smnolimits43 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I'm looking to pair /Poison with something. This will be my first Corruptor. What primary would you choose, and why ?? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyonico Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Water/poison could be a good combo. I've got the defender version. Water brings with it a self heal and whirlpool which I believe works well with scourge. 3 What this team needs is more Defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twozerofoxtrot Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Dark. Good coloring with greens can make it look like poison blasts. And Dark Blast is pretty nice on Supports. Alternatively, Water. Same rationale on theming but personally the hyrdromancy/water bending animations of the set make it B+ at best for style. Maybe A+ for effects though.

Uun Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I wouldn't recommend Dark. Dark is all cones while Poison wants to be up close in melee range. In addition to Water, Radiation would work well. 1 Uuniverse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BazookaTwo Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I don't know why everyone hates cones. But I would say ice/poison for the fast dpa and all the slows you can stack into attacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing wrong with cones, but they're tricky to use with Poison (I've actually got a Poison/Sonic defender). Venomous Gas (the T9) is a PBAoE and works best if you're in melee range. Cone attacks require you to jump back 20-30 feet. AoE attacks don't. 2 1 Uuniverse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for an explanation of the most basic aspect of the game. Been playing since live in '04. I get it, jumping is hard. Just like aiming, which requires so much...oh wait. You don't have to aim you just hit the tab key. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnifax Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 (edited) Uun is bang on here. The issue isn't just "cones" but that Nightfall is the most ridiculously narrow, long going. You want to be a good ways back with it So you miss out on that lovely extra damage from the PBAoE -resist for almost all of your Cone AoEs lowering your AoE damage overall. The cones just don't play nicely with Poisons Tier 9 at all regardless of how good you are at moving about. You'll always move out of it's debuff range. Radiation blast might be a better fit. That come is crap anyway and Rad feels "poisony" too, although I prefer water.

SeraphimKensai Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Seconding radiation blast. But fire blast works pretty well too, otherwise I really like elec blast too and that adds another debuff type to the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
