Sonic/Psy

I've had a Sonic/Psy defender at 50 for a while now and I've always had one problem with it. No matter how I respec it the endurance drain is just horrible because of Disruption Field, which arguably is the best power of the set along with the Sonic Bubble. I have a couple of template versions in Mid's but none of them seem too good, to be honest.

Before I set you on your task to make me a better build I'll give you the few things I want:
1) Reasonable Ranged and AoE def. That is to say 25% or higher.
2) Endurance! I want easily manageable endurance and preferably without dipping into Elec or Dark mastery because I want Mind Over Body :P
3) Tactics if possible. I don't mind if you use Maneuvers as a mule.

As for price limits, no purples (unless sleep/confuse set), no LotGs (I don't even see Sonic/Psy benefitting much from +rech) and no Numi/Miracle unless absolutely needed.


Anyways, here's my latest try. Sonic Cage is there for STF because I heard you could cage the towers.

I kept what you had and just moved slots around. 13% melee, 35% ranged, 35% area.

Things you might not agree with:
I removed the knockback protection from blessing of the zephyr and got the area defense from other places (the build is at the cap for 3.13% AoE).
Sonic Cage was gutted down to one slot. Luckily you have a lot of accuracy bonuses at the level you get it so it doesn't need much.
