I posted this a while ago and I believe it got lost in the mix. To be fair there were quite a few interesting threads going on at once. I'm itching to try a new toon and think I'm going to give this guy a go for a change of pace from my Def-Based Scrapper Stable.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I know you said you're looking for a change of pace from your defense-based Scrappers, but I really would at least get melee to the soft cap, and probably lethal. Even at 38.4% melee defense, you're taking over twice as much damage in melee as someone at the soft cap. That pretty much wastes all your other hard work in the rest of the build.
You have one too many 3.13% AoE defense bonuses. As a step in the right direction, you could swap an Eradication set for an Obliteration set to pick up 3.75% of the melee defense you need.
Hack is generally better than Slash unless there's something very specific you're going for. I'd be using the Parry -> Headsplitter -> Parry -> Disembowel -> Hack chain, which you can do with a simple swap.
I don't recommend Achilles' Heel in AoEs. Achilles' Heel is a boss buster, not a minion muncher. It does more for you in your single-target chain. It looks like you could just switch your Slice and Head Splitter slotting, so that's the easy answer.
Pick up the hit point and endurance accolades if you haven't already.
I'm not sure what I'd put in Charged Armor, Conductive Shield and Static Shield, but slotting only resistance IOs sounds like wasted opportunity to me.
I still haven't fiddled with Electric Armor, so I'm not sure how intelligently I can comment on that or on the overall build, so I'll leave that to others.

Ok, so I've never seen one of these. It appears to me that these sets have some synergy though. Here's a build I came up with really quickly. With the slotting below it appears I'll be taking 10-12% of the incoming damages between the resistance and the defense. My Regen is up around 426% when energize is up (it's only down for ~10 seconds) with a 42% heal every 40 seconds. What are your thoughts scrappers?
