And so on. Comments?
I find corruption to be very useful, since it does a considerable amount of damage, in addition to damage over several rounds. Unlike Searing Spray, it's an AoE instead of a cone, so it has much better targeting. It's also nifty because most NPCs are not immune to it.

This would be much more useful for the Blademaster who isn't likely pumping Dex.
That ability also gives a backstab bonus, which is pretty much necessary for the shadowwalker to do considerable melee damage.
