Basically my build is below but after pvping with it for a while it seems to be a few problems, mainly endurence.

Any -recovery power pretty much kills off any chance I have of winning and claws seems to be eating away at endurence, whilst its the cheapest set endurence wise the fast animations mean your hitting twice at least in the time it takes everyone else to animate one power and taking loads of endurence in the process.
The idea of the animation time was the original reason I chose claws but the endurence is pretty much killing it.

The problem is I dont really want to sacrifice any of the damage or hp boosts in my build in the process of trying to sort it since there kinda helpful with fires weaker resists.

I know theres no web grenade, but I have that covered with the temp power which I always have

Suggestions/Improvements?

I think you need more End Reduction in all your toggles (IO's HO's and/or find the slots), SS included ....just my $0.02...good luck!

Well im starting to think its the claws side thats draining my endurence more than the other player is. Claws may have low endurence cost but because of its speed and animation time its almost constantly going down in buckets at a time.

So for that reason I am thinking of rerolling, Fire/Fire brute, Fire/Fire tanker or Fire/Fire scrapper. Which would you guys say is the best in PvP and why?

fire/fire tank

because you like rolling retarded useless builds and i think a fire/fire tank would fulfill all of those attributes.

Actually fire/fire tank isnt retarded in the pve game if you know what your doing

PvP it didnt used to be bad but since i13 I have no idea tbh thats why Im here :P

Dont roll melee unless you are making a taunt bot. If you want fire so bad and you use it in pve might as well go for a fire/nrg blaster.
