Put 2 recharge SO's into Active Defense, and ctrl-click it to set it to autofire. Now your mez protection is perma. There is no need for Acrobatics.

To me you definitely want more than 2 SO's worth in Active Defence. 2 puts it at exactly 120 seconds recharge with 120 seconds duration.
Any kind of recharge debuff and you're in mez-town.
With SO slotting I usually 3-slot any click mez protection power, just to cover rech debuffs.
With IOs, 2 level 50 common recharges is fine. Especially if you've got global rech set bonuses.
Good points; looking back, I was actually basing my response out of what 2 lvl 50 IOs can give.
3 recharge SOs are definately safest for leveling.
High-end shield builds benefit from 2-3 def/recharge hami-Os, for def debuff resist.

Thanks a ton guys this will definatly help me out. Didnt know you could perma active defense guess i just wasnt paying attention to the recharge time.
Hey im a battle axe shield defense brute need help with Knockback/hold protection. Anyone got a guide or just some info on stopping knockbacks, i noticed all we get is a click to get out of the stuff but i want a perma and its pissing me off every time i get knocked back.
Should i get acrobatics or no (went combat jump+super jump anyways)
