Nice looking build.
Few things...
With the kind of recharge you have on the build, you could drop Scorch and just go with Inc->GFS->Cre->FS. Could use those slots to slot up tough with 5 pieces Aiges for the AOE defense put in a set of Oblitiration on FSC to pick up the melee defense you lost from ToD. Then you could free up a slot from health and just leave it with 3 miracle (Unique, health and health/end) + a regular health IO. Could swap out the lotg on PF for a kismet unique, that little bit of recharge does nothing for you. Now you have a power pick and 2 free slots to play with. I would personally pick CP to help with the endurance when you need to, but those 2 slots well I have no clue where to put those... 
Thanks Iggy, that was precisely the kind of input I wanted. I've been tinkering back and forth with this and that helped to put a couple trade-offs in perspective.
I've reworked it without the LotG's and this is what I came up with. 25% global recharge is pretty good considering the rule of 5 for the 5% set bonuses. Thanks.

Panacea when six slotted gives you 3.13% of Melee defense and I never took Fire Sword, I don't like the way it looks, silly looking scimitar. I thought I did take Conserve Power???

Dark/Shield Build Thread
I don't have access to mids right now. but just a quick note, you are gonna need GFS to come back at 5.14 to run Inc-GFS-Cre-FS if I'm not mistakin.
Hrrm, yeah that will necessitate some +Rech LotG's. Not a problem, just something else to plan for. Thanks.
Not to beat a dead horse (or at least an asthmatic one wheezing it's last breath), but I've been tinkering on a final build plan for the Fire/Shield Scrapper I've been developing recently. He's up to level 24 now and starting to feel more "Scrapperish" with roughly 25% positional Defense. Looking forward into the late-game build, I find myself wondering if both Scorch and Fire Sword will be needed once Incinerate and GFS are in the mix... I hadn't planned on slotting in the LotG +7.5% Recharges until later on, so with a less global recharge... Dunno if all 5 single target attacks are really needed. Anyway, I'm hoping some with some personal experience with the set(s) can give some semi-sage advice on their impressions. Here goes.
