Calling the Wolf, well ive never been a fan of a scrapper with taunt powers so I defo wont be taking this. Its just a personal pref but I can see its uses in arena matchs to keep agro off your partner etc....
[/ QUOTE ]
I took Calling the Wolf for concept recently on my Kat/Regen... and I have to say that I've been absolutely loving it. The animation is just amazing, and it comes out very quickly, and unlike the tanker taunts recharges very quickly too. Primarily I'm using it to add to team aggro control (as a Katana/Regen with DA, DP and IH I can really take a beating and keep going), but it's also superb for single-target pulling... seems to pull very cleanly, although admittedly I'm very practiced in pulls. It's just nice to have something free and effective that I can do at range.
Just thought I'd chime in with that... like many of the less popular powers, scrapper taunts are more useful than they may at first appear.

Right, this is literally a scraped-together build info with the powers picked as per Respec with no attention to how I currently have things!

This is my current build, which I am painstakingly slotting up with IOs and Hamis... it's dull, thankless and horrendously expensive. It's also more focussed towards the Statesman TF because I tried it with my old Kat/SR/Body Mastery build and could not 'control' groups as I usually can in non-TF PvE. Also the extra hold with Petrifying Gaze allows me to slot the IO set bonus 'reduce fear duration' which those who've done the TF will understand!
Obviously use your commong sense when it comes to power picking but that's it. As far as slotting goes, forget it - I'm rubbish at that!

I did from 1-50 and didn't have a self heal. Nor did I have Divine Avalanche, and I never had very many problems, and I wasn't on heroic very much at all. Hardly even touched it.
so no.. you soooooo don't!!!!
It's a matter of choice 
I find aid self a great help.. especially if you solo or in a poor pug with no damage mitigation from the team.
3 slotted health and 2 slotted interrupt allows me to fire it off no problems in a middle of a fight. just a brief pause standing still and a longer one where you cant hit.

No, you don´t unless you want to PvP. Wasn´t needed before I9 and less needed after I9 with the +regen bonuses available.

I find out what setting actually gives me the best xp/time and go with that for 5 levels before checking again when not on a story content toon and if on a story content toon I'll get to 45 and pretty much just stay on invincible as outlevelling arcs is impossible.

simply put... "no" I don't believe you can have Elude on perma, unless you have outside help with.

60 Seconds downtime with IOs. So you can use it 1 minute after when it drops. Which is pretty fast.

I found aid self more necessary for pve than for pvp tho. Without it I would have been on perma debt cap all the way to 50
