Two things stand out for me. You skipped both Combustion and Lightning Field, two very important aggro management tools that give you nice damage as well. Some things that seem odd... Why Aegis when you're going for S/L def? Fire/Cold isn't really that common to warrant that. I would get Reactive Armor instead, and aim for the softcap.
I went in a different direction with my Elec/Fire(positional 32.5% defense and Spiritual) but I won't really expand on that since you seem pretty set on S/L, which is pretty understandable.

Auroxis - Emp/Rad/Power Defender Pylon Video Soloing an AV
Pelvic Thunder - SS/Elec/Mu Brute
Sorajin - Elec/Nin Stalker
Neuropain - Sonic/Mental/Elec Blaster
I guess my reasoning for the fire/cold def, was to shore it up in case I find a repeatable mission to do.
I thought postional would be a good way to go, but thought it was easier to use the Kinetic Combats a few times and save slots.
Something I just remembered was that I have the vet reward that gives me an extra 5% to any pill I take, so a small purple nets me 17.5% def across the board for 2 or 3 minutes. Which made me think, If i can get my defenses to a minimum of 28%, I would be soft capped with just one baby purple.
So I tweaked the build a bit. I would be soft capped to everything except psi with a baby purple.
Also leaving me with 84.6 % S/L resist and 90% Nrg Resist, and 60% to Fire/Cold/Psi. That made me fairly comfortable.
As to why not take Combustion and Lightning Field. I feel Combustion is sluggish to activate and feels sub-par in the damage, and I like having the 3 sword attacks for concept reasons.
Thanks for your imput.

Small thing: that percent increase will give you 13.125% for a small purple, not 17.5% (I think you increased it by 50% instead of 5%). You would need 31.875% to be cappable with one small purple.

Didn't realize that. What happens when the cob webs are still up in the brain pan and I am thinking of stuff at work.
Thanks for the info.

Honestly?
I'd skip Maneuvers and take Lightning Field instead (you could even recolour it red).
Lacking an Aggro Aura isn't good for your teammates health, even with Fire Sword Circle.
This is a build I was hoping to use for my current main tank and long term Incarnate project.
He is the first tank that I have stuck with since the year CoV came out.
I have done the RSF, LGTF, Apex, Tin Mage, ITF, and Rush the Rikti raids. And with the great teams I have been with, have felt very tough and durable.
And as the new Incarnates unlock I hope to see much use out of him.
But any help in tweaking the build would be great. As the build stands, I could actually slot it this way. As I have all the set pieces somewhere.
