I'm not an expert, but since I was told to say away I'm posting.
Oh, that and I'd do Zephyr rather than those jumps.

Very minor, but if you take a 50 common IO out of Stamina and replace it with a 50 endmod/rech (or endmod/acc), you gain 22.6 HP and lose 1/2% from total endurance recovery.

Very good sugestion thats what im looking for ill do that thanks for the info
any more suggestions are very very appreciated

postagulous
where do u think the Zyphere should go
I'm not sure who you would qualify as an expert. I'm loathe to make a post on this thread. You do realize that people make build comments for free taking their own time to do so. Asking to qualify themselves as an expert before hand is nothing short of obnoxious.
And as for the build...to be blunt, it stinks. Especially because of the vast amount of influence you spent on it. And no, it's not out of jealousy. I have billions myself and have no problems outfitting my characters in the best *if* it's what makes them the most effective.
I'm not going to go over every little detail but I will point out three things.
1. Purple procs are exceedingly good for dps yet you've excluded them every time.
2. Your build has no focus. When people build they work towards a goal: capped ranged defense, capped S/L defense, high recharge, high survivability, etc. Your build is all over the place and the only focus you seem to have is that you like to warehouse expensive sets in your build. More expensive IO sets does not necessarily mean that they're the best choice for your build.
3. You should read this: http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Enhancement_Diversification. You're way over the caps in multiple powers and the amount of increase will be shockingly little to improve your build.
With just one you will have slammed superspeed to it's cap without even slotting SS.
Edited to add: Fury's fourth sentence FTW.
Serious question, what counts as an expert in an on-line game? Devs only? People who have no jobs and do this 14 hours a day? Someone who's been playing since beta? Not trying to be snarky, just wondering what the OP is really looking for.
I'm Tealeaf, and I approve of this message.

1)Well as for what I meant by expert is people that know what there doing when it comes to IOS and sets. I havent used builders before i only did use mids to post this build so i could get serious feedback.
2) As for the "focus" the reason i chose to exclude proc on my build I was going to try to get as much recharge, Acc-95%, recharge 105% mainly in the form of bonuses. Thats just what i chose to do. While still having the acc/dam/end/rech in the powers themselves. If this is really not a good way to go about it, i honestly am unaware of that. I found that i won few fights with a dmg proc, but lost many cause i missed. Its not a farm toon so my fights are mostly duels in rv or arena with real life freinds.
3) """"You should read this: http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Enhancement_Diversification. You're way over the caps in multiple powers and the amount of increase will be shockingly little to improve your build.""" was good advice ill look into it even though im not really all the good at the math in that. Hence my request for assistance from people that espessially understand stuff like that.
as for the rest of your reply to my request for feedback on my build its was just uncalled for and please accept my apologies if you are offended by my request for asking for "expert" advice. I was not actually asking people to qualify them selves and i certainly am not an expert using builders. Or building. I was just trying to avoid people that may not have any real advice for me just throwing any ole build up there. I also was hoping for people that know much more than I do about builders and IO set bonuses for feed back.
And quite frankly it seems kind of argumentative to me to call some one obnoxious when there asking for assitance. Also to criticize me for spending toy money on a toon i like in a superhero game is kinda weird.
Anywhere they can to replace a plain ol' travel IO. No reason if you're making a killer build to skimp on something as cheap as a Zephyr. The bonuses aren't bad, 3% def of this, 2% def of that.

Good point i see what u mean.
If this is pvp you need to fix alot of things first you got alot of defense but this is a balster and in PVP zones blasters literally can't go over 20% def and even that's useless. Get rid of aid self and carry greens replace it with phase. Nova is crap in pvp and same with any other AOE get rid of them so nova and energy torrent. Melee attacks on ranged toons are weak loose em. You need 41 points of KB protection so get acro and 32 points from IOs. Get power push and slot it for knockback and use it. Oh ya change your epic to ice so you get a real self heal that also boosts your max hit points no aid self nonsense.
Hope that helps

Gets pens and paper, crayons, magic markers, his chalk boards, some calculators and a cup of coffee, thanks Lucky im gonna start mids and and get rolling on a dual build to try it out. I have my RL's freinds blaster that is energy energy also, to test it out on.
Can i ask 2 questions here?
1) Any idea on how fast phase will/can recharge?
2) Does phase and hibernate count as the same thing? I seem to remember,and , I may be wrong that phase would cause hibernate to go into a 30 sec wait.

2. you are correct about phase and hibernate there is a timer to using the two. 30 seconds sounds right
you don't need CJ SJ or SS...
your a blaster get hover and fly! it is slower yes, but safer and you can get an extra power that would help you out more to
If you want a "good build" you have to say what you want it to DO. "I want something that's good in the STF" is different from a farm build, is different from something that beats the RWZ challenge, is different from something that solos AV's. As I said in another thread, a pickup truck is worse than a Porsche- worse gas mileage, worse handling, worse for impressing people, still has no back seat- until you need to move 1500 lbs. of bricks.
I've built blasters with high typed Defense, I've built blasters with high Recharge, I've built blasters with a lot of procs, with high HP/damage/regen. I'm good with PVE.
I've never built a PVP blaster, however.

So you think you're a hero, huh.

For PVP? probably bad advice. PVE, it's fine.
