So many strange choices that I can't make sense out of.
This is what I'm almost at right now. Flight is there for concept reasons, as is my selection of Pyre instead of Soul but you might be able to use some of the general slotting choices I have made to help you. As for your endurance issues, I have only viewed your final build which you said you were leaning towards, but slotting Consume for End Mod might help, considering that is its purpose. Having it well slotted with a very high recharge will refill you quite easily and solves all the end issues.
Roughly speaking you gain ~25% s/l defence and lose nothing significant.

Hmm. Keeping in mind that I want to stick with 33's so I can exemp down to 30 and not start suddenly faceplanting, so I can't use purple sets. Going with something similar to yours, but with my preferred powers, IO requirements, and budget, I get:

Haymaker build 1 (all procs active in mids): 563.6 Build 2: 617.7
Knockout Blow build 1: 1302.8 Build 2: 1340.9 (Really? 6 slot Crushing vs 4 slot Kinetic...? Both at minimum level, so a 10 level lead for Crushing)
Burn Build 1: 850.6 Build 2: 808.7 (Well at least that makes sense, 6 slot oblit vs 3 slot ATO)
Footstomp Build 1: 519.3 Build 2: 518 (It's the Force Feedback eating a slot that cost it)
Gloom Build 1: 620.4 Build 2: 678.4 (Same set, makes sense with higher damage buff. Still not sure where I got 55% more damage from, though)
Dark Oblit: 332 vs 347.3
Fairly close on damage, with a slight edge to the new build. So it comes down to whether 20% S/L beats 3% E/N, 5% haste, and 14% psi resist. And the answer is, yeah almost undoubtedly. So, I think this is what I'm going with, thanks. Anyone have any additional advice?
ETA: Changed my mind a bit again, 5 slotted the ATO, changed about half the text above to reflect that then got bored.
Oh, and the explanation for the earlier weird slotting was playing whack-a-mole... if I put in this set here, I can drop these two def sets, then use the slots to replace the other set bonus I lost, and...and...and...yeah. Clearly it didn't work that well.
Just an FYI. Purple sets and PvP sets exemplar all the way down to level 10, even if they are level 50 IOs.
Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.
If you mysteriously gain 55% damage, check your settings on Fury and Rage

A lot of purples can very easily be downgraded for really a trivial loss. With diminishing returns to +recharge you are unlikely to feel the difference between 10% and 6.25% with that much recharge and the spiritual Alpha. It'll save you a fortune.

ETA: Now leaning toward a third build at the bottom:
Hi, I'm looking for help deciding between two pve builds for my SS/FA brute, and also any suggestions for where I could improve whichever build I end up going with. At the moment I'm looking at these two builds:
IO's are listed at minimum level. I actually plan to go with level 30-33 io's, for lower level content. I'm aiming for a build that is overall sturdy in pretty much all circumstances, and trying to squeeze as much damage output as I can out around that. I'd also like to avoid too much reliance on click powers, at least ones with recharge longer than duration. The biggest problem I have with both builds is horrendous end use, but I can't see a way around that and fit the defenses I want to have. Currently only have T3 Spiritual, not sure I want to plan the build around incarnate abilities beyond that. I'm avoiding purples and pvp sets, although I think the second build, while stylistically my preference, may need them to be viable.

Anyway, that's what I'm looking at, and I just can't figure out which way to jump. Any suggestions?
ETA: Just realized, if I went purple with the 2nd build, it'd be less useful for running lower level content. Doh. I dunno, then.
And I'm now leaning towards a third build that goes with something of the second's purple munching combined with the first's faceplanting against psi and toxic. The strengths are that by dropping to 20% S/L and E/N, I can leave Combat Jumping and Maneuvers turned off, and spare a slot out of each of them, I've also worked a tiny bit of psi def and res in, but not much. Higher global rech, obviously, and higher dps slotting in most attack powers, with some extra procs thrown in. If anyone has any advice for mid-price improvements or suggestions I'd be thrilled. I like where this is going, but I'm not sure it'll be quite sturdy enough to run high difficulty solo, or survive in iTrials.
