Wanted to check out the new TW set and through in invul with it cause i have seen it always seem like a good set to hold up. So this was my first run through of throwing together a build. Just looking for tips and/or changes. Want him to be an actual tank and hold up but still deal decent dmg.

Try to put in more Reactive Armors into your Resistance powers. At 4 you get +1.25% S/L Def.
Getting to the S/L Def soft-cap (with 1 foe in range) is a worthwhile goal as most attacks have a S/L component and Invul can reach the S/L Resist hard-cap with Tough.
With both the S/L Res HC and Def SC it means when you do get hit (hardly ever) you take bugger all damage (10%).

In powers like Resist Energies/Elements Aegis is a good idea as with 3 slots you get +3.13 F/C Defence.

You've also got some sets that provide Positional Def (Melee, Ranged and AoE). Typically its easier to get TYPED defences on an Invul toon using Reactive Armors/Aegis (see above) in addition to Kinetic Combats (at 4 = +3.75% S/L Def).
Also look at adding the Steadfast Protection Unique (Res/+3% Def [all]). Its not cheap but its not THAT expensive either.

You could alto try putting in Taunt the Mocking instead of the Zingers. At 4 you get ~2.5 S/L Def (I think) which is the numbe rof slots you've currently allocated. If you put in a 5th you get +3.75% F/C Def as well. And 6 slots gets you +7.5% Recharge.
If you need mroe slots Id take the LOTG D/E from CJ as the EndCost is low and the extra defence from CJ you may get better from actual Set Bonuses (or the Steadfast Unique).

Im at work and dont have time to put together a build but have another go with some of those ideas in mind and see what you prefer.
For my Invul toons I aim for S/L RES hard-cap (90%) and S/L DEF soft-cap with 1 foe in range (45%). +Recharge is also good for A) Titan Weapons and B) Dull Pain.

Made some more changes. Little more def, but i feel lost one where the smashing def is higher than the lethal def. Shaved off a couple second of hasten (like 8 sec i think).
