryin to weigh the pros and cons for each AT.
Storm/Water defenders look tasty, getting Lightning Storm at 32 instead of 38.
Water/Pain Corruptor doesn't seem be a popular choice, but I am looking at some interesting possiblities with the combo.
WB/Martial arts blaster.
I know...
But must be in the works for I24. I need it.
Water/Energy Blaster
Water/Sonic Corruptor
The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.
I was thinking Water/Dark Corruptor to replace my Ice/Dark, but it worries me that no one else is going that route. Is there no synergy or something?

Oodles of control (KD, Fear, loads of -tohit, stun in Howling Twilight) I can see this combo being effective.

I have a pretty interesting concept in mind for a Water/Traps Corr. I haven't seen the animations yet though, so I'm hoping Whirlpool looks alright for a tech concept.
@Rorn ---- Blue Baron ---- Guardian
Im thinking Water/Cold or Water/Storm Corruptor. However Water/Electric Blaster also intrigues we quite a bit. (would be nice if there was extra damage because water is a good conductor of electricity but oh well)
What will you be making ??
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-
