First question I have to ask is what are your goals? Your numbers appear to be a bit all over the place and even with vigor your end drain seems a bit high. I looks like at first you were trying to go for Energy/Negative Energy then you attempted to pick up ranged too. Also, did you pick up Leviathan up for thematic reasons? Lastly, I don't know about skipping thaw. Yes I know with iPowers we don't have to worry about it as much but if you plan on exemplaring its a very nice power to keep around.
Dreaded Wail hits things freakin' hard.. i like to hit things freakin' hard... so.. id go Wail... SAVE THE WAILS!!!! - Solar_Lunata
I was aiming for around 30% M/R/AoE defense though I ended up with more ranged than I was expecting - just want to stay in that range so I can softcap myself with a small purple. I took Leviathan for theme but I could work with most of the APPs so it doesn't really matter.
I figured most people would say skipping Thaw was a bad idea but my main is a Sonic/ and I literally never use Clarity, I can always respec into it if I feel I need it (don't need Stealth that badly).
Getting close to 50 on my water blaster and looking for some tips to finalize my build
Survivability and support are my top concerns, utility second, and damage third. I went for more rounded defense rather than softcapping just range. APP is Leviathan but I'm open to others if you feel they will help me more.
Oh, and I have Overwhelming Force slotted in Steam Spray but it never shows up when I look at the build for whatever reason:
