Plant/Psi respec

Good morning all, I revisited one of my favorite toons from long ago (Plant/Psi dom) and realized his build was a total frankenslotted mess. No hasten, roots slotted for immob (no damage whatsoever), a Force Feedback +rech IO in Carrion Creepers (useless now, right?), Fly Trap was slotted weirdly, Drain Psyche was slotted for End mods, no healing... Anyway, you get my drift.

I would like to give him the deluxe spa treatment and respec him. I'm not sure on what to focus on. Should I go max recharge? Should I focus on softcapping him? Both?

Also, does anyone have a build handy? I can post my current one when I get home but to be honest, it's such a mess (in my estimation) that the final build will look very different. I'm not expecting anyone to create one from scratch, but if you have one, please share.

Thanks,

Edit: Forgot to add, he's 41 right now, picked up Sleet from the APP and is now sitting in Talos as a rogue. Most likely will go full hero for the A-merits and the yummy LotG 7.5%s.

Here is a Plant/Psi/Fire spec I have been working on. Aimed for decent recharge and ranged defense.

I definitely see this as a ranged toon. If anything escapes your Seeds, you still have Roots (Aoe immobilize), Spoors (aoe sleep) and Carrion Creepers to keep enemies at range. Just don't use roots and spoors together as roots has a dot that will wake sleep. You also have Vines (aoe hold) on a longer cooldown.

For Psi you do need to come in occasionally to refresh Drain Psyche but do it when everything is locked down.

I tried for recharge and ranged defense, and it seems like the more you have of one, the less you can get of the other. This one comes in at 27.8 ranged def (I heard getting to 27 was very helpful), and 148.8 recharge, which gives it perma dom at 80.4 seconds out of 90, and perma Creepers at 113.65 out of 120, but not quite perma Hasten at 129.37 out of 120.
I could get Hasten much closer to 120 but would lose big chunks of ranged defense doing it.

It includes one purple set which I felt was needed to make Rain of Fire near perma (17.72 out of 15), and also the Contageous Confusion proc.

Some like melee powers on Doms as they do slightly more damage than the ranged modifyer, but I prefer to keep my enemies far, far away.

Rich, who doesn't like Green Phoenix's name but likes the feel of it. Jade Phoenix would have been perfect, but was taken. Any suggestions?
