A better question might be, "how is it you're not capped to all 3 positions?"

AoE just hasn't ever been much of an issue. It gets through here and there. It is more of an issue on my MM. The mobs that are giving my MM issues, just aren't getting to my SR.

I had Elude on my DB/SR scrapper and found I rarely ever used it and when I did, it didn't really save me in bad situations (I would either still die or inspiration/teammates save my butt). I also hated the crash.
Elude might be useful for PVP but someone else would confirm that. As for PVE, if you have a power to spare, I would take it just to hold a Kismet +acc or a LoTG +7.5 rech.
OP you kipped Lucky didn't you? lol not LUCKY!!!!
But seriously with aoe def that low when/if you decide to incarnate your guy out your gonna feel it in those trials. Alot of heavy hitting AOE are thrown around in those trial not just from AVs but entire boss spawns as well.
Anyway elude is worthless I think it todays IO age. Especially since SR only needs a few select IOs and the right power picks to soft cap to all 3 positions.
It would be helpful to post your build. If you don't have one planned in Mids' already, Titan Sentinel can extract your build from the game while it is running. It sounds like you may have a lot of set bonuses contributing to defense you don't need. Anything past 45% defense does not help in most situations. Even against defense debuffs, you don't need a buffer that big with Super Reflexes' 95% defense debuff resistance.
If you want to work on it on your own, I have a Super Reflexes template that I share with anyone who needs to see how to efficiently reach 45% defenses.

I think when my Scrapper is done I will have just under 49% melee and ranged defense, and 27.5% AoE defense, with a lot of other non-positional stuff in the teens. I wasn't aiming for anything over 40-45% on ranged and melee, but this is just the way it came out and I'm pretty happy with it.
When you have this kind of defense, what does Elude actually mean to you?
I know I have read before about people skipping it. I'm Claws/SR so endurance just never seems to be an issue.
In your experiences, does random use of Inspirations seem to cover anything that goes wrong?
Also I plan on getting Aid Self, so I have something for a bit of Oh No moments.
