Could you possibly post Mid's data chunk (for lazy ppl like me )
(if you used Mid's that is...)

Anyway, i would atleast drop resurgence (you dont plan on dying a lot, or are ya?) and pick up weave to replace that...
And maybe switch conserve power pick to 49.

Sorry don't have a data chunk. Not sure on that because lately I've had end issues in long fights.

There is nothing wrong with frankenslotting if you cant afford whole IO sets. And there are some sets which are CHEAPER than generic IOs, eg. multistrike which is a nice PBAoE set is usually dirt cheap. Have to also say again, how often do you use Resurgence? If you use it often, do you do something wrong? Remember that while weave might take 0,33 end/s (unslotted for -end) it gives you 3.75% def all (again, unslotted) which while seemingly low, it does adds up.

Dunno, this is what i would be aiming for (note: you might find some powers overslotted eg. tough and weave, so its possible to get some slots from there so other places)
Its either haste or Strength of Will @49 and i decided for haste, since i really hate crashes (combined to a long recharge, ouch... but if you like the Tier 9, then take it!). Could also replace Weave with Resurgence or Strength of Will if you are unwilling to let it go.

I have resurgence just for Rikti raids, and Hami raids mainly, stuff where there's a good chance of dying.

Ok, then ditch Weave (like you have been all along) and take Resurgence

How much would that build cost?

I'd say pretty much the same as with generic IOs, or maybe even less. Iirc, Multistrikes and Crushing Impacts are very cheap (i'd estimate 10-100k/ recipe). *edit* Crushings might be a bit more expensive, but should still be affordable.

However, since were not too far off from the double-exp weekend, prizes might be a tad higher. Although, because of the new 4XP system, there might already be a "surplus" of the uncommon recipes in the market, thus the prizes have prolly dropped.

I just wanted to share my build.....
