Stone/Dark Help Improve Please!

[Schiz0]

 

    Hello, and thanks to anyone who helps! I appreciate it!

 

    I have been working on this in Mids and price is no object, but the resist/defense is more important than having a purple set slotted.  I just want my defense and resist as high as possible while still being able to smash nicely.  I am not sure how endurance will be so I might take cardiac to offset that if I need which is fine.  I picked Stone/Dark because I want to stack stuns mostly, and I wanted a non SS set with AoE Knockdown.

[Nightmarer]

What I see is, you did not take one of the best heals in game and took an useless pool instead, endurance consumption with all toggles on 2.22 end/sec which is totally unplayable once you start using attacks which, by the way, are grossly underslotted while other power are totally overslotted and also left out a great dmg mitigation toggle. Also, having 3 defense toggles on just to get your positional defenses between 18% and 30% seems really bad. There's no chance you are going to be able to use Aid Self with said defenses.

[Nightmarer]

This is how I would do it, I know resistances are not the same but I've found out with both my Psi/Fire and my MA/Fire Brutes that around 80% res to S/L is enough if softcapped to S/L def.  The build lacks a bit of AoE but has good active mitigation with Fault, Tremos and Energy Torrent so I'd go as this if I were to roll one:
