What is the goal for this build? You seemed to have put the most expensive IOs in random areas for no reason. You can easily make a DB/WP build costing 10% or less of your current proposed build and have it be far more survivable with more HP, regen, defense, and recharge; all without having to buy a single pvp IO. Please answer the question in red and i can offer a better critique of the build.

Thanks for the input. My goal is surviavbility so I think on a /wp +regen is the way to go with some +def +res splashes in the lower areas like Toxic, and fire. I do not think I need much +recov because I have a cardiac Alpha slot and that seems to help my end control greatly. Currently With my build I can solo +0x8 but I guess for a brute that is not to good. Any advice would be greta considering I just returned after a 2.5 year break.

Okay, first, with DB/WP you don't need Hasten. In fact, it's a waste! No really. It is. Blinding Feint -> Attack Vitals -> Repeat for Single Targets, want more AOE then fit in Sweep.

When I was using the Sweep Combo (I don't anymore) in normal PvE...

Blinding Feint -> Attack Vitals -> Sweep Combo -> Repeat, didn't need any +RCH what so ever.

Blinding Feint -> Attack Vitals -> Repeat for ST's is easy to obtain.

And Hasten does nothing for your Secondary and so far nothing for your Incarnate Abilities.

This is my DB/WP Scrapper build, easy enough to use it for a Brute build (actually I'd say it's even better as the Brute can slot in another Performance Shifter Proc in Superior Conditioning...which I really wish Scrappers got instead of Conserve Power).

I'd say use this build to use to reference for your DB/WP on what to slot for. I'm not saying it's the BEST build, but it's worked quite well for me. The +Regen is basically a wash, go for +Def, +HP, and enough +RCH to run BF-Attack Vitals, and you will be golden.

Spiritual Alpha to increase your HP and healing even more, and then grab Rebirth +Heal/+Regen Destiny for even more survival (I found it to be better than Barrier myself). With this build you won't run out of end either.

Obviously you want Sweep Combo, and look to want a travel power (Ninja Run really does fit my concept perfectly), and I use Hover for verticle and it was handy on soloing Silver Mantis.

I also went with the Reactive Proc (common I know...but it's -resist plus the -resist procs are just nice, and the added fire damage...wheee).
