Ok I'm sure you guys are asked alot about this but I have 2 different builds I have planned for both PB now I've always wanted to take the Concealment pool but never really found a way to slot into my Fire/rad Contoller atm both my Kheldians are LvL 6 both of which with Nova forms but atm I more enjoy the Warshade than I do my Peacebringer because I find the WS has cooler animations and more controller style since thats my prefered role... but I also like the PB however since theres quite a few PB's out there especially in my SG (Paragon Knights Union) mainly because you can rezz without an target etc.. any way here are my 2 planned builds for both toons (these builds are only power pickers enhancements will come later)....

30) Shining Shield
32) Dawn Strike
35) Restore Essence
38) Photon Seekers
41) Thermal Shield
44) Light Form
47) Reform Essence
49) Quantum Shield

and for my Warshade:
01) Ebon Eye
01) Absorption
02) Gravimetric Snare
04) Orbiting Death
06) Dark Nova
08) Grant Invisibility
10) Swift
12) Hurdle

with the warshade why not just take its stealth power it has already, cloak of darkness is it? yeah think thats the one.

Yeah, I'm prett sure it's not as good as stealth and I believe the text says it won't stack. However, it's good enough for most stuff and when I've been messing about with it there definately seemed to be some stacking with the phasing power.

oh yeah! kheldans dont have access to the Flight or Teleport power pools, so a pb with recall friend is a no go.

edit: id also recommend extracted essence at 32 for your ws and six slot it asap, its an awesome power and will help you out alot.

edit 2!: id also advise you take light form at 38 as when slotted properly it gives you 3 minutes of 85% resistance to most things and enhanced endurance recovery, you can also use any of your human powers whilst in this form, including your heals

With the WS, you can pretty much create what suits your play - if its workable for you.

However - a couple of bits and pieces that I spotted -

Didn't see any Sunless Mire anywhere (I'm writing this late so I might have overlooked it) but its a great power that boosts your dmg output - similar to the Dark Melle scrapper build up power

The order of Quasar, Stygian Return and Extracted Essence/Dark Extraction?

Extracted essence is the WS pet - and they are pretty cool (Its possible to have more than one out at a time with the right slotting) and they can take some of the aggro you will get. I took them as early as possible (lvl 32 I think) and slotted them up asap.

Went Quasar after that at lvl 35

Stygian return has its uses, but its not my sort of thing (Although its in my build later on - 40s) after I got eclipse at 38

Apart from that - theres really nothing for me to add - you will be the best judge of what works - and I think you wouldn't be a proper Warshade unless you underwent a couple of respecs (at least) to change things that didn't work out the way you expected them to

As a three-form, power picks and slotting even now with ED will always be tricky and if you get a great build first time - I salute you - you'd deserve a medal

Editark Extraction - can't remember what that is or confused with Extracted Essence (its late that my excuse)

Yeah and what a pain in the neck that is. A silly decision in my opinion. Something that would really be useful to a PB is the ability to recall teammates. The ability to fly to a target and tp the rest in at low levsls is a massive time/life saver. Easpecially in places like hollows whare you're very likely to have to run past huge mobs of trolls and CoT twice your level.
