I recently began working on a Sonic/Poison Corruptor to tackle AV hunting and maybe some Giant Monster hunting after I've gotten the hang of it. I was talking to someone on a team earlier today and they mentioned that the Defender would have been the better choice for the higher debuff values and that the Sonic/Poison Corruptor I made won't be awful, but it won't be able to compete with the Defender version.
I know that Defenders have higher buff and debuff modifiers, but is it really that noticeable? I thought a Corruptor with Scourge would do more damage overall, hence my pick. It was also picked for the fact that my character is more of a Vigilante anyway and I can't see Defenders as anything but good two shoes.
Anyway, what are some of your thoughts? If I want to be able to solo AVs and GMs should I reroll now before tagging 50 and working on Incarnates?
