Hello all, ok i'm new to making builds and this isn't even my build its one i took and modified. I took this pairing because i wanted to be a GM and AV solo killer primarily. It is softcapped to all defense except psionics but the resistances are downright horrible. What im wondering is just because i chased softcapped defense does this mean my build would be horrible to play damage wise. Should i only soft cap to positionals and not worry about the rest? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. 

Beam Traps all softcapped.mxd

 

ps; not sure how to link build other than attaching it like i did.

You're giving up, like, everything for defense you don't really need... 

 

I don't even think there are non-positional attacks that aren't psi? Which is the only defense you don't have capped.

 

I guess I just prefer more procs and a little more lax on the defense (melee/ranged scapped)…
