Ancillary Power Pool and MA/Regen?

I am trying to decide what to take for my APP powers, and having no characters above 40 before, I don't really have any idea sort of what I am doing.

I am looking at Body. I have like no end problems, so I am not sure if Conserve Power is worth it, so it looks like FA is the obvious choice if anything. How does having FA change my slotting for +ACC?

After that, I am looking at maybe energy torrent, but it just doesn't feel right for my char to take ranged anything, so I am reluctant.

What's the standard package that people take?

CP is largely redundant on a */regen since you've already got QR and most likely Stamina. MA's end issues aren't so extreme as to require anything else, much less actually require Stamina even with FA or Targeting Drone turned on.

I generally take FA and LBE and that's it. FA is great for the Gaussian's set and LBE takes Apoc.

FA will only slightly reduce how much you need to slot acc into your powers. It adds only 20% acc, which isn't really much to go home about, and a pittance of +tohit (~7.5% enhanced). In SO terms, you could get away with only slotting a single acc rather than 2 (unless you're like me and go with a single acc anyway).

I would probably go Body as well. The KD on Energy Torrent is just too good on a Regen...
