For PvE tanking this is brief build I'd make! Hope this helps! You may wanna tweak about with the levels at which certain powers are taken, but I'll stress this is a quick build just to give you some ideas.

I love the name, you must of either saved it or its been freed up because I wanted it!

For an SO build and a first go I really like it. Your not over-slotting toggles. 2 endreds in Wet Ice for example is a easy mistake that if anyone reads the figures on should instantly come to understand. With EA + Stamina its easily possible to go around with toggles unslotted for endurance. Toggle slotting for end means a faster recovery rate but the 2nd endred doesn't do as much as the very first.

If you use Barrage a lot that uses up a lot of endurance over time. I'd of end slotted that to prevent the endurance from getting low in the first place so decreasing its eps could be worth it. Constantly spammed, barrage is worse eps than most your toggles put together but better dps than other ST attacks spammed. You won't spam it but keeping the attack chain as low on end is nice and best done through this power as its already a fast recharger.

Level 6: Chilling Embrace -- EndRdx(A), Taunt(7), Taunt(7), Taunt(13)

I got 1 end 1 taunt and 1 slow. Never needed more slots.

Level 10: Taunt -- Taunt(A), Taunt(11), Taunt(11)

This is a too taste thing. 3 slots as a minimum is good to spare. At lvl 10 /em Salute.

Level 32: Hibernate -- RechRdx(A), RechRdx(34), RechRdx(34), Heal(34), EndMod(46)

I estimate your actual slotting will differ.

Level 35: Icicles -- EndRdx(A), EndRdx(36), EndRdx(36), Acc(37), Dmg(39)

Damage is good. 2 end 3 acc 2 dam is good to start till foc acc. I almost 3rd end nothing unless its eps is about double what this one is. I wish i took this at 12, on 10 foes at a time, over time, its great damage.

Level 41: Focused Accuracy -- EndRdx(A), EndRdx(42), EndRdx(42), ToHit(43), ToHit(43), ToHit(43)

This is where 1 acc in everything is fine PVE. On SOs this does get 3 end slots. Its about +per or not missing. I have it on my /SS, the last possible melee set to need foc acc but I really hate missing.

Level 44: Energy Transfer -- Acc(A), EndRdx(45), Dmg(45), Dmg(45), Dmg(46)
Level 47: Total Focus -- Acc(A), EndRdx(48), Dmg(48), Dmg(48), Dmg(50)

Both late for me and no recharge. I like to take out the key problem enemies asap. I know some builds are tight but great gauntlets of good area come off of these. Energy is as slow as hell to level without these so definately more Damage in Icicles when no one is on.
