Hm, I would say that change of priority is not ideal. First of all, damage buffs are almost useless to brutes due to their low base damage - consider that you have at all times a 120-150% damage buff from fury; just how much of a difference do the 16% you picked up from sets really make?
Secondly, defense is more useful than resists and should be a bit higher on your list of priorites - I recommend trying to build for capped s/l defenses, since that will protect you from 90% of all attacks. Aiming for 32,5% defense will mean you can cap yourself with a small purple inspiration, affording your build more flexibility regarding recharge.
Speaking of recharge - if recharge was your main goal, your build is conspicuously lacking hasten.
And the one thing you really need to take into account in your build and missing from your list is good endurance. /Fire is a very endhungry secondary, and with the build you posted, you will find yourself running out of steam quickly. Build for more recovery, and slot your toggles for more end reduction - especially Blazing Aura, that one really needs all the end reduction it can get.
Cremate isn't a very good attack, I would drop it for Incinerate, which is one of Fire's best attacks.
Keeping all that in mind, this is the modified build I came up with:
