Well that certainly did not format for correctly for me. I don't have time to look at the build in depth at the moment but this will help you get answers. if folks can actually read it 
Just a quick thought, since you didn't take thunderclap, screech, or Total Focus to stack with it there is no point putting the energy manipulator in LS. Instead stick the devastation chance to hold in there since it is 15% instead of 10%
This is simply the reposted build, i haven't made any changes to it:

Thanks Dragynn. I still cant figure out what happened with the formatting. I appreciate the help with that. Yea I meant to put the chance for hold in there. (I actually made the build at 3:00 am when I awoke from a dead sleep cuz I had a dream about the build lol)
Just a few observations on the /sonic side:
Screech is a really great power that you're missing. It adds -20% damage resistance that lasts the longest of the sonic blasts, AND the stun. Just too useful to pass for me.
I happen to like Siren's Song but with Freezing Rain, it's not gonna be as useful (also Storm in general has several powers that will wake sleepers en masse).
Shout is extremely slow and could be skipped and not missed as you'll have plenty to do. I also like it, and have it, but rarely use it as I'm Kin and just don't have the time usually.
And as you're aiming for purples, try work in the Apocalypse neg energy proc into either Shriek or Scream (pref. Shriek); it makes a big difference.
Defiant EU
Quaver: Kinetics/Sonic Defender
Semiquaver: Sonic/Kinetics Corruptor
I also have a Storm/Sonic/Power Mastery defender although my build goal was Ranged Defense not Recharge (build is posted below). I can definitely agree with the above poster and Screech - fast animation / good stun effect and in my case works with Total Focus.

It's a mezz or be mezzed world out there sometimes. A fine single target stun/hold can be very worthwhile.

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
I am gonna have to rethink skipping the mezzes. will post a new build in the next couple days.

I'd suggest keeping it for the set bonuses at the very least. Ranged attack set bonuses are pretty good.

Here's my planned build....probably around 1B. Cheap (compared to most on here) but fun/effective. Energy Def + Energy Res on these new trials is quite handy, when the 9CU's to-hit doesn't go over 9,000 that is.

To be honest I am not certain that Soulbound Allegiance will proc in Tornado, although it probably will. But even if it does, you would get more damage out of Tornado by slotting it for damage than you would with the proc. Based on the way the proc works in other pseudopets, there will be a chance for the proc to fire on you when summon Tornado, and then the proc has a chance to fire and effect Tornado every 10 seconds. But the proc only has a 16% chance to fire. Assuming the proc does fire in Tornado, that results in an average of (80% damage boost for 10 seconds: 3*.166*6.67*2*10*.8)=52 additional damage. (Assuming the time when it hits nothing balances the times it hits multiple things). This results in a 12% damage boost, so you are better off just slotting Tornado for the damage.|

I generally find 8 points of KB protection is sufficient, but if you feel you need 12, go for it.
I would stick some endurance reduction in FA rather than the chance for build up. It has a 5% chance to fire which means on average it will fire every 200 seconds. And in my experience, it usually doesn't fire at times that are useful for me. And FA is expensive to run (more than hurricane). Also thanks to FR you don't really need the +accuracy or the +to-hit so I would probably drop it since really all you're getting is the +perception, so you can just stick the +perception proc in amplify.

If you're planning on putting this much into a build and building for a defense, there should be a steadfast protection 3% defense IO in there somewhere (it's only 1 alignment merit). I would also go for the Clarion Destiny and drop acrobatics eventually although I'm not sure what I would pick up, and you would need to find 2 IOs for KB protection (1 in SS is easy, the other one you would need to play around with more).
Also, I'm not a fan of Positrons Blasts in FR just for the recharge bonus, especially since you want FR up as often as possible and 26% recharge is WAY too low. If you're intending on fighting tougher enemies or teaming, I would also encourage the Achilles Heel proc. See the link in my sig for more Freezing Rain information.

Draggynn - Good call on the SF:3%, I'll be tossing it in tough. On the endurance issues, between accolades, cardiac tier3 alpha and PowerSink, I should be more than fine. I will probably drop the last proc in FR and put a generic recharge IO in it's place to have it up every mob on those steam-roll teams.
I started putting Acro on most of my squishes to shrug off a hold, and it's made me enjoy the toons more since I'm always aggressively charging in and tossing debuffs down first thing (when I play with my local group of 2 or 3 other squishes).
Go forth and...yell at things, and blow them into walls. Err...yeah.
OK so if I dropped FA from the level 49 slot what could I replace it with?
If I dropped the KB IO from Tough where could I put the slot for the most benefit?
I also replaced the chance for build up in tornado with the Soulbound Allegiance: Acc/Dam/Rech.

Well, a lot of this will of course depend on playstyle, and if you find you don't need the endurance all the better. It frees up more slots for other things. I assure you though this would not be enough endurance for me, but then I also run 2 leadership toggles and have more recharge than you do, so if you can get buy with this, all the better. I will stand by my prediction though, that as you work towards this build you will be looking for little ways to eek out more endurance.|

Storm Rider is currently in her low levels but I want to work up a build to work towards so I can start funding it as I level. My goal here is to get a level 50 defender and Purple out a toon. I have never done either.
The Build Summary:
This build has enough recharge to perma Hasten and Freezing Rain(actually off by about 1 second of running 2 patches argh! lol) As well as running 2 Lightning Storms/Tornados. Defense actually leaves something to be desired but I figure Hurricane will cover this problem solo and teaming will make it less an issue. Oddly enough I was able to cap my S/L resistance lol. Wierd. anyways thats cool.
The Request:
Help me to optimize this build. There are a few power choices I threw in cuz I didnt know what else to take (ie. Maneuvers, force of nature). Same with a bit of slotting. The core seems to be solid but help me shore up some of the fringe decisions.
Edited: Uhhh not sure what happened with posting the build. sorry for that mess.
