Why Blasters? Empathy Sucks.
So, you want to be Mental?
What the hell? Let's buff defenders.
Tactics are for those who do not have a big enough hammer. Wisdom is knowing how big your hammer is.
You can go the other way and trap yourself in redraw hell by rolling a defender and selecting TA/DP.

The OP can pick sets that don't require to switch to other powers too much. Rely on the Dual Pistols attacks, and use the secondary as needed. Devices removes the option of Build Up, but it does make it easy not to have much redraw. Energy Melee works okay if you ignore the attacks some, or only use them in a string when you get in close to one target.
Though keep in mind redraw isn't that huge. It's only a second and shouldn't get your teeth grinding too much.

The best are probably /Mental and /Energy. You can lead off with /Mental's AoEs and then switch to DP attacks for the rest of the fight and only have one redraw, or you can go with a perma-Boost Range build and ignore melee except for emergencies while shooting stuff from longer range.
You could also go with a DP/Electric Blapper... smash things with melee attacks and only pull out the guns for runners or to use Hail of Bullets.
