Help Kat/WP build
only thing i can see is sloting Divine Avalanche for only def purpuses is a wast of a percfectly good attack. u are spaming it every time it is up miz-well make it hit like a truck.
Looks like you're slotting for positional defense. Bad idea, because Willpower already offers typed defense. Slotting Willpower for positional defense is like recruiting an All State linebacker......for your basketball team.
For WP, I slot my PBAoEs with a mix of 4 Eradications (I skip the 4 piece and the proc) and 2 Scirocco's Dervish (Acc/Rech and Dam/Rech). You also skipped one of your PBAoEs, Lotus Drops, I would definitely take it and slot it like I mentioned, it's actually a pretty good AoE.
Slot Heightened Senses better, I like 4 LotG, but any combination that gives you ED capped defense enhancement will work.
Swap Sting of the Wasp for Gambler's Cut, it is the better attack, and will give you a chance to apply the -Res from the Achille's proc more often. I'd also pull the Achille's proc out of Soaring Dragon, it doesn't stack, and with as much as you'll be using Gambler's Cut the one in SD is kind of redundant.
Cmls is right about Divine Avalanche, slot it as an attack. It already hurts your DPS by using it so often, why hurt it even more by not slotting it to deal damage? Would be a good place for another Kinetic Combat set. You can 6 slot it and fill in the other 2 slots with defense enhancement if you like.
Might as well throw a LotG Recharge in Combat Jumping. It enhances defense too, so you won't be losing much at all, and will gain some more recharge.
You have Stamina overslotted. I would slot both Stamina and QR with 4 Performance Shifters including the proc (no, they are NOT unique, it's a common mistake to make, I thought they were at first too)
That's about all I can see, hope it helps.

It's better.
I would have stuck with the Reactive Armor in Mind Over Body and Tough, and put the Res/Def in High Pain Tolerance. You can move the slots directly from Mind over Body to Tough and be fine. The only useful bonus you're getting from Titanium Coating is the 1.25% S/L defense bonus, you get the same bonus from Reactive Armor, and you get more E/N.E defense while you're at it.
I'd also switch the slotting in RttC from Miracle to Numina's. You should have plenty of recovery, so the 12% regen and max HP bonuses would serve you better there. You can move the Miracle proc to Health.
I never felt that slotting RttC for to-hit debuff was worth it, but if you're getting a useful bonus from the ones you have in it you can leave it, shouldn't hurt anything.
Willpower doesn't really need more recharge than you need to run your attack chains. I'd swap the slotting in Fast Healing to 3 Numina's and add a 2nd and 3rd slot to Health for the remaining procs (the aforementioned Miracle proc, and Regenerative Tissue)

Yup, looks good.
Need to add a quick disclaimer though. My advice is based on what *I* would do with a Kat/WP scrapper. If you find another way of slotting works better for you, don't think you can't do it just because a guy on the forums said to do it different.

Nice disclaimer
Ok...not the best at number crunching, nor Katana ...well heck none of it.
Anyways. I came up with this build and I truly expect you guys to rip it apart because I feel like IM totally messing it up...some advice/help/smacking about the head and shoulders till I think/whatever would be appreciated.
Thanks
