<《 New Colchis / Guides / Mission Architect 》>
"At what point do we say, 'You're mucking with our myths'?" - Harlan Ellison
You seem to be working toward defense bonuses, but some of the sets you're using the most (Mako's Bite, Obliteration) give primarily positional defense bonuses, not typed. That's a lot of slots for relatively little gain; you'd get better typed defense numbers if you used Kinetic Combat for your ST attacks and Eradication for the PBAoEs.
Also, Hover is way overslotted for the amount of defense it provides; RttC and QR are both underslotted.
You have more F/C def than any other type, but S/L and E/NE are far more common and should be a higher priority. Since WP doesn't need additional KB protection, I think the -KB BotZ in Fly is influence better spent on something else. (More KC sets, for instance.)
That Hami-O in Boxing is *really* influence better spent on something else. Unless you're planning on using it regularly, which seems unlikely since you're taking it so late, leave it unslotted or stick a common in there and save the Hami-O for something else.

I chose the positional defences because I thought the amount of resistance I get on the typed should be fine - so basically an all round def/resist build. This is also partly the reason for adding Obliteration and Mako's Bite IOs, but also they give added overall dmg & +rech bonuses, which help towards reducing the PBAoE recharges without resorting to purple sets

Slight adjustment to my build, after taking in some of your advice Finduilas, as well as doing some testing ingame. I wasn't feeling comfortable the way the toon playing with the previous build goal:

EDIT: still debating whether to slot taunt for MB or PZ though, and whether or not to replace ToF with Smite.... thoughts?
