Rad/Sonic/Mace or Rad/Sonic/Elec for team play

I have a Rad/Sonic that I solo with against AVs and whatnot. But I want to use one of his other builds for a more team supportive play style. Ideally, I want to have Leadership pool with Vengeance and Mutation-Fallout-Burnout (Burnout for double the fun when an ally dies.. or two).

So back to my original question, what Epic/Patron pool do I go with? I use Mace for my softcapping of defenses on my solo build, and I believe it could be useful for a team environment too. But I really like what Powersink and Electric Fences brings to the table. Could anyone give me suggestions and possible builds that they've used that would work in this scenario? Feel free to suggest which incarnates to go with too.

Thanks

It's sometimes fruitless to request build assistance without showing your own build, so here it is currently as Elec Mastery.

One of the things I potentially will enjoy will be following a death of an ally (assuming one who is near a mob) is to hit vengeance (softcap my defense in everything and provide damage boost), hit fallout, hit em pulse, hit burnout, hit Power Sink (reload endurance due to em pulse's and burnout's endurance/recovery hate), hit fallout again (potentially about 1800 points in damage now), hit EM Pulse again (mag 6-8 or 8-10 if my choking cloud hits hold for 43 seconds just in case the mob isn't dead yet), hit Mutation, then chew on blues so my toggles don't go away.

This guy is perma hasten/AM/LR with one purple insp away from range softcapped defense (i intend to hover out of combat area with this toon, unless I am in vengeance mode, as mentioned above) - granted my radiation infection will be having a -53% to-hit, so a purple insp may not be necessary. Anyways, critique away:
