Tip: Either 4 slot Deflection with LoTG or add a ribo/resist IO... stick the steadfast def IO in OWtS (it works even if exemplared below the power's level).
Tip: Remove the LotG def IO from CJ (which I can only assume you're sticking there for the regen bonus, and give the slot to Health. Remove the Numina Heal/End IO from health and stick a Miracle +recovery and Miracle +heal in your now two free slots. Use Numina heal, heal/end, heal/rech IO's in true grit. You gain more health this way. More health = more regen.
Pointed fact 1: With little active defense slotting and no grant cover, your defense debuff resistance has a lot of room for improvement.

One slot has been left open for the PvP +3% defense IO....
Can anyone make any suggestions on improving this build?

Find another 3% by the time you try to buy that IO there won't be any for sale.

Luckily enough I managed to snag one before the PvP drop change. It's in my /SR Brute now, but it won't be too hard to transfer it.
This is when they were going for a "mere" 500-700 mil.

That's certainly an interesting place for it.

Thanks for the advice. I'm going to shuffle some slots from health in Active defense, and put 2 more HOs in it (as well as following your suggestions).

Optimally, you want 3 membranes in AD.
The goal of the build is to get as a high a recharge as possible (enough so that force feedback procs from footstomp will get Hasten near perma) and also get soft-capped defense to melee and ranged, and near soft capped defense to AoE. One slot has been left open for the PvP +3% defense IO.
My totals are:
45.6% to melee
48.6% to ranged
44.8% to AoE
158% recharge with Hasten, (hasten is 5.8 seconds from perma, which should be enough for the proc to make it perma)
