I currently have a Dm/Fire Brute who has been Melee softcapped for quite a while and sometimes, he honestly feels like cheating, specially with the new changes to Fiery Aura. I've been reading on forums that it seems S-L softcapping is more advisable to avoid def debuffs which are usually associated with S-L damage plus my guess is that I'd also be covered for a fair amount of exotic dmg which would be mised with S-L dmg on several attacks (no clue about how high the % of mixed S-l + exotic dmg is vs. pure exotic dmg is). So far my current build is this one:

I've been seriously considering changing his build into the follwoing one, which besides the advantages abovementioned, would also allow my to use my Gladiator's Armor 3% for another char or to be sold but, are there any major disadvantages I might have overlooked by turning a Melee softcapped build into a S-L softcapped build?

This is my idea of how he'd be with S-L softcapping:

The same global recharge and power picks, but with much better defenses? Do it! I would take softcapped S/L with 40% melee over softcapped melee and 35% s/l any day.

I think you're right that a TON of defense debuff is associated with lethal (swords and bullets in particular). The only really bad defense debuff I know offhand that isn't is the radiation - typed attacks, like what Shivans use.

I believe Sonic and "Energy Blast" both tend to have smashing type in there too, so you're covering huge ground with S/L.

The only thing, which I'm sure you noticed, is your Psi hole is really showing. There's some content that would be made much more difficult because of that. But, otoh with this build I'm guessing you find yourself with extra greens and purples a lot anyway.

It looks awesome.

Oh, and you probably will make up the 5% for melee defense in a lot of cases between the -tohit on your primary's attacks.

I'd go for the S/L defense. Most melee attacks in the game have smashing or lethal, and the ones that don't are usually fire, which I'm pretty sure you've got covered. You also get bonus protection from bullets and a ton of other types of ranged damage.
