Sonic/Cold/Soul

[WitchofDread]

After much deliberation I settled on a Sonic/Cold/Soul - though need to test on BETA server to see if i enjoy the combo, but in theory its ok.

 

33.23% s/l Def, 46.4% r, 75% s/l Res.

 

The global rech is a problem at the moment:

 

26.9s off Hasten being perma

3.84s off Benumb

5.56s for Sleet

Heatloss is at 100.9s overall - Mids isnt showing me the duration length but im pretty sure it was 90s?

 

Agility Radial solves these issues but guts a decent amount of potential dmg from the procs. I don't really want to have to take ageless as i probably wont need it with Heat Loss and this build would probably benefit more from Clarion or Rebirth. 

 

As a side note, does Cold benefit from Power Boost? If not its better to probably change to Dark instead of Soul.

That build is for an ice/cold corruptor.

[hemij]

If you're going Sonic/Cold, presumably you're targeting buffs and debuffs.

 

Can I ask why a Corruptor over Defender then?

Ah, thanks, updated.

     Any power which takes Damage Resistance enhancement, such as the shields, cannot be power boosted.   Or anything which is marked as "ignores enhancements or other boosts".   So most of Benumb, Ice and Glacial Shield, Sleet, Arctic Fog and much of Heat Loss definitely don't.  Frostwork does plus most of Infrigidate and Snow Storm also benefit.  But yes its effects overall aren't fantastic comparatively for Cold near as I can see.  That said my Cold/Ice had PBU and used it in particular against high defense targets (it would send my To Hit through the roof) as it helped ensure he landed hits against such targets ((and provides a not insignificant boost to damage (+80%) as well --> the Build Up portion of PBU 🙂)).

     Yes Heat Loss should negate any need for Incarnate boost to recovery and the recovery portion lasts 90 seconds so as long as you can't burn your end bar to zero in the cool down portion further recovery buff is unnecessary.  Most of the rest of the debuffs (slow, resistance, recharge, etc.) last 30 seconds.
