I can't agree with you more.
Hm, now that I have time I had a closer look at the build. Mostly the enhancement part.
With tactics I suppose you meant 3x cyto HOs? 
And power build up, with just 1 attack (which you wont even use) you're not going to need those membranes for sure. I mean, what's good with the ToHit if you dont use anything that requires a TH check?

Doesn't life drain require a tohit? Isn't it lacking any accuracy?

He's an Empath, why would he use that? I think Life Drain is just there for the IO set bonuses.

Well, those are more or less there just because having basic IOs there is silly. Hoping I11 will bring us some usable +tohit sets for that.
And hey, the best attacks I have are temp powers, their accuracy sucks like hell anyway. So +tohit won't hurt :P

having never seen anyone use life drain I wasn't entirely sure

I always pick Assault over Maneuvers, I feel the defence bonus to be stupidly poor, especially with no other defence buffs.
Power Boost can be good in dire teams, but (in PVP especially) a Hold and Telekin are definately your best bets.

Maneuvers is great for slotting +def sets.

Ever been on the receiving end of Power Boosted Vengeance or Fort?

What about the stealth pool? You have almost no blasts to speak of, stealth plus superspeed makes you almost invisible in PvE and lets you avoid aggro completely.
Having a Stealth IO in superspeed is pretty much the same thing without the need to drop one of the other pools. But this is a matter of preference - some people swear to having phase shift as an emergency exit, I like to think powerboosted Vengeance does the trick if things really turn sour.

Looks reasonably solid for a PvE Build, Vengeance is a much better choice for runnin' missions than Phase Shift in my opinion.
One thing I would recommend though is losing the Status Resist IO's in your APP +Res shield. I think you'd get better use out of 3xRibosome's.
Thinking about how to "pimp up" the Defender part of my Emp/Dark, and this is pretty much the closest to overloaded I can come up with, focusing on +Heal and +Recharge on the Set bonuses:
