I think some powers can be slotted better. I would slot blinding feint like an attack such that it can hit. In addition, your defense toggles are over-slotted for defense. I would replace the defense/recharge IO with a defense/end/recharge one.
Overall, I think the build is ok. An issue with willpower is that there are not many powers that we want to skip. While for dual blades, if you want more than one attack combo, you have to take nearly the whole power set. So, willpower and dual blades together mean that you nearly can't take any pool powers after picking fitness and fighting. Below, I tweaked your build a little with only the sweep combo. I think the character is tougher this way. Maybe you think this is unacceptable, but you can take a look.

Here is my Db/wp build for mine..it was my first brute and i used to farm Lib Tv map til my eyes bleed at +2/8. Also good against rikti with the 40 energy/neg def. Very comparable to twilights build. The powers i picked from primary will do the sweep combo(crutial for mitigation), and the attack vitals combo which i like because vengeful slice is another knockdown and the DOT is nice. Less end drain, more regen,rech.

I've decided to finally take a crack at working out a build in Mids, and I think I've gotten something settled with a DB/WP. My plan is to make it a character that'll be a decent tank for higher end stuff while staying passable for malefactoring down into the 20s. It's the first character I've actually looked into IO sets on, so most of the slotting is from what I've put together second-hand.
