The build is decent enough already. There can be some minor improvements, for example active defense can be slotted with HO to enhance defense debuff resistance, and darkest night can be slotted better such that you can use it more frequently. I made some changes to your slotting below.|

I will probably finish the 4 of LoTG set in Battle Agility just for completion's sake, when I can afford it. Also, once I finish my uncommon rech/heal, I'll probably see if I can squeeze some kind of set bonus into True Grit. |

I'm sure there are more powerful builds out there - mine doesn't use any purples for one - but I'm really, really happy with this build. I took it for its first spin on a 59min itf last night. The only time my end bar moved was when I was running sprint+darkest night (which I forgot to slot, so it had no end red!) in addition to the standard (which I never turn off): deflection, battle agility, AOO, Grant Cover, CJ, Tough & Weave.
And he's defcapped of course. I think my health bar moved 3 times on the whole tf and I was semi-tanking it.
Any thoughts on what, if anything I could to do improve while keeping my defcap and avoiding purples (I'm still relatively poor)? I'm thinking I could throw one of the procs in OwtS for some random, minute PSI res or something. I may also pull the slot out of AD - since I have so much global rech - but the stacked def debuff resist is nice (at least I think it stacks?). Still, I'll have my incarnate +rech for those moments...
