I try to make a build that covered as much as possible it's heavy in recharge 195% w/ Hasten Perma but falls just a bit short of getting IW up all the time. has over 200% end Recovery. it's great against anything psi and has good resit against most other attacks def isn't that great but has some in all areas, the reactive DoT works wonders with all my AOE attacks, I have the heal + regen for Destiny slot. it's nice but not sure it's the best choice for my build. I know it's an expensive build but I already own 99% of it just wonder what improvements any of you may make.

If this is a lvl 45+ only build ... Spiritual t3 and t4's readily put IW in perma territory, you've not mentioned any Alpha choices at all, oversight?

Edit: not mentioned but I'm now seeing the Musculature choice.

Felt that Musculature Radial Paragon was the best choice for my build the Damage boost is nice but it also boost my defense and tohit debuffs and help my end recovery some plus boost my immobilize. Spiritual is tempting but it has little effect on the other Incarnate powers. I think i get more bang for my buck with Musculature Radial Paragon. I'd be more likely to drop my rebirth for ageless, but it so nice to have a self heal for once.
