This is the build I came up with to get my old toon going again. I went for softcapped s/l obviously. Ive been struggling with power selections though. I am kinda tempted to drop TF and pick up something else, like dark oblit. Im not even sure how I wanna play this guy now. I definitely want him to be a toon I can just jump into mobs and start swinging with, not having to worry about end and such. SOoo, any input?

I modified your build slightly to acquire more e/ne defense bonus (~42% after BotZ adjustment). I slot boxing up, then you can use it as a filler attack without wasting a power choice. I drop total focus as well, and pick up one more patron power.
