Ice/mental can some help me with this?

[malewitch40]

I just got back into the game after many years and created this character out of fun, not looking to pvp or go crazy, just having fun whilst doing my best to survive (not always easy in blaster mode).  Are there skippable powers in either set?  I wanted to make an aoe guy, but tried to fit in some defensive abilities here, its a bit of a mess, but bare with me, this is why i am here, to get some advice.

You should consider mace mastery.  Scorpion shield gives defense to smashing/lethal/energy as opposed to just s/l from frozen armor.  And it's the first power pick so you don't have to take a prerequisite.
