I couldnt have a firetank without kb protection by 20. Lack of it can scotch you up without hover. Otherwise it looks okay however I like my haste in early on healing flames and consume. I do end up pushing fitness back as a result but its not actually too bad a thing to do.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
You could always get an IO in there for KB. Or you could slot Kinetic Crash in Jawbreaker for a cheeper option.
I really should do something about this signature.
Thanks so far - plan to take Kin Crash in JB for KB protection, may even go so far as to slot an IO. I've had a think about what you said about hasten, and amended as below. It does mean no pulverize till 44 and I assume no epic (or 2 spaces for epic at end)

I "highly" recommend Hasten for starting out an early build, but then after that everything can change, although in every single case of mine it don't. I have to have hasten! 
Oh wait! Not on my Willpower XD.
I am not convinced people know how great on Vahz Fire is. It it is a matter of practically spamming healing flames, that is even running between groups, you know when you've done one branch and head to another. With Hasted Healing Flames I get upto 80% res to Toxic iirc. I know later everything gets mullered fast but that's later.

wouldnt mind some input on my planned fire/mace build. Here's what i've got so far - although I'll point out that at this point i'm actually only lvl 7
