Need Help Upgrading My Budget BS/SD Build!

I've just recently returned to the game after several months of absence and first thing I've decided to do is set my favorite scrapper on the path of Incarnates.

The build I'm currently using is a very low budget build I was able to finalize last year with alot of help from the posters here (now slightly modified to accompany the Fitness changes), and what with money not QUITE as difficult to obtain as before, I'm thinking of moving up to a slightly medium-to-high budget build to improve this toon's overall performance... and I could use some help.


As a whole, I'm hoping for something that would improve my overall survivability a bit more. Budget wise, I'm hoping to keep it under 1 billion. I haven't gotten into the game to see if pricing on things have changed, but one of my primary goal is to get my DDR up so I won't instant faceplant against -DEF mobs, the rest I'm fairly open about.

I'm also not set in stone with my choice of powers, so if I did anything wrong here, please feel free to point them out.
