I'd say Conserve Power. With Stamina, you'll need it a lot less, and Power Sink is only a few levels away. I have a Stamina-less dark/elec but I get another +end power from my primary (so don't have Conserve Power). Another option is to drop Lightning Field for now and take it later. It's a good power but very endurance hungry, and mainly useful in large-ish teams (I don't know if you solo much). Changing a Dmg enhance for an EndRdx in your attacks would also help your endurance problems and if this allows you to build Fury faster (and keep it going), you won't miss that Dmg SO anyway.

End slot attacks before toggles unless lightning field with which 2 end is comfy. Less than 5 foes turn LF off and use taunt instead. Every attack has a maximum to hit and your build should of more likely functioned better on the largest of teams. I struggle with mine but in a big team she always came home. Now moved to Zukunft its more painful XD .

Hmm, will I have no endurance problems at all with Stamina + Power Sink even if I remove Conserve Power?

I'd choose conserve over getting stamina any day of the week for /elecs. Overall its better than stamina but it has down time. It can help you fight from low end or under -rec circumstances. I'd haste conserve and power sink and instead of health, aid self. I'd love swift though normally but with such good end return and end resist I think not, its gotta be Superspeed but ya get lightning reflexes anyway.

As I don't want to make a second thread I'll use this one...
How should I slot Lightning Rod for maximum efficiency? Currently trying 3 Accuracy 3 Recharge Reduction, putting it on the same recharge time as Build Up and also making it comfortable to use whenever the recharge is done. However, I'm wondering if it would be better to slot it with, say, 3 Damage instead of the Recharge and simply use it as an extremely hard-hitting opener... Any thoughts?
I was wondering about this, and i should point out that my elec/ brute doesnt have rod yet, but i was intending on 2 acc, 2 dmg, 2 rec redux, with 2 or 3 rec redux in BU so that i would always use BU before lightning rod. The recharge is long, so needs some reduction imo, but damage slotting most certainly shouldnt be left out! Wouldn't think 3 accuracy would be necessary, especially if using if after BU. Just my thoughts tho. And it will be very different with IO set slotting.

Am currently trying out 2 acc 2 dmg 2 recharge, actually, and it works great.
Also, was putting Endurance modification into Power Sink (along with recharges of course) a silly idea or not? With only two (currently level 36 so I have 4 slots in it) I seem to drain rougly 2/3 of enemy endurance when I use it, very useful when fighting tough crowds of mobs I'd say.
A very good idea, not stupid at all. My /energy brute has the equivalent of it (which is exactly the same but drains a little less from the foes, but rewards the same amount to me) and i ave it slotted 2 recharge, 2 end mod and its ideal. Up whenever i want it, and drains enough end to almost completely refill my end off only 2 minions. Shouldnt need any more than 2 IOs.

So, at level 31 I finally completed the Tree of Thorns trial. Having been grossly annoyed by the lack of Stamina for 31 levels, I figured I'd drop two powers (I already have Swift) and grab Health and Stamina so I could enjoy Lightning Rod at level 32 even better.
However, I can't figure out what power to drop in addition to Taunt.
Furthermore, as this is my highest character and I haven't been playing long, I figure I should ask for some help with Slotting, too... So far I've been going by what I figured makes sense, but I could always be wrong. I recently read on these forums that 3-slotting Build Up with recharges is a silly idea, for example, as 2 are enough and the 3rd only shaves off 1 second of recharge.
So, this is what I have right now: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ent=respec.jpg
My current thoughts are either Charged Brawl or Conserve Power. But I use both all the time, so that's not a comfortable idea, either. Even if I drop one of those two I'd probably want to take it back later... Hell, I use everything there. Any advice would be most appreciated...
