Pistols and Pain Dom... Corruptor or Defender?

[shaggy]

Which do you think would be better? Is it worth getting Share Pain just for the damage buff?

[Psyonico]

I generally skip Absorb Pain/Share Pain because of the -heal in the powers.

 

As for AT... I can't really say, it depends on your playstyle and how early you want pain's "good" powers.

Not enough (recent) experience with Share Pain but would agree with Psyonico without further testing.  The heal resistance in particular would be especially problematic.  My Empaths definitely avoid Absorb Pain for that reason.  The damage boost is slightly less than Defender solo bonus.
