You are not replying to what DJSamhein said.
He said that the game is balanced by the developers around 300 corruption (source).
You are saying that some players look for more powerful builds.
Your statement in no way disproves that he said. The fact some players look for more powerful builds does not change the fact that the developers balance the game around 300 corruption.
In fact, if the developers continue to balance the game around 300 corruption even while some (a few? We don’t know how many) players look for higher corruption builds, it’s likely a sign that those players are not significant enough to the developers. Which means they’re probably a vocal minority.
