recently finished this build and need a critique. I also was wondering if anyone could help me get sl/l/r def up to softcap without losing any recharge or regeneration from DS. Please help me any way possible.

That build isn't S/L softcapped because half of the defense from Stealth suppresses when attacked. I would take CJ instead which also makes you more maneuverable. I can't find a way to softcap S/L/R without losing rech, though.

It's still pretty impressive that you got this close on a Blaster, which does not get good mods for Tough/Weave/APP shield.

Try working from this, if you like of course. s/l/e capped and 1.14% short of soft capped range, no stealth so you don't have to deal with suppression. I like hover since you do have range defense, just makes things easier. Oh and you didn't lose recharge and if you can find two slots you won't lose it. You can get more out of this build still but it's closer to what you're looking for.
