Add a Gaussian's Chance for Buildup to Invinc. Put Achilles Heel -Resist and Analyze Weakness +ToHit in your Irradiated Ground. Slot your self heal attack with accuracy, recharge, and healing; you're a brute, the damage will take care of itself. Touch of Nictus is good there. Don't bother with Proton Sweep; I respecced out of it and do not miss it. The rest you already probably know: four Kinetic Combat/two Crushing Impact with accuracy in your single target attacks. The brute set bonuses should put you well on the way to the resistance softcaps.

That could be, Might try taking Serge's mission on a rogue or vigilante (if they can get it) and then go defeat some St. Martial Tsoos to see if they count.

Lowbie powers get an End Red first. Higher level powers get Rech first. But the order is entirely contingent on your salvage and recipe drops. Except for the accuracy, which you go out of the way to acquire, usually from Heraclea who memorized the recipes, and which always is first to be slotted, just as toggles get End Red first. But when you replace them with sets, the set IOs replace the generic IOs where they will do the least harm to the enhancements they replace. So their placement is highly random.

There are a number of weapon racks already in game that hold such items as rifles, swords, maces and such, Most are floor mounted but that's easy enough to change.

The defense buff you get from Divine Avalanche is positional (melee) rather than typed (smashing, lethal, etc.) The synergy is strongest with the defense sets that also offer position rather than type defense. But since you can't run Shields with Katana, this basically leaves Super Reflexes and Ninjitsu as the obvious choices. You might also consider Regen, especially if you want a whole-game rather than an endgame character. Characters like that are valuable additions to anyone's roster, even if they aren't good for master runs. Build them for running Synapse and Citadel as fast as you can, with double inf/no XP when exemped. Regen gets hardly any defense, so adding a layer of melee defense that's indifferent to type adds value.

The /electric brute who laughs at Sappers and Carnies struggles with Nemesis snipers, Vahz at lower levels, and even large numbers of Rikti monkeys. Toxic hole is worse than psi hole, in that while Toxic is rather rare, mobs that have it tend to stack it. But the most annoying mobs in the game to me are Dark Astoria Tsoos. These are the new Knives of Artemis. You clear the group guarding the objective, but then you have to Bo Derek run to click it.
