DM/Elec and +recharge
I'm not sure what is going on with my Mid's Builder, or perhaps there is just something I've overlooking, but I have a SS/Elec build that has Perma Energize, but when I convert over to Dark/Elec and try to get a build together for you I lose perma energize and can only get it to 40s recharge (10 second downtime).
For whatever reason, on the Dark/Elec build Mid's is capping the Global Recharge at 82.5%. Anyway, here is the build that has a Global Recharge of 122.5% (by my Calculations not Mids" which easily gives you Pergam Energize and Soul Drain.

You will need to add Speed, for hasten, and a Patron Power Pool for additional purple set bonuses. Also, what's your price range?
I have yet to see a perma-energize build that doesn't make egregious sacrifices to achieve it. Every build has actually lowered its potency by pursuing a glut of global recharge set bonuses. The amount of regen you get from energize is far less than the heal in almost every situation. Use it as an alpha absorber and endurance tool rather than a +regen click. The +regen is just a perk to get you over the hump of an alpha strike.
I'm not sure what is going on with my Mid's Builder, or perhaps there is just something I've overlooking, but I have a SS/Elec build that has Perma Energize, but when I convert over to Dark/Elec and try to get a build together for you I lose perma energize and can only get it to 40s recharge (10 second downtime).

Perma Energize, as said above, isn't all it's cracked up to be. The regen isn't the big deal, it's the heal that really is important. Now, the same can't necessarily be said about Perma Soul Drain, as it is best to have it at as low a recharge as possible, but perma isn't really necessary either, as you will rarely come up against a group of mobs that really will take more than one (other than an AV and some mobs to buff up your Soul Drain, but even then that's not the greatest idea as heals can't really defend against an AV's massive burst damage and tacking on more guys to that would probably not be great).
I've dusted off an old favorite, my DM/Elec brute, and I'm looking for build advice. I'm a bit of a purist, so I don't generally like taking a lot of pool powers, though I do recognize their value.
I'm trying to come up with a build that will produce (at least near)perma-energize and Soul Drain (since their timers are the same, achieving one will get both). I can't seem to get close enough. I figure (if my maths are right) that if I can achieve enough global recharge to reach perma-hasten I can do it. I can get about halfway there, before I start sacrificing good slotting for set bonuses, which I don't think will end well. I would post my build so far, but it is a mess right now (I'm still learning how to optimize sets).
I've currently got this brute using the fitness (for Stamina), fighting (for Tough), and leaping (for travel) pools. I'd prefer not to add additional pools unless necessary, but I'd happily change Leaping for another travel pool.
Does anyone have a good build for this?
TL;DR: I'm looking for a build to achieve Perma-hasten levels of global recharge with my DM/Elec brute without sacrificing survivability or SMASH.
