I'm always drawn to Kin/Sonic builds, one of my favorite combos.
I'm just going to make some bullet points.
* Siphon Power and Fulcrum Shift really don't need End Reduction, especially with Transference up every ~10 seconds.
* Entropic Chaos in Shriek - are you using this for the heal proc? EC is inferior to Decimation in just about every way, except it's cheaper. You do have enough accuracy bonuses and to-hit buffs to compensate for the weak accuracy of the EC set (23% acc)
* 2 end mods in sb is quite generous for your teammates. Feel free to cut back to 1 if you'd rather use that slot elsewhere.
* Rectified Reticle in Amplify and Tactics is odd unless you're pursuing s/l def. I don't see any evidence of building up s/l def. I'd slot in either Adjusted Targeting or Gauss.
* I'm not a fan of the regen proc, especially on a low hp squishy. I'd advise a Miracle proc or put in 2 more Numi IOs to get the +hp buff.
* For 3 slotting Stamina, I'm a fan of 3 Perf Shifters, including the proc.
* I'd use an LOTG Def/Rch (very cheap) instead of the Heal/Rch in Veng.
* I'd get a Stealth IO somewhere, preferably Sprint.
You built up some decent recharge and your contribution to "steamroller" teams will be significant. The type of team where Tank grabs aggro, troller locks down mobs, etc, where you'll take little direct fire. Since you didn't build up any defense to speak of, on some speed teams, you will likely take significant damage if team buffs aren't helpful (e.g. Cold or FF Shields). Still, overall, good stuff.
Global = Hedgefund (or some derivation thereof)
thanks for the advice!
Here is one I'm considering using on my kin/sonic who just hit 50, designed for end game use so high (~38%) ranged and energy defense. I'm not entirely satisfied with it, no soft capping of defense, but I'm not sure how to get there short of going redside for Scorpion Shield and trying for smash/lethal defense capping.
I'm open to suggestions on it.
