This is almost exactly what my current live build is. Shockwave doesn't have the full 5 Ragnaroks and likely never will, I find the extra range from 2 Centrioles left yet from her old pre IO days of more value than completing the full set of Ragnaroks. The slotting on live is actually 1 Nucleolus, 2 Centrioles, Ragnarok Acc/Rech and Ragnarok Dam/End which puts the range at a little over 40 ft.
Far as Aid Self vs Physical Perfection. Never been a big fan of Aid Self but that's just me. I will say that the limitless endurance I have after PP I'll take any day over getting the occasional damage spike that manages to kill me before my passive regen can fix me up. It is very very nice to utterly ignore your end bar the vast majority of the time. I've used CP maybe a half dozen times and pretty much it's been either after a sapper hit or a Mask of Vitiation has landed and I'm not sure I had to use CP in any of those cases ... more than enough blues usually sitting in her tray waiting to either be turned into something else or given to a teammate to cover the situation generally.
Likewise post BotZ her build is no longer quite soft capped vs ranged or AoE. I do have a build figured out dropping swift, adding maneuvers, moving slots and getting everything soft capped again. That said even with all the respecs I have available for her I've no plans currently to do so. Teammates and inspires pretty much mean she's soft capped when she wants to be anyway so unless she takes up doing daily RWZ challenges or something can't see her really needing to get those couple percent back.

Only one of the crazy things Greta has done would the presence of Aid Self have maybe made a significant difference ... solo Woodsman sans inspires or dying. He manage to hit her often enough while she was low in health to take her down (and him with only 5000 or so health left when he did it). Perhaps the rapid increase in health from Aid Self would have prevented the death. Or maybe she'd only have been less dead.
The flip side to repeatedly using Aid Self to stay afloat is it cuts into your damage output. The relatively high health and passive regen Greta has does its thing while she continues the beatdown without pause. Or put another way in the 8 seconds or so it would take to fire off and recharge Aid Self Greta will have gained about 225 health without sacrificing any dps vs the 500 or so heal of Aid Self (and the 5 seconds or so of damage output lost).
Yea, in my build I sacrificed Aid Self in order to get more recharge, sure you lose survivability but for the most part when I solo my regen is enough to keep my alive. I had problems with Battle Maiden but she hits hard..Diabolique I fought for about an hour (damn PFF) and then got bored. Looking back I thought Aid Self was necessary but now that I don't have it I really don't miss it all that much.
Aid Self really just comes down to personal preference I think.
Anyone have a more updated build for a claws/sr? I havent seen anything within the last few issues. My current build looks like the following; not sure if I should go with Aid Self or put in physical perfection.
