A little help with a Spines/WP Scrapper

I've been working on my Spines/WP scrapper, trying to end up with a build that is at least Smash/Lethal softcapped with the high regen/recovery that /WP is famous for. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble getting the defense without making hefty trade offs in other areas, like splitting the Scrapper ATO, taking melee attacks from secondary pools and slotting Brawl for places to put Kinetic Combats, and frankenslotting to the point where I worry I'm not getting enough recharge and damage. I was hoping that the build experts could give me a hand, Spines/WP is a little beyond my limited experience. I'm trying to avoid PvP and Purple sets as much as possible, though lower level sets are fine - I have an AE farmer that has me basically swimming in Reactive Armors and Eradications. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Barbed is getting looked at btw so it will probably be worth picking up. Here's an S/L build that does involve getting Scrapper ATOs and making them superior however it does not have maneuvers and the only real set mule is boxing. This is probably what I'll do with my Spines WP scrapper.
