Darkir Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 One of the main reasons why you are having trouble with finding a corruptors build for that pairing is that it will be much better on a defender. The defender gets -20% res powers opposed to the corruptors -15% res (for Sonic blast), also all of the cold powers and secondary powers will also use the higher modifiers. So, as much as I love Corruptors, in this case I would highly recommend a cold/Sonic defender over a Sonic/cold corruptor. 14 hours ago, seaborndan said: Having the hardest time finding a Sonic/Cold Corruptor build.

seaborndan Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 Don't the Corruptors do more damage than Defenders? What percentage, or point value, do the Corruptor's sonic power have over Defender's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkir Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) So, the base damage of the powers are at .75 for corruptors and .65 for defenders (with blasters being 1.00, for melee powers, as the base archetype we compare everything to). Then you multiply the sonic -res powers, you can keep up 3-4, so that's going to be .65x1.8=117 for the defender and .75x1.6=120 for the corruptor. Now we add in sleet and heat loss 117x1.6=187.2 and 120x1.54=184.8. So, the defender wins out by a slim margin in this case and they will have better defenses allowing you to softcap easier and get more procs/recharge in your build.

seaborndan Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) Great! Thanks for your help! Problem is that I already have a Sonic/Cold Corruptor at level 43, and really don't want to start the toon over, and was hoping to see what someone with more knowledge in slotting would do with the sets. So, I'll look over the Defender builds and see what compares. Thanks again! Edited November 24, 2019 by seaborndan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
