I would slot a stealth proc in sprint or superspeed to free up another power choice. Take recall friend earlier, move EM Pulse up to level 32, and then take something like Fallout at 38.

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
Hasten is over slotted. Three Recharge Reductions is all that's needed due to ED a ways back.
That's my two influence.
If you're not power leveling, I'd suggest looking at taking more attack powers early on and then respeccing when you get the biggies at 35/38.
Second, I might suggest taking Jump Kick/SJ/Aerobics. The biggest problem I've found with Rad/Rad defenders is when they get knocked down/held and the debuff toggles drop.
Looking at your set bonuses, I'm not really sure what you're slotting for. The only useful bonuses you have are 40% recharge time.
While trying for perma hasten/AM is commendable, the difference in actual recharge times between having that extra 40% and NOT having that extra 40% are probably not worth the effort.
One thing you may consider slotting for is Defense. While Radiation Infection's -acc is your bread-and-butter defense, some personal defense (especially Melee and AoE defense) stacks well with it. Ranged defense allows you to be defended against mobs outside your debuff cloud.
Obliteration in Irradiate and Soul Drain is great for this (7% defense from slotting the 2 sets).
You could also benefit from slotting Aim with Gaussian's Synchronized Fire-Control (2.5% to all positions, 1.25% to all types)
Hello all!
I'm new to the game, back from a long absence (i.e. July 2004) and this is my current idea for a rad/rad build. It's probably all pretty standard, but feel free to make suggestions on different sets you think may work better. (As a note, health is slotted with Miracle simply because I already have almost a full set).
