Unless you're going for PvP I really wouldn't bother with confront... The healing stuff isn't that important either - just find a good empath 
You should definitely get focus earlier on too, the most awesome claws power IMO...
i have had taunt from lvl 12 its great to use when a foe in pve is about to knock off a team mate as for the self heal business my playstyle needs it when i solo saves on downtime, i remember getting follow up about the lvl i have used it in my list purely because i seem to remember hating it horribly when i missed but yeah focus could go there
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
You don't really need endred in PB or SS.

so no one think 3 slotting my passives is a bad idea? or 5 slotting hasten? or leaving out follow up and going for focussed accuracy?

in light of looking at other builds i have modified mine to this the end cost on practice brawler is twice as much as some of my attacks almost so ill keep it and i like to fight with superspeed on so ill keep that too "for now" i still would like to know if slotting the passives 3 slots is actually worth it as they offer very little compared to adding an extra one to my toggles will they add resistance as my health drops i dont know and doubt

All my passives are 3-slotted. Just took them later in the game (Agile only at SL38). Every little bit of DEF helps!

Basically this is an update post to this as it somehow made it into the guide section (dont mind if its extracted TBH) as i never intended it to be in the guide section at all.
Over a year later i have a different build basically going in what a scrapper is all about (pve) and thats doing damage. So the attacks came first but with the slotting that i be best with at different levels due to what i'd run into and i picked powers of low slotting in order to apply more slots into attack early on. Because i levelled to 50 before defense scaleability with just 4 debt badges i can safely say i have levelled with worse survivability.

You could do with FA from body mastery, IT HELPS.
Confront is useful but in no way needed.
Not an expert on slots so I'll leave that to the pros.
Maybe some enduance reductions in your toggles?
A travel power pool may not seem neccesary but in some cases it can be.
That's ll I can figure out form my angle, but I'm not an expert it's just my opinion.

I was looking for advice on my build over a year ago (read whole post) it got put in guide section (not by me) i look at it now and go i have moved on to what i am happy with and so i updated it but only because it entered guide section. I never intended it to be in the guide section and would like it extracted as said.
Foc acc would give me +per i already have and +acc i'd never need.

i'm not totally sure if i have overdone the slots anywhere (well maybe dodge and agile) but this is a build that suits my playstyle well, but however i am always open to advice on slotting and with my scrapper being my worst character i definately need advice here and there from more experienced players.
