1)Blind: 2accuracy 1 hold 3recharge
2)Heal other/absorb pain need a range in them.
3)Clear mind, i would stick more ranges in it. 3 ranges.
4)Regen Aura: 3 heal/3recharge
5)Drop deceive, air superiority and fly, and pick up combat jumping superjump and acrobatics.
.
Not sure about the slotting of blind. Illu/emp is support, not control. You dont have to spam blind most likely, you could probably even leave it. The same goes for phantom army.
Skip deceive, and spectral wounds.
Absorb Pain - 2 range, 2 heal, 2 recharge. Prolly the best heal you have, just dont spam it. You have heal other for patching up.
Heal other - 1 range - 3 heal - 2 recharge.
CM - 2-3 range 0-1 recharge.
6 slot regeneration auro. Its your own survival, and thats very, very important. Having regen aura on, means you can almost ignore one person attacking you. Slotting 3 recharge - 3 heal.
More slots in spectral terror since it doesnt steal your time, and annoys the [censored] out of your opponents.
Fly is bad - jump is good. Fly is too slow, and has too many counters. You dont want to fight a spines scrapper with fly. If you do go with fly and SS - put 2 runs in SS.
Ah - I just remembered why blind is good. It has inbuild sleep. (pwning the bubblers 
)
A Paragon Defender
though it has only sleep against foes quite close to the one you blind? In my whole career on stage, I think the times I've put a foe to sleep with blind is smaller than 10 times

Very good surviability and I believe youve overslotted with end reds in your build. The build above will never run out of endurance but if you should get close to 0 end.....theres alwats Recovery Aura
Resurrect at lvl 50...well...had to get something.

Being a illusion/empath i would say get resurect asap, also decieve isnt all that great, low hit rate and can easily be avoided... and it doesnt even help to much... spectacal wounds is preety rubish as well...
works a treat on MM's mine for example Bots/FF i got confused FB pushed all the bots out then the bots became confused so they turned around and shot me and each other :S

Your team mates cant see if hes confused, but they can see the bubble drops. Plus forcebubble is back up, at the exact time he eats a bf unlike a hold where it still has to recharge (15 sec recharge).
and what about the 5,8 secs of doing nothing while the animation fires? You cant heal, or buff. Plz try to remember illu/emps are support - not attackers.

can't hold a force field, he has dispersion bubble so you need to spam a few holds.

Target you hit gets sleep + hold. The sleep effect is also a very small AoE. Just try the power against a bubbler...

im a bubbler (ill/ff), been hit with blind plenty before... have yet to be slept by it

must be a lucky sod then.. dunno if psydock used blind against me in last 3vP match though.. if he did then thats another few adds to the "not been slept by blind" list

blind CAN 1 hit hold bubblers..and YES its sleep+hold..NO the sleep isn't always noticable..why?..easy..the hold takes over the sleep..only the cone is PURE sleep...to say it very n00bish...you can't be hold and asleep at the same time in the game:P (you can perma with sleep/hold chain tho (mind troller)

I believe the sleep component is the fact that enemies surrounding the primary target at very close range have a chance to get slept. Blind is still factually a hold, and personally I just suspect that dispersion bubble doesnt offer that much hold protection, thats the answer. Actually, I believe its hold resistance meaning holds will just wear off tad sooner.
stop being n00bs it cant sleep a bubbler! i can sleep him if i hit his friend with blind and if he is standing very near to the bubbler like 1 inch away or something like that. i know all the illusion troller will agree with me.
If any bubblers want to test this out I'd be happy to hop on the test server or meet you in the Defiant arena with my illusionist.

I agree with nightbringer about the sleep in blind.
I don't even think it is AoE, me and imaginary did a 2 vs 2 vs an illusion/empathy, we were both on our kinetics with stacked ID on each other, most instances with blind there was defiantely a sleep, as ID doesn't give res to sleep.
I don't think its a 100% sleep and hold the sleep is random maybe 30/40% of the time.
Imaginary told me to post this:
Blind has a 60% sleep component (which has a very small AoE)
