which do you prefer? PvP or PvE? Spines is quite either-or type of set with powers that fit pvp great and other powers that fit pve great ...

/WP isn't exactly the best thing for a PvP scrapper, you're better off with fire or regen. Anyways, for PvE you'll want (from spines) all except barb swipe and confront (this could be useful, but it's not needed) and from WP all except resurgence (which again, could be useful but is not needed).
From power pools you'll likely want Stamina, Tough, a travel power and maybe Hasten. Ancillary power pools arent really needed. You could go for energy torrent though if you still have enough power picks left.

This is the build i have come up with. The slotting isnt good but i think the powers are pretty much right. I want to squeeze as much damage out as possible. I have taken on board the comments but i wouldnt go with fire, it has rubbish defense. Mabye Regen tho. I will try makin a build with that and seeing how good that it. Money isnt an issue. Anyways here is the Spines/WP build i made:

but i wouldnt go with fire, it has rubbish defense.
[/ QUOTE ]
What? 33% res to S/L/E/N along with 75% F and 15% C? With a heal that has 40s base recharge? Far from rubbish, it also has a 2nd BU.
