First costume is awesome and I totally want to build a DP blaster now.
It kind of imports into the I18 Mids'. It shows Stamina, but not the rest of the new inherents. I don't know enough about Blasters to comment intelligently anyway. I just wanted to say that...
Gah! Your costumes are just too good for words!

Bah. Werner, I don't understand why you don't have a different install of Mids' just for I19 stuff. How can anybody resist making I19 builds? Having those extra power picks is just oh so tasty! 
And thanks for the costume compliments! That portion of the character is just as important as their Mids' build to me!

I figure I can get the same effect in I18 Mids' by "slotting" Health and Stamina in Rest. (But that's more for "how many slots do I have to work with?" not for "what are my regen/recovery numbers?" I already know the latter! :P)

Why is this in the scrapper forums if it is a blaster build?
It looks okay, but I like using Mace Mastery for Scorpion Shield. That makes it possible to cap ranged, energy, smashing, and lethal defense on almost any build that can use it. Smashing and lethal defenses aren't quite enough for me.

Good idea on the Scorpion Shield! I hadn't thought about that. I don't like the idea of having Ice Armor, but didn't think about grabbing Patron stuff. Excellent, thanks!

The Chance for Heal Self proc is kinda poo. Doesn't heal for much and doesn't go off enough to be worth it. Just eat a green if/when you need to. You could swap the Entropic Chaos sets for Decimations/Apocs (assuming expense is not an issue given you've got the Glad Def IO in there).
Are you dead-set on the Munitions pool? As Syntax42 said, You could get softcapped s/l/e defense with much better recharge, regen and rec numbers if you went with the Scorpion Pool for the shield. I don't see the FFB proc in LRM being of much use, I find it a lot better in powers you use all the time (Footstomp, Tremor, etc).
If you went the Patron route you could also pick up Total Focus and better slot out your melee stuff.
Hope that helps

First, Dual Pistols sucks. It's just awful. But I love the concept too, and thus I am leveling a DP build.
I agree on the Scorpion Shield route. A base 10% S/L defense before slotting is just too good to pass up. That's 4 Kinetic Combats. It *also* bumps Energy.
With that change I would change out the Reactive Armor for Aegis for the F/C defense.
I would also look at Recharge to see if it is possible to go with a Thunderstrike option to cap Energy defense and get Negative up to 30. You give up those tasty 6.25 recharge bonuses in Entropic, but you might appreciate the defense against pure energy and negative types.
Another option to consider is Aid Self instead of Leadership. Your character looks pretty sleak/tech so the animation isn't off for you. I really like the option to heal, and to be honest with all the "keep the NPC alive" content I tend to run solo the Aid Other is actually really handy with a default slot for topping off NPCs.

(see build below)
I am not opposed to dropping Munitions Pool for better mitigation. Currently though, I do have Munitions and I really love the second AoE attack. That isn't a FFB proc by the way, it is a Recharge/Endurance IO, because I cannot get said stats from any other way.
I'm probably not going to go through the lengths to get any purple or PvP sets for this character, so the Apocalypse is out. The heal procs are just an added bonus and a necessary as part of the set bonus of Recharge, they're nice to have but not the main attraction of the attack being set that way. Besides, Decimation has a 5% chance to fire off as opposed to 10% for Entropic Chaos.

I love that power! If I do die, well there is always Vengeance for my team mates! I play almost exclusively with large groups. Love it!This new build has the previous bonuses plus 35.8% Energy Defense. Negative Energy Defense is down to 24.7% though, but I think I don't mind that much at all.
Thanks for reading again!

A Blaster build. It is one "squishy" types I can handle, with Defiance at the very least letting me use tier 1 and 2 Primary and tier 1 Secondary attacks if I am Held, Slept, Stunned, etc. I absolutely love the Dual Pistols animations and currently have the character as Ranged Defense softcapped, but will be changing her over to S/L Defense softcapped in I19.
This build is made with the Issue 19 modified Mids'. Probably won't work at all with the regular Mids'.I think my Endurance should be sustainable with non-stop combat, but I am not quite sure. Am I giving up too much mitigation by having my Melee attacks and Melee Stun with such low Accuracy? Any other oddities pointed out appreciated. Only using Incendiary Bullets.
