Why are you complaining?
And, where is your build?

As presented, that would play like a MACHINE, and I'd be very curious how the BU,LR,SA,TS alpha performs for ya.The basics: Like all good electric melee builds, you have build up and lightning rod on maximum recharge and synchronized. Very good, well played. You add in Spring Attack, which has the effect of splitting your timing: 26 seconds versus 36 seconds. I'm frankly curious to see how it would run, as I suspect the big alpha would be worth the slowdown, as you will have to take time to beat down bosses anyway. Your single target damage stinks on ice, but I have some thoughts how to boost that up a tad.
Defensively, you're golden: one sm purp from softcap to all, and a crapton of regen and hp's. Although, if played properly as a max pulse damage nuker, this toon would be nearly invincible against anything susceptible to knockdown, and nigh-invincible to everything else. It's maybe not the FASTEST toon, but it is enormous fun.
Oddities: You don't need or want the Blessing in SJ: Yank those two slots and thicken up attacks, specifically, Chain Induction. CI is very misunderstood: It's a ST attack that also finishes off your various wounded, NOT an AOE. Treat it as such and you will realize how awesome it is.
Eradication has nice bonuses, but it's a L30 set: look hard at enhancement boosters for more base, or look at another Obi. Losing E/N for S/L is worth it.
The biggy: Dark pool. Yes, shadow meld is teh sex, but by the time you get it, just go run trials for an incarnate power that does the same thing only much better. This toon is NOT delicate, and you are starving yourself of slots with Soul Storm six slotted out like that.
I would say, you have PLENTY of offense and defense, so dump the soul pool, take conserve power, phys perf, and strength of will with nothing but base slots. Then take the six slots you save and six out havoc, boxing, and high pain tolerance. Hit SoW like it's goin' out of style, it don't hurt nothing but yer end a little and you'll be EVEN TOUGHER.
Oh, also, as I recall, willpower gets not benefit from the 6 percent heal bonus, as that doesn't boost regen. Maybe I'm wrong on that, but I don't think so....
Anyway, just some thoughts, play what ya like, and have fun.
Ok, ok, I admit it, I was curious to see how the mega nuke would look with tweaks:
BU,LR,SA,TS administers roughly 2000 points of AOE (with three! AOE chances to knockdown baked into it) every 34 seconds with this build, the gating factor being Spring Attack. That should kill everything but bosses, which you can then buzzsaw down with reactive-boosted box/havoc/chain in jiffy-quick fashion.
Defense is still fine, with the -to-hit of Rise included you're close on to 40 percent S/L and nice and high on everything else.
Just for your consideration:

wow thanks for the build update, i absolutly love it, yeah the aoe attack chain is immense it clears all lieuts minions and leaves the bosses to finish off easily, the SoW addition is nice, also another misunderstood power from myself!
i took x ray eyes because of the debuff wen soloing, not sure if thats such a good def debuff to take but will look into it more, apart from that the whole build is perfect and as he stands hes pretty invincible right now
just a quick question do u believe its any good at soloing AV'S?
just a thought
thanks for the help appreciate it!

It's a pretty small debuff, it won't really help you all that much in that regard.|

Im not going to start and complain that everytime i ask for help on these forums i get jack all back ( in polite terms) even though i would love to help others my experience on this game even after nearly 4 years gaming is still a little dicey.
my actual question on this subject is ive made a pretty decent willpower/elec melee scrapper, i actually have 2 questions, can i get softcap defense dam types? and second question, i got my regen rate up to 744%, can i get it any further without sacrificing any other sets?
my end seems pretty good and with a total of 2 pbaoe attacks and an aoe every4-5 seconds its a real monster, i intend on this specific set being my namesake generally because its got all i need even can do a bit of self farming once in a while.
i will post my build here and let you guys tinker and see what you come up with, with 35% def to most attacks and 744% regen rate i think it will survive alot even in incarnate trials, again i need a second third or 100th opinion on this to get the most out of this build,
i appreciate anyone who takes their time out to give me any info tips or just good old fashioned help
