Anybody know a good way to add purples to this build without gimping it? I still want high defense but not softcapped...

1- What is your goal in adding purples-- are you looking for more global recharge?
2- Define what value "high defense" is for your build.

To be honest, that build already looks kinda gimped, but in the name of defense rather than recharge.

Well i like my S/L Def to be around 35%... Ive posted this build before, everyone said it was fine, what is gimped about it to you?

Gloom and Dark Obliteration are just too good to treat as mules for set bonuses-- it's best to socket them properly. You built for Fire/Cold defense when it really isn't all that important. Too much slamming into the ED cap when an extra socket could be shifted for better results, or socketing could be altered to offer better overall DPS/DPE/Accuracy (KO Blow).

I am not going to change any skills around. But I'll just say this-- look into taking Darkest Night. The skill offers up to 16% defense to all via debuffs. I run that skill on my DM/ELA , a build that doesn't even employ any Kinetic Combats while opting instead for a full suite of offense enhancing purples and 100% global recharge . The end result is that I still have the equivalent of +24% defense to all even against +3s.

Here is some juggling I did really quickly. When Fitness becomes inherent in issue 19, look into taking Darkest Night for sure. Even then, losing some Smashing/Lethal defense in exchange for 16% ToHit Debuff and 21% -damage is well worth the trade off, and ELA is one of the few sets that can handle the endurance consumption.
