Concentrating on Recovery also led me to grab as much max Endurance as possible - this build sports an impressive 4.27/sec recovery and a 131 max Endurance pool.
It keeps defences around 20, so it should be reasonably survivable, especially while Darkest Night is running (there's a lot of toggles in there, but even them all running you still recover a net of 2.33/sec)
I left out purples, so this build shouldn't be terribly, terribly expensive. You could probably squeeze more recovery with a few purples, since most of those sets have Recovery bonuses in them.

Are there really that many recovery buffs from sets? I know you can do things like that the Numina and Miracle specials and the Performance Shifter +End proc.... you also should pick up the End-boosting accolades (Force of Nature, Marshal, Born in Battle). That plus frankenslotting for strong End reduction has always been enough for me.|

Unfortunately I’m on a Mac and can’t use mids, but I’m curious if anyone has a build like this so I can go long fights (as this toon will be duoing allot on high diffs) |
With my Fire/Dark I focused on getting lots of +recharge. Having stuff like Tar Patch and Rain of Fire come up faster is awesome; I can always mitigate End issues by eating a blue.

Above build has 21 extra endurance from set bonuses, which is probably the biggest way to boost recovery. It's also gotten a further 20% boost to Recovery from set bonuses. So there are a fair number to be had, yes.

My build has a hybrid of Recharge, Endurance and Defense so that I can adapt to more situations at will. It's only 24% ranged def, 118% rech and recovers 3.4 eps, but with Power Sink from the Mu pool and the right insps, I never need anything else. A single purple puts me near the cap, my tar patch self stacks and Power Sink is up anytime I need it.
While having more end is always a good thing, the reality is that you give up a lot for it. With proper end reduction slotting, some investment in +recov set bonuses and supporting powers, I find that trying to get more end than I have already is a waste. Diminishing returns and all that.
I'd *never* give up Blaze to have more end, nor slot FS with anything but -tohit debuff. They're just too important to how a Fire/Dark functions.

Fire without Blaze is the saddest, saddest thing.
