Help with suggestions for my Dark Dark

[darg]

Here's my current build. It's good right now, I'm happy but I would like to change up a few things. I feel like I want more AOE powers in exchange of single targets. So I wanted to take patron powers, either Mu or Soul Mastery. I'm thinking I could exchange Siphon Life although I would like to retain the +res to Lethal/smash. I see Bombardment isn't too bad for its bonuses.  After that I'm not sure what I can change without hurting my build too much. I'm not a numbers guy so I'm not sure if I'd weakening my damage output too much. Any suggestions would help.

I have the same questions. Anyone with more experience on improving Brutes?
