I seldom tell people things like this, but if you don't already have this character leveled, go with Regen instead.
Defense is laughably useless in PvP. Everyone slots for so much accuracy that they punch through defense based characters like tissue paper.
KM/Regen is actually a solid combo for a melee character, while the things that make the new Energy Aura so nice are useless in PvP. No one is going to stay in melee range of you long enough to fuel your recharge or get drained to add to your defense.
Now, if you're planning on fight clubbing with this character, you may be alright. That would be melee vs melee fights. In zone or arena PvP with mixed opponents, you're likley to get shredded pretty quickly. Especially when you consider the number of people that have Aim in their builds, and the ease of adding Tactics and accuracy bonuses to a build.
And at first glance, though I'm not a PvP build expert, your build isn't that great.
You'd be much better off going to the PvP forum and ask there instead. I'll warn you though, your first response is probably going to be along the lines of "reroll as Regen" or "lolmelee"

Yeah ask in the PvP forums, but fwiw, this build is terrible on many levels even for PvE, besides costing over 9000 billion.
Just made this build on mids, would really appreciate some feedback and any suggestions on how to better the build. Feel free to post your build if you have a better one. Thanks again
