Going for +recharge and +defense is a very good place to start.

Indeed +Recharge will always benefit Regen. Reconstruction, Dull Pain, and IH available more often is never a bad thing. As far as +Defense goes, I'd aim for Melee defense, instead of spreading the defense bonuses around. Defense is a tricky dog, it's cumulative so every little bit helps more than the previous little bit until you reach the softcap.
You might get some more slotting ideas if you have a working build and an idea of the powers you want to keep.

TA/A-Plant/TA-Bots/TA
Level 50 Claws Scrappers
SR-Regen-DA-Invul-WP-FA
Here's the Claws/Regen I've got sitting around on my hard drive. It's not I16 up to date (re: dropping off Fitness for Physical Perfection), but it should be more than enough to give you something to aim for. It's got very effective damage, impressive survivability, and excellent endurance sustainability.
As to what IOs to slot, Touch of Death and Mako's Bite 6 piece are awesome for your attacks. Crushing Impact 5 piece is decent for attacks as well if you somehow short on 5% +rech set bonuses (which you shouldn't be because it's the most common +rech type). 6 piece Obliteration for your AoEs is wonderful and if you use anything except a purple for them, I'm going to stab you. For Focus (and other ranged attacks), except for the purp, your best bet is 5 piece Decimation or Devastation (the purp trumps them both). For Recon, IH, and Dull Pain, 5 piece Panacea and Doctored Wounds are roughly equal (DW grants more recharge thanks to higher enhancement values so I stick with that as opposed to the roughly better set bonuses of Panacea). LotG +rechs are your best friend, as is the BotZ 3 piece set bonus (easiest 3.13 +def to 2 positions you'll ever get).

I've got a 50 claws/regen scrapper (My first 50) that I've been trying to IO out for awhile now without much success. I know the first advice that's usually given to people who start threads like this is something along the lines of "It depends what your goal is, and what you want to be able to do," but that's my whole problem. I can't really figure out a good point of emphasis to work on with him.
So essentially I'm just wanting to know what some other people have done with their claws/regen toons, with the notion that hearing some of these ideas might provide me with some inspiration.
Thanks.
