Three-second look:
Assault needs MAYBE two -cost enhancements.
Repair honestly doesn't need any. Try a rech enhancement or two.
You have tons of defense powers, and many of them have LotG parts, but none have the +7.5% global recharge piece, which is extremely useful.
Remove one flight IO from Fly. Even with Afterburner on, you're so far over the cap, the second piece is literally doing nothing.
Health would probably do better with one of the unique pieces from the Numina's or Miracle sets.
The Numina's unique piece in Vengeance, and the Panacea proc, are both contingent on having dead allies. Either one does far better in an auto power like Heal.
Upgrade and Equip don't need two -cost IOs each.
You have Aid Self slotted a fair bit for -interrupt. You might want to look into the I24 changes to the Medicine pool. I *think* they make Aid Self uninterruptible if you take the last power. Though, I'm not 100% on that bit.
Overall, you seem to be putting a lot of emphasis on the raw enhancement values in powers, and ignoring a lot of opportunities for good set bonuses.
(Edit: You also have a LOT of places where ED is massively reducing end enhancement values, making that effort counterproductive)
(Edit 2: The Mastermind ATO set is pretty garbage. The AoE defense aura piece is okay, but the actual enhancements value recharge too much, and +recharge is the one enhancement aspect that Does Not Pass to Pets.)
Also, for a player who started in jan., and has only been VIP in June, may I ask how you plan to afford something with so many purples/PvP IOs in it?
Ok as a Robot/FF MM here's some things to keep in mind.
Your toggles are going to kill your endurance bar. Mastermind pay more endurance for their powers than other ATs. So going for +recovery bonuses in your sets is an excellent idea.
Take Tactics, not Assault. Your lower minions will be -3 levels to you. So if you're fighting +4 enemies in end game, they're fighting +7 enemies. They aren't going to hit squat if you don't have Tactics running. It helps that the Gaussian set has amazing bonuses too.
Your bots are going to have soft capped defense. You wont need to summon them often. Force fields only need to be cast once every 4 minutes. You're slotting for endurance as if you're going to have to summon and buff these guys all the time. You aren't. At all.
Protector bots buff pets, and you, so slot them with +defense.
Robot rifle attacks are pathetic. Don't take them. There are some nice attacks in the Epic pools though and.... Trust me. With robot/ff you're going to be REALLY wanting some more damage and... just something to DO by the time you reach the 40s.
Assault Bot is your damage. Burn patches are his damage. The problem is, all robot pets do knockback so they will, often, knock your enemies right out of the fire. This was designed back when the devs had no idea what the hell they were doing and it REALLY shows. I would highly suggest taking Electrifying Fences. They deal damage, immobilize, and negate knockback so enemies will STAY in the burn patches.
Some people are still in the mentality that Masterminds shouldn't attack. Well that has changed with the Incarnate powers. You want to be there stacking Interface effects right along with your pets and Hybrid only works if you attack. So take some attacks. Repulsion Bomb does damage, knockback, and stun. It's fantastic.
Force Bubble is crap. Unarguably the most useless tier 9 power. Take it if you want. You'll eventually respec out of it for something useful. Someone will tell you about one of the 3 situations where it's useful. I take powers that are useful in all situations. Not 3.
Here is the build I run with my Robot/FF MM.

So you know your 10 points short of defense cap for yourself. Though the pets are capped.

This is my first attempt at a build using MID's.
Any critique on this would be most welcome.
Im still rather new to the game. I've been playing since January, but only as a VIP since June.
