Fleshing out the Concept of Darkness 

As I evolve the concept for my new solo/duoing/PvP build (yes, it’s taking long, but I want to make it good, conceptwise and mecanic wise) I have narrowed it down to an idea, DARK. I did not place this in one of the specific forums because I don’t have the concept filled out.

What do I mean? You know, fear of the dark, darkness itself coming to life, blah,blah, blah. So basically this is the main concept. It’s an evolution of my previous stalker Garra Negra (in triumph). I know I want a primary and secondary Dark, and I know I want as a travel power Teleport (the whole stepping into and out of shadows thing). I know he will be a mutant, it goes with the whole black/dark gray/indigo Nightcrawler skin thing. I know that I am preping him to reach level 15-20 to start PvPing him. With that in mind, I do not have to plan a lvl 50 long run plan, just an evective medium/low level plan.

The problem is what archetype?

I have 3 routes I could go, although the first 2 are similar.
1)Brute. I could go head on into the fray, and maybe even get the concealment set to support the concept.
2)Stalker. I could complete the “dark slayer” motife. If I port an enemy, can I still do assasin’s strike on them?
3)Corrupter. Here I could complete the “master of darkness” thing.

I'd say try out the Corruptor...the D/D is very good there. I have a lvl 33 that I practically Solo'd the entire way. The -Acc helps out against Bosses and such, Twilight Grasp keeps you in the fight long enough to take them down(properly slotted), Howling Twilight is one of the best debuffers in the game, can't go wrong with that (it's more than just a group Rez).

I've run a Dark/EA Brute...the offense is ok, thus far, can't talk too much to the DA piece though.
Haven't tried anything Dark with a Stalker, so i'm of no help there.

I'd say, go against the grain and do a Corruptor, you won't be dissatisified...oh, you even get your Snipe real early to boot :)
