Which scrapper should sip from the Well?

So, I have a number of scrapper builds fast approaching 50, if not already there, and I was curious which one would really shine the most with Incarnate powers. Which one you fine people think I should focus on:

Claws/Willpower
Spines/Dark Armor
Broadsword/Shield
Kinetic Melee/Shield
Katana/Electric
Dark Melee/Shield

I pretty satisfied with all of their costumes/concepts/etc. I pretty much exclusively team, mostly PuGs and TFs. No PvP. My favorite scrapper turn-on is surviving a team wipe and avenging my fallen comrades.

Thanks for any feedback!

Well which one are you having the most fun withh right now?

That is how I chose my fire/FA brute to be an incarnate.

I kinda have fun with all of them.

My Claws/Willpower gets a lot of playtime. The Steampunk pack drove me to rediscover my BS/Shield. I recently dusted off my old Spines/DA and rekindled some interested in her. The only one that really hasn't gotten much love is my Katana/Elec, but I love his look and concept.

Well, one thing to consider is wich one will get the biggest benefit from drinking. For instance my FM/SD is awesome but he only has 1 power with > than 60% end reduction and 1 more that's at 50% ish, all the others are 33% or less so he's gonna be running up the cardiac tree.

Kat/elec, but I'm biased. The dark would do well too, as reactive functions beautifully with damage auras.

Truthfully, all of them will benefit nicely from Incarnates. I suspect, Spines/Dark Armor will have the most dramatic improvement. Notorious for endurance challenges, Cardiac will make things simpler, but as you work up the tiers, the damage resistance of Cardiac will begin to dramatically affect your survivablity.

As with every build, Reactive will start to boost the damage out put via resistance debuffs and dot (I recommend focusing on DoT).

Despite the popularity of Musculature, I actually recommend Cardiac for Electric Armor. While Electric has minimal endurance concerns, the resistance buff to Electric goes a long way.

I ran into this same problem. So many alts. Who to make an incarnate? The answer was all of them. Just pull a name out of a hat to see who is first.

I had to make a character with becoming an incarnate in mind at the beginning. For some reason the majority of scrapper primaries just don't feel incarnateish to me.

I'll put the vote in for Katana/ELA.

Like mentioned, lots of Energy Damage in the late game content.

That aside however, it's a powerset I just don't see in use often. So it'll be a bit unique amongst all those Shield Scrappers.

I'd also go with the Cardiac. Lets you not need to rely on Power Sink as an END REC tool (if you don't already all the better) and more as a END Sapping Defense power, and the +Resistance will be a bit better.

2nd nomination goes to the Spines/Dark. Cardiac to help with those end needs, not a build I see often, Cardiac adds to the resists, and you get more AOE. And you can have some decent ST DPS if you build for it.

There's another way to look at this question. Instead of asking what do I want to become an incarnate... One might ask, what do I want to use to play through the incarnate content? Afterall, you're looking at a pretty big commitment toward doing 20-30 trials... maybe more.

Not knowing how your toons are built I can't say which one is best, but I'd recommend playing something with extreme survivabilty. And I recommend Single Target damage over AoE damage since the current trials seem to be more about killing a single target at a time instead of clearing a map.
