Pretty decent guide. I have a 31 merc/TA that I have been playing over the last week or so, mostly in sirens.
Its beastly. Glue is probably the ultimate soft-immob, totally shutting down any hero team without slow res. Right now im sitting at around 250 rep or so, though srsly, lol rep.
Though there are a few things I disagree with in your guide. Phase is amazing, I would take it as soon as possible. Stealth + stealth IO lets you sneak around, and grant invis lets your pets go around without drawing NPC aggro.
Here is my planned build
