I've been tweaking the build, and I plan to put another set of K-Crash into one of my attacks for the 7.5% recharge bonus. I'll look at Jab; the character isn't in his 40's yet so I like to have a fast attack. I'll reconsider when he makes Patron.|

Don't take Jab! It's junk. Between Punch, Haymaker, Burn, Footstomp, PPP AOEs and possibly Air Superiority (mmm!) you have many more attacks than you can ever use. That leads me onto... Take Mu Lightning in this build! It does a lot more damage than Jab, Punch or Boxing. In fact it does twice the base damage of Jab. So when you get rid of Jab you have opened up more slots for this! It can be given set bonuses with +6.25% recharge quite nicely, which doesn't compete so much with the rest of your 5% recharges. That leads me onto... You have exceeded the 5% recharge limit. 4x Crushing Impact, Doctored Wounds & Obliteration. I'd highly recommend Tough and probably Weave too. You can get away with less slots in your resist shields by not using a full Endurance and instead going for Resist/Recharge. You lose 0.4% resistance and 0.04 end/second but you save a slot by doing so. Acrobatics isn't really needed so much. I think from memory just even one of those expensive Obliterations is more costly than the knockback IO and this will save you choices and endurance here again. Ummm that's what I see so far  |
Also, I don't do Tough and Weave (but I will when i19 hits). I find that taking 3 powers for more survivability is painful, especially when /Fire has a huge benefit to dying. I usually just carry purples and haven't had a problem running +1/x8 at level 38.
My guides:Dark Melee/Dark Armor/Soul Mastery, Illusion Control/Kinetics/Primal Forces Mastery, Electric Armor
"Dark Armor is a complete waste as a tanking set."
