Ok so this is the build I am thinking of using in pvp. If you could critique it, that would be great. Remember Tough Love is the best kind of love. If it sucks just say so .

If not too late or unless for thematic reason, I would probably go for Kat/Regen instead of BS cause Kat seems to have better DPS than BS.
Anyway I think you should build +recharge and +dam and HP. Your regen can be obtained by Fast Healing, Integration and Health. I wouldn't go over board with it though because DR hits it really hard.
Below is my build or very close to it. I've been using it since i12 and could use some tweeks but it's still doing fine. You could probably drop Parry and Whirling Sword cause they're not really needed in PvP. May want to take Confront to help fight squishies.

I've heard that Broadsword is better than Katana in PvP, because it has better burst damage. Katana's DPS seems to matter more in PvE, where the targets are usually more stationary and have a greater amount of HP to dwindle down.

As for the OP's build, I was looking at your choice of Air Superiority. It's a great power to juggle targets, but it causes redraw with BS, and considering the nature of PvP movement, you might be better to just let loose one of your heavy hitting attacks. Now if you are using it as a mule for the +5% recharge in Crushing Impact, then that's cool, but you can drop a slot in that power and put it somewhere else.

This is the build I just created. I am not great with mids, nor am i a great PvPer, but i think it is a pretty solid build. I focused on recharge with regen and defense being secondary focuses. The only problem I can see is lack of accuracy but the debuff from BS should solve that problem. Lastly, I put in a few shinies like the LoTGs and Numinas but those certainly are not necessary. (without the LoTGs you can't run the HS-->disembowel-->hack chain but you can mix in laser eyes and it is difficult to really get an uninterrupted chain going in PvP. Feel free to comment on the build and if you have the cash, throw in some purps

Oh yeah, I think this build could probably solo some AVs nicely too.

I dont know your playstyle but i like to run around smacking faces and challenging people to duels on my regens. So for me, SJ is a big waste of a power...i simply took leadership instead, no perception in pvp is no good imo...not to mention the to hit and extra bit of dmg u get from taking tactics and assault.

Not sure if you are referring to my build or not. If so, I have Focused accuracy in the build to give some extra to-hit and perception, although i see the value of assault and tactics.
