SS/Inv Build
This looks very familiar--I think I commented on the build you borrowed it from.
Most of the same comments apply. First of all, this is a *very* expensive build; just the two PvP uniques--if you can even find them--are going to cost you a couple of billion influence. Unless you've got very deep pockets, I wouldn't plan on that extra 3% defense unless you've got the IO already. (I really don't know why you'd bother with that Shield Wall unique; 3% additional resistance isn't going to make that much difference to your build.)
With Invinc set to one foe, you're currently at about 44% S/L def, which is good, but dependent on having having the 3% from the GA unique. Also, you've currently got almost as much F/C def as S/L def, which won't be nearly as useful as S/L or even E/NE def. If you replace 3 of the Aegis sets with 4-slot sets of Reactive Armor you'd be able to soft-cap S/L without the GA IO.
Your attack slotting looks pretty good, bonus-wise. I don't know how attached you are to the Apolcalypse set in Hurl, but if you replace it with 6 slots of Thunderstrike you'd get another 3.75% E/NE defense. With those changes (the 3 sets of RA and Thunderstrike in Hurl) you'd have 45% S/L, 40% E/NE, and 31% F/C def with Invinc set to one foe, all without the GA unique.
Hope that helps!

Thank you so much for the reply. I will give it a go
For a ranged, direct damage attack, you might also consider Mu Lightning instead of Hurl. It has a much faster cast time, fast enough that you can use it to help fill out your melee attack chain.
I outlined a build for an inv Brute and am trying to get my def up as high as possible. Please take a look and tell me your thoughts on what I may be missing. I worked off a build I made and another build I found online.
