    People don't hate on Empathy because its a great set.

    People hate on healers because its a playstyle overrated by idiots that doesn't utilize the strengths of Empathy.

    From the sound of it, Red Pirate Boggarts was teaming with a good Emp, not a healer.

    While Scorpion Shield is pretty awesome, I do think its fun that Corrs now get access to the un-nerfed Defender Soul Drain :3
  4. Fire/Traps is also great.

    But trust me, a MM and Defender won't do DM justice like a Fire/ Corr will
  5. As far as I know, yes it's the only power that doubleScourges.

    If you've not made a Fire/ Corr, you don't know the power of Scourge

    Make a Fire/Dark.

    Both.

    Unlike say, Irradiate, it checks for Scourge on each tick rather than at the initial cast so it makes better use of Scourge as you say.

    -40.00% run speed for 15.50s on target Ignores buffs and enhancements
    -40.00% strength to jump height for 15.50s on target Ignores buffs and enhancements
    -40.00% jump speed for 15.50s on target
    -3.50 max run speed for 15.50s on target Ignores buffs and enhancements
    76 Ticks of 3.00 fire damage over 15.00s on target
    76 Ticks of 6.00 fire damage over 15.00s on target 2.5% chance per every percentage point targets health is below 50%

    -30.00% fly speed for 15.50s on target Ignores buffs and enhancements

    Copy-pasted from power details. Bolded for emphasis, as you can see the normal damage is 3 per tick, Scourge damage is 6 per tick.

    RoF is beastly on Corrs, yo.
  7. TY Ash and Nator, I'm really quite happy with the look He really needs a cape though, heh.

    Awesome Demo, I approve both of the AT and the look
  8. Awesome thread idea Ash

    Here's my lowbie KM/SD Scrapper Ectenic being all broody and such:



    And two combat shots:



    and

    BAM



    I actually really like KM so far. Big fan of the movements and how customizable it is.

    Two ideas behind this character. First, not Kinetic Melee so much as Telekinetic/Psionic melee

    Secondly, KM/SD gon' be shitpowerful when IOd right :3

    Edit: naww screw yo' H-scroll I'm not cropping those

    This is silly, people shouldn't worry about stuff like this. I'm just another player and it's not like I'm gonna lambast someone in my guides or whatever.

    Besides, I've been therming like pure **** recently, I'm so out of practice >.<
  10. Yup, don't need anything other than SOs to make this combo work. RoF needs time to do its damage, Tar Patch keeps them in the area for the duration. The -res so it does even more damage is the other part of the equation.

    Something I'm surprised no one has mentioned:

    RoF does double Scourge damage. Supplement RoF with your other AoEs as Demobot said to get the enemies into Scourge-range and you'll see why RoF is so fantastic.

    Corruptor LRSF!

    1. Llewthor - (fire/dark)
    2. Horus - (sonic/cold)
    3. Trev - (rad/kin)
    4. Kahlan - (something awesome)
    5. Silas - (rad/therm)
    6. Fiery-Enforcer (Kev) - (see above)
    7. TBA
    8. TBA

    No one else bring a Therm or I shall scweam and I shall scweam until I am blue in the face

    Also hooray for finally being able to join one of your all-Corr TFs Trev
  12. Ah, well then, with the exception of AVs as Dechs mentioned, yes indeed you can
  13. Layered defenses is a good way to go. Just bear in mind -tohit only works as effective defense once its applied to the enemies.

    On a TF unless you always cornerpull with DN you'll likely still have to eat a volley or two depending on the circumstances. It's not a huge concern given how absolutely massive Fearsome Stare is, but do bear in mind that -tohit is more finicky than straight +def.
  14. Blasters getting a tier3 blast and Dark Oblit with their Dark Blast would be so unfair.

    Makes, you know, sense. I'd still sulk though

    *sigh* I haven't seen much of the 'defender handshake' for quite a while. I have been on way too many teams where another def/troller/cor completely ignores that I'm mezzed or getting pounded, even though I'm hollering in teamspeak. They're usually too busy chatting with the tank to notice.
    Cry, this. I was Therming on a team with 2 other Thermals running a LGTF.

    I was the only one bothering to give out Thaw :l I used half a tray of BFs. T'was a sad day for Silas
  16. Haha I wasn't sure, was mostly just because I've been waiting for an excuse to post that since forever

    I'd put Controllers at equal or just second place for best AT, depending on the sets.

    That's wicked.
    It's based on your enhanced/buffed damage, yes. Which is why this change is pure sex for Brutes :3

    SS/Fire and Fire/Kin just got a whole lot nastier.

    Right.
  22. Awesome man, congrats

    Listening to the running commentary in NV was funny, heh.
