15% over the S/L defense cap isn't worth it in most if not all cases when you end up making so many sacrifices elsewhere. 36% global Recharge? No Earth's embrace, No Fire imps, no seismic smash, no char, Recharge time on cinders and flashfire, siphon speed, etc etc.
Some of it I can understand, imp's don't do *that* much but even boss farming I bring them out once I fall under the aggro cap to help move through them faster, especially on the last few stragglers. You don't really *need* an aoe Mez when LT/Minion farming, but for bosses between fissure and flashfire (on a decent recharge) you can keep them near perma stunned. Also cinders + all the Cages Spam (with purp hold proc) will give you some breathing room if you ever need it.
FS is over slotted, one acc one recharge is all you really need.
All in all, I'd say go back, get rid of some of that S/L defense get your recharge up in the 70% range, maybe re evaluate some of your power picks. Assuming you are looking for an optimal build.
No clue why you would take siphon power, but skip some of the other options mentioned above.
And also, Mag 4 KB will still get you sent flying by council bosses if you farm them in normal content. If you don't? Don't worry about it.
"Bad" is right. The lack of any real damage output is also pretty heavy into the 'poor idea' territory. That said, [primary]/Kinetics Controllers, in the late game, should rarely need that much Defense. The primary is there for more than just IO slotting.

Every toon, regardless of build, should aim for the defense softcap when and if possible. And the OP never posted a question or comment with their build. Do they want a critique of it or are they just showing off? If it's the latter I've got two fire/kins with 6 purple sets each I can post that will likely put yours to shame.|

EDIT: after looking at the build I have to ask... is this a joke? 4 slotted brawl/kick/boxing? 6 slotted tactics? srsly? What a waste of slots. And zero damage slotted in hotfeet, which is the bread and butter of your damage output. Drop siphon power in favor of char, 4 slot it and put in basilisks gaze for another 7.5% rech, then do the same for cinders. Slot siphon speed with 3 recharge IOs to ensure its up as much as possible for easy 3 stacking of it. Six slot hotfeet with atleast 3 IOs worth of damage (obliterations are nice).

Right. I don't dispute that. 60.1% smash/lethal defense is what I choose to dispute.|
