For DM/SR, you're looking to get your defense to 45%, and then you want recharge and I'd say hit points. And that's the problem - recharge is about the most expensive thing in the game. You can put together something with lower recharge, but spamming Siphon Life as often as possible in your attack chain is part of your high survivability, so it's not going to be optimal with lower recharge. Still, it'd probably be good enough.

DM/SD suffers from the same problem - really expensive to get the recharge, but to add to the complications, it's a lot harder to soft cap.

Katana/Willpower should be fine, and might even be pretty cheap. I think you're mostly looking for defense bonuses there, and recharge isn't nearly as important, so you won't have to kit yourself out with purples to make it work, even if I'd at least recommend them in Gambler's Cut along with the Achilles' Heel.

The team leader told me to not do that again, that is the tanks job. C'mon he was waiting and then just herding to a corner. It was like 2 minutes in between mobs. Yeah enough time for my shield charge and soul drain to recharge...but c'mon. I quit the team soon after and apologized to the team leader and said the style of play just wasn't for me.

Sonics damage looks subpar, but the delay on it and the -res makes it easily outshine archery in cases of taking down targets that can survive an initial attack chains.

It also has a inherent bonus to ACC..that pretty much cancels out elustivity, meaning it never misses. Also the only set besides AR that has a snipe and a stun. To me archery is better then rad.
