A little build advice please

I dusted off my Axe/Shield Brute last night. Looked at the build and realized that I'm not too fond of it. The thing sucks end like a vacuum, and is not too sturdy. Any advice is welcome.

Here is the build

Here's something quick I did. I sorta gutted the build and added a lot of crucial powers you skipped (swoop, phalanx fighting, build up) and took out the patron pool and one with the shield (I never took OWTS on a tank or brute, never had the room). This caps positional defense and should increase survivability a lot.

If endurance is still a problem, put the numina and miracle uniques into Health.

Thanks. I'll take a look.

ArcWeld, the build you posted is good, but I would recommend a couple of changes. Both Tough and Weave are underslotted for end reduction and they're fairly expensive toggles. You're also over the cap on 10% regen bonuses, so I'd pull two slots from Grant Cover (which is only helping your allies anyway) and put one slot each in Tough and Weave.

Adding a LotG Def/End/Rchg, and 3-slotting Tough with a set like Titanium Coating or Aegis, (Res/End, Res, Res/End/Rchg) will give you nearly 48% end reduction in each power.

Another Aegis set would put you well over the soft-cap for AoE, so you could replace one of the Scirocco's sets with 3 or 4 Eradication, which would boost E/NE def over the soft-cap.
