Hey guys.
As my Fire/SD scrapper is getting to higher levels (currently 43), I am more and more falling in love with it. I am primarily a Tanker player but this guy is just so much fun to play.

So, as I get near level 50, I am starting to think about IOing him out. I already have 5 LoTG +7,5% recharge but other than that, I am not thinkinh about getting the very expensive IOs, EXCEPT the +3% defense PvP IO. I don't have the influence nor time to get the other PvP IOs or the very rare purple IOs. Well, I do but that's reserved for my main (Tanker).

So, with that in mind, I've tried to plan my IO build. I'd like input from more experienced Scrapper players.
I tried to build for defense cap (duh!) and for extra ACC (I am kinda obsessed with not missing) and for extra recovery and HP/regen.
I went with Aid Self instead of Hasten (the old debate I guess). What made me decide on Aid Self was the extra survivabilty, one more place to use Numina's set and also Hasten might have given me End issues.
As for Alpha Slots, I haven't made up my mind yet, but I am seriously considering +45% Damage Very Rare Alpha.


What do you guys think? Is this the way to go, or should I have done it differently?
Again, I am not a scrapper player, I am a Tanker player and I am used to being as tough and survivable as I can be and also playing very agressively and scrapper-locking myself


Any suggestions? All comments are appreciated.
Thanks all!
