Well, it's no warshade...

...but it is built to survive.

This is my human-only peacebringer. I was not aiming for recharge bonuses and I did not take hasten. I want to have at least one character not gimmick'd around recharge. Anyway, this PB is part of a static team of sorts, so I don't expect to solo him anywhere.

Instead, the build focused on grabbing +HP and +Regen everywhere I could, as well as +damage and mez resists. In my AoE attacks I was sure to slot the -res proc (I don't think they'd be as effective in single target attacks).

What are your thoughts?

If there's anything wrong, tell me now before I start spending inf on it.

Random side question: Does Light Form act like a break free?

Light form doesn't act like a break free.
Survival is not the problem for human peacebringers, reform essence recharges fast enough to keep you going in most cases even without running shields.
I think you will have to get a lot of global recharge to get a reasonable non-sucktastic dps chain.

I'm not worried about having an optimal DPS chain, and I'm not adding hasten to this build. Perma-hasten, recharge builds, gimmick builds, or whatever you want to call them, they really only work for something like perma-PA or Eclipse. Outside of that, adding recharge has a kind of diminishing returns. The more you add, the less effect each addition has.

I just tried making a build to cram in as much recharge as I could fit without changing the powers... Incandescent Strike and Solar Flare go from 9 second recharge to 8. Whoopie. I'm convinced that it's not worth it to go for a recharge build.

Maybe +HP and +regen isn't the way to go. Are there any other suggestions?

All my level 41+ powers are kind of suprufulous. I expect to use Dawn Strike once in a blue moon, but I don't think the others will find much use. What are some good alternatives (pools or otherwise, but not hasten)?
