Beam/Traps

[Tacheyon]

So I have started a Beam/Traps toon and I am having fun with it.  I know traps very well due to using them in a lot of my MM's.  I am going to take all except Time Bomb.  But I am having truble with what to take (and not to) in Beam.  I am thinking about dropping the snipe and maybe one other attack.  Here is a rough powers outline that i have worked up.

I see BR very differently. High recharge times, high end cost, need to spread disintegrate. The snipe is the best power for single target dps and has a 100% chance to spread disintegrate. The second best spreading power is lancer shot with 52%.This makes the snipe a must have and drives a lot of design requirements in my mind. Perma hasten to snipe as often as possible. Kismet plus 3 slotted tactics for instant snipe. Drop single shot or charged shot, both are not needed, single shot rarely spreads i think 10%.

What're you three-slotting Tactics with, please?
