Demons/Storm Questions

I'm working through Praetoria with a new toon, and it's been a while since I've played. It's not going terribly, but it's starting to get a little harder. Part of that is probably because I haven't put too much effort into getting enhancements, but I'm also wondering how good the basic build is. Any advice?

Basic concept is an undead jester, by the name of the Dead Punchline. Not the greatest concept, admittedly, but it was fun making the costume.

Powers are as follows.

Summon Demonlings
2 dam, 2 acc, 1 end, 1 empty

Lash
1 dam, 1 acc, 2 empty

Enchant Demon
A Empty

Summon Demons
1 Acc, 2 Dam

Gale
A Acc

O2 Boost
1 Heal, 1 Empty

Snowstorm
1 Slow, 1 Empty

Fly
A Fly

Assault
A Empty

I didn't really plan this out, I basically just tossed things around that looked all right. How suboptimal is it, and how can I make it better?

EDIT: Oh, and I do have some respects on my account, thanks to various veterans rewards. Just in case that wasn't clear.

You don't need to respec, atleast not yet, keep going till you can atleast get some SOs in there and then think about it.

O2 boost, until you get hurricane and sleet is all you have to keep your pets going, so a few slots there is good. otherwise throw the rest into demons pets and keep only the natural slot on the upgrade power and on Gale.

You can't really go that wrong with lower level slot placement, especially if you are willing to respec later.

I just wanted to point out there's a demon/storm thread on the first page of the MM forum. if you want to see what's been recently discuss.

It looks like you're 14 (maybe 15), just make sure your next power selection is Freezing Rain. "It gets better".

As Deacon_NA said, Freezing Rain is a real game changer for /Storm.

A waste of slots in my opinion. I put an Accuracy into the single target attacks, and 1 Accuracy & 1 Endurance Reduction in the cone. The personal attacks are valuable for their -Resistance effect, not their damage.

Also, I probably wouldn't bother with Leadership powers; Storm and Demon Summon have too many good powers to grab. I'd have gotten Steamy Mist instead of Assault; it offers fire resistance and confusion protection, and is a good spot to stick a Karma or Steadfast -kb IO if you aren't picking up Combat Jumping or Hover before then.
