One thing I forgot to note:
I took the mocking beratement set on Omega because of the superior recharge bonus (it was the last thing I took to get perma-hasten). I know this doesn't play well for damage, the best suit of Omega. I am wondering how much the +taunt will have an effect, though. Anyone tried this?

My build is somewhat similar. Aoe and ST attack chains are smooth, and Serum is perma (hasten almost is, but there's no need for more recharge in this build).
I've traded some Accuracy for a little bit more Def on the Melee and AoE Positionals, some more End breathing room, and almost doubled the Regen (28 HP/s vs 14).

I would suggest getting Luck of the Gambler through the merit system since that will save around 200 million. Last time I checked, Ragnarok was going for insane amounts of inf so it might cost 600 million for just that set. The build looks decent as far as I know. I went for a ranged permanent pet build with decent defense and it looks like you are about the same.
The first step in being sane is to admit that you are insane.
My build is somewhat similar. Aoe and ST attack chains are smooth, and Serum is perma (hasten almost is, but there's no need for more recharge in this build).
I've traded some Accuracy for a little bit more Def on the Melee and AoE Positionals, some more End breathing room, and almost doubled the Regen (28 HP/s vs 14).

I am having a lot of fun with a Crab build that looks very nice in Mids. I am soliciting both advice in slotting and powerset choice, as well as a ballpark price for the build. I have never completely IO'd out a character, but this one looks pretty fun.
