On a side note, I'm also leveling 3 other toons now that I've hit 50, a Spines/Fire Scrapper, a DM/Shield Scrapper, DM/Regen Scrapper, and a Archery/Energy Blaster.
Thus far, I'm really loving the DM/Shield (only lvl 14). Would it perhaps be better to just use the influence on one of those, as it may serve to be a better primary?
(Note that I enjoy all of them.)
It all depends on what you want to do. If you want to be a big bad AV killer save the money up for the Dm/SD. If you just want to run solo and have fun with a mish a good build in all would be the best way to go.

I'd love to have an AV killer eventually, but I'm sure that's a ways off. Mostly I'm just looking for some advice on my build for this character, which is normally run solo or in groups with the SG, as I'm sure it's nowhere near optimum, heh. :P
wp can be an av killer with the right slotting. yo ucan get awfully close to the soft cap to smash/lethal, and high 30's to everything else defense wise. you have minimal resistance to debuff resistance though so anything that debuffs defense would be a problem in large quantities or as an av.
my sm/wp is pretty tough thanks mostly to fault. if she starts taking a lot of dmg from a huge spawn (and the spawn isnt immune to the stun or the knock down) then i just hit fault and they are all staggering about while i'm regenerating up to 141 hp/s. it's usually enough time for me to pop one or two mobs on my brute before they've recovered and to regen a healthy amount of hp.
sarrate has a wp/fire tanker. she'd be the one to talk to about a fire/wp scrapper imo.
Thanks for the input JupiterMoon. Sorry, I was away for awhile without internet access. Any further suggestions anyone?
Well, I just hit lvl 50 on my Fire/WP scrapper, the first time I've done this. I know my slotting and build is probably a whole lot less than ideal, so I was hoping for some input! Bear in mind, I don't have alot of influence [ 65mil currently] , as I'm pretty new to the game (returning player).
I end up soloing alot, as I play at work, so I'd like to be able to deal out plenty of damage, and take it well enough to solo difficult stuff. Anyways, thanks for any input!
This is exactly what I have currently.
