Spines/FA IO Build Critique + Burn Question

First scrapper I've wanted to IO. Really enjoy spines with the on edge feel of FA. Experienced scrappers out there, does this build look like it has surviveability as far as scrappers go? I didn't include burn in the build because I heard it causes the mobs to scatter plus my main source of dmg is a cone so I wont be in the middle at all times. I'm wondering if burn crits?! If so I may want to fit it in!? And FE, seemed very beneficial for fire attacks, worth it otherwise??

Thanks in advance for the help!!

I went for melee defense followed by smash/lethal, recharge and a splash of damage... here is what I got:

(for those who don't have mids readily available, my desired stats are as followed with toggles: Melee 34.1%, S/L 28.5%, Rch 121.25% and Dmg 19.5%)
