On my Bio tanks, I only slot the Panacea,Miracle,and Regenerative procs in Health. I'd drop your other and save that 1 slot.

I also only slot the Numina's (and sometimes the Power Transfer) proc in Inexhaustible. If you drop the others, that frees up 2 more slots.

 

 I would take 2 of those 3 free slots and put in Genetic Contamination. Personally, I like the S. Avalanche set in it. I like the bonuses the set gives, and the KD proc hits pretty reliably, thus knocking your enemies on their feet and giving you some more mitigation.

 Your other free slot could be put in DNA Siphon or Parasitic Aura. I really like these 2 powers and try to give them as many slots as possible. I also like throwing the Preemptive Optimization EndMod/Endurance/Recharge piece in DNA Siphon. You want this power to recharge as fast as possible, and slotted for Heal, but I like throwing just that one piece in it to help with my endurance as well.

  I would also take 2 slots from Tough and move those 2 slots to Ablative Carapace. Slot the Preventive Medicine Heal/Recharge and Heal/End/Recharge in the 2 slots you added. Whatever S/L resistance you lose from taking those 2 slots from Tough, you'll gain back in the set bonus Preventative Medicine gives you...plus Ablative will give you more Absorbtion/Regen, and recharge quicker.

 

 Also, don't forget to +5 your Recharge Reductions in Hasten. That'll shave off a few seconds.

After a week of play testing and a few changes this is my final build ... Enjoy

How's it play? The build looks good. My only sugestion would be on Inexhaustible...you've got the Panaca proc and the Heal. That set bonus gives you +12% Regen. If you dropped the Panacea Heal and replaced it with the Regenerative Tissue: +Regeneration, you'd gain an extra +13% to your regen. 

 Hope you're enjoying the tank!

Durability is fantastic .... I understand what you mean about mitigation now that I added the Superior Avalanche set .... I soloed a Moonfire TF at 4/8 without a scratch ... Thx for the advice ... As for the Panacea proc ... Do you mean just replace it with Regenerative Tissue Proc in Health?

Keep the panacea proc and swap the heal IO for the regenerative tissue proc
