Wow, I've waited three days and no comments? I really would appreciate some feedback on my build, to know if it is worth it or not 
Red on Red hurts my eyes.
I'm checking it in Mids now.
Looks good, except you took Serum awfully late. Its a good power, you should get it earlier.

I just switched a few things around, dropped Arm Lash and picked up Assault in its place. I put Serum a bit earlier, only thing is you only have 2 slots in the Striker, if it matters.
If its concept, go with yours and ignore mine. Concept>>>All
Maybe someone else who is more Mids orientated will show up and improve yours or mine. 
Thanks for the response! Slotting serum more does sound like a good suggestion, and I'm not so worried about having the Mu Striker slotted out. Just having pet with a low recharge is fine with me.
Hi all,
here is my current Crab Build (just got to lvl 43 and havnt filled in my newest slots yet).
I find that with this toon as is I can take on a CIM mish with purple bosses without dieing (1 at a time of course) :P.
I dont have any Melee atacks as I used my 12 month VET reward power for Sands of Mu, but even then I rarely use it.
If I have some mobs hitting me in melee I normally use my Frag Grenade to KB or recently the Spirit Shark Patron attack.
Obviously I am part way through getting IO sets but as it is my attack chain is rarely ever with a delay between attacks.
The actual level I took the slots is not 100% correct as I cant remember what slots I took at what levels.

Hi, this is my first attempt at an actual build plan for my crab (which is currently lvl 24). This build is mostly based off of Lobster's Happy Medium build from the guide, which I then tailored to my preferences.
Please critique and offer advice on ways to improve it, any advice is appreciated because right now I have no clue if this build is any good or not. Thanks
(btw, the Mu patron is a concept choice but if it has a significant impact, I am willing to switch)
