Re: [CORRUPTOR] What are the best powers for a corruptor? 

i have a Fire/Rad that seems to do a lot of damage and is a good team player. i can do direct for a lot of dam. and i can do AoE for a huge area but not alot of Dam. ( i use this to pick off what the team has already put a hurtin on) then i can heal and buff with the Rad powerset. But i only picked those powers to fit my character (Crimson Guardian Lee on Virtue). IMO it really comes down to how you want to play, if youre jus' want to play as power gamer then im sure there are certain sets that can be used to do a lot without to much effort, but myself i lioke playing to character/comic book rules...

Re: [CORRUPTOR] What are the best powers for a corruptor? 

I have to agree that Fire/Thermal is a really great skill. I used one in beta and it was quite good. The ability to use char and stop one enemy dead in his tracks was a nice feature.

I also like the Ice powers. Anything that has a chance to slow enemies is always nice.

Re: [CORRUPTOR] What are the best powers for a corruptor? 

I would go for kinetics. I think it is the best stalker secondary there is, mainly from CoH experience. I LOVE IT! The buffs are brilliant, and it heals as well. It has a built in travel power, it can give endurance and a lot of its powers debuff the enemy too. I also hear the last power, Fulcrum Shift, is excellent. I havent experienced it myself though.

*NOTE - this post is based on the assumption that the kinetics set has stayed the same as the CoH equivelant. If it isn't, ignore the post!*

me too... and with Dark Blast how can you really argue with having an aoe hold, an aoe disorrient, and a to hit based self heal in your primary?

Re: [CORRUPTOR] What are the best powers for a corruptor? 

Well i like my Rad/Kinetic ( Kinda a multipurpose fighter )

good ranged Damage, heal powers, and good meele ( if there not dead from my ranged shots, but they usally are,)

the heal is a self/group heal so all is good there if i join a team. Healer ranged fighter

granted im only lvl 16 ATM but i have done every mission solo. with no problems.

i tried other combos, but as a solo player having all three abilities really helps me survive.

I really like the energy/ part.. It puts out some real nice damage and has an added bonus of knocking someone back.. which in it self is a good deffense move.

Re: [CORRUPTOR] What are the best powers for a corruptor? 

I made a Dark/Dark and sruprisingly (if you look at my COH toons) I'm not crazy about it. I have been able to solo but not well.


I recently made an Energy/Thermal and I like it better. The knockback is fun and the thermal is appreciated in groups. Its a nice combination of heal/protect. Only thing is sheilding can take some time in a large group and i often fall behind (not used to it).

So far i like this one best, but only 13 so time will tell.

Re: [CORRUPTOR] What are the best powers for a corruptor? 

Not really sure there is a "Best" power.

There are awsome combos.

I have a Fire/Rad but I duo with a Dark/Robotic MM. So my build fits our play style nice like. I don't play solo very often but when I do it's usually melee so I'm not sure about soloing Corruptor powers.



See you on Justice w/o Justice!

the kinetics power pool is not in the stalker power choices.
it does have 2 built in travel powers but one you have to have a target to steal power from the other is inirtial (sorry for the spelling) reduction (super jump). i say this from experience kinetics is decent but the only heal you get is a mob aoe and it is under powered if it is the same from CoH. the real powers to get are the endurance, fulcrum shift, and one of the travel powers.

Re: [CORRUPTOR] What are the best powers for a corruptor? 

a nice combination that I had fun playing around with is Energy/Kinetics. This basically turns you into a high powered battery with more power than you would know what to do with.

You increase the already strong energy damage output (without the need for inspirations). You can be in the mix of bad guys and heal yourself while dealing damage at the same time.

It does provide it's own mode transportation 2fold (those poor poor poor low level mobs never stood a chance) and you'll need a victim for it to work though. But this will free you up of a couple of slots for other powers or pool sets you may have not selected prior.

I've always been fond of the Energy set (high damage output, plus knockback = staying alive a little longer in a fight). Now, couple that with your own greens and reds, you become just.....UBER!

RE: [CORRUPTOR] What are the best powers for a corruptor? 

The best i have seen/played is Sonic/Thermal. Sonic's secondary effects of lowering damage resistance is great and they have quite a bit of ranged attacks. Thermal is the best healing/buff set in CoV. I think 2 or 3 heals and 2 shields plus a couple of buffs make this player a serious asset to any team. Only problem is not to much defense for him/her self.
