eb/ff critique pls

[Magnificus]

I have never asked for critique before, cause I usually steal good builds or frankenstein a couple together and call it good. Here however i would like some suggestions

- all of the aoe aside from nova sucks so i did not take energy torrent or explosive strike even though i like the torrent at least

- no imdividual bubbles. personal defense and damage capability is prioritzed

- yes a six slotted evasive maneuvers. i like to move fast, this effects both fly and hover and also has another place for lotg. i dont have to slot for fly speed in the other fly powers. all of that said i could lose 2 or 4 of those slots for a worthy cause

- power push repulsion field and force bomb. yeah no damage but they are great oh shit powers. if one exists i work to defend the second line.

 

i would appreciate any suggestions

What are you trying to do here?  How do you envision your role on a team?  You've taken no shields to protect your team with and have clearly stated you care more about yourself than them - so why bother making a Corruptor to begin with?  You've taken no AOEs, so you just want to stand in the back and single target damage some foes at range and maybe knock them back?  

 

If that is all you want to do and you only took FF for the +Def for yourself... then switch to a Blaster - you can get the same personal +def/survivability and then do more damage as you sit in the back picking off foes - and your team won't hate you for not giving them shields.  

 

Or, you could make a Sentinel and have your mez protection and armor and still shoot things doing good damage.  

 

Just the description of your build alone tells me you don't really want to play a Corruptor.

i have the aoe shield. i have maneuvers. i have the aoe buff/debuff. and as i said the eb aoe's suck.

role on a team? i only ever team on tf's or some 40+. i hate soloing but that's what there is.

well whatever thanks for the input i guess.

It's fine if you want to just single target attack and only focus on +Def for yourself.  I'm just saying, you should look at another AT instead of a Corruptor for your playstyle and what you want to do.  With a Blaster, you can get the same survivability and do more damage.   With the Sentinel, you'll have an easier time with survivability and mez protection and still do good damage.  

 

Building a gimped Corruptor build like this only makes your life harder and your teammates' lives harder when you decide to team.  I say "gimped" because when you do team, people will be upset / disappointed / ticked off that you skipped the 2 main shield powers that gives them the most defense over those big bubbles and maneuvers.  People see a bubble Corruptor (or Defender) on their team and they expect they'll get shields.  And when they don't, it's a let down and some people will be vocal about it, kick you from team, or etc.  

 

I'm just suggesting to save yourself some grief and aggravation on 2 fronts:  1) By switching to an AT that suits your playstyle better, you will potentially do more damage and have an easier time getting the defenses you want.  ...and 2), you won't potentially piss off any teammates you might have and have to deal with whatever gripes they may spout.  

 

Otherwise, good luck!

The build as is would be fine for X1 to maybe X4 solo content. If you hate soloing, I'm not sure of the point here! It sounds like you won't like this character. To solo X8 content, you'll want aoes other than your Nuke and Force Bomb or it will be painfully slow. Energy Torrent is actually pretty good, and Explosive Blast is still a valuable addition to your aoe rotation, even if it isn't putting out as much damage as other aoes.

 

If you just want the theme of big bubbles + blasts, you have achieved it. To @Frozen Burn's point, you just aren't really taking advantage of what either set can do.

 

It's worth noting that you aren't softcapped to anything unless Power Build up is active, and it will only be active for 12 seconds on a relatively long cooldown. The real reason to take PBU is to use it before casting ally shields, as they retain the buffed values even after PBU wears off.
