Kin/Energy build questions

Ok so I started my Kin/Energy many years ago. Pre-ED in fact, as the current build he's on has Hasten 5 slotted (from back in the day when Hasten was 6 slotted). I've gotten used to playing him with Hasten, and with Siphon Speed usage it's almost always on.

The problem is actually more slots than I know what to do with now that he's getting into the 30's. The below build is a pretty basic IO build, but I'm trying to plan out where I want the extra slots to hold the Proc's and Uniques. Did I forget, miss, or hose it up?

Also, can you stack the Hold% proc in multiple powers and have it be worth doing?

I did this close to your build just shifting a few slots and building it out to 50. This is focused on getting some defense, particularly ranged, and not using anything to super expensive.

That would give 32% ranged def with maneuvers going. You could get a bit more if you work in combat jumping, maybe in place of aim with another 2 zepher pieces. You don't really nead the damage buff since you'll rely on FS, and with 57% global acc buff plus crazy defender tactics running you wont be missing. Mass Hypnosis is cool for a Kin because you can sleep the spawn with no aggro and FS without waking em up then Nuke at your leasure

edit- yuk! looks like I used the wrong forum export Not sure which to use now

Zetaboard seems to work. Thanks for the ideas. Although it'd be easier to read if you could repost it.

Looks good. I think I'll end up keeping Aim in the build until the later 40's when I can get Tactics in the build and start getting the IO's slotted up.

But that build doesn't have Mind over Body armor... I think I'd want that to help decrease spikes. So when I end up getting tactics, I'll probably respec out of aim which will allow me to move manuvers in that spot and have a slot open for Mind over Body.

Are the chance of hold proc's worth it?
