Looking for feedback on Elec/Unarmed MA DPS/Tank build

Greetings.
I am looking for suggestions/feedback regarding my Electric Speedster build.
I am uncertain about BCR vs Conviction and the Defense Passive - How bad is Regeneration?
Should I instead focus on Invulnerability or Defiance?

I've been tanking alerts without too much trouble currently, is there anything I should focus on (besides gear) for more endgame (Cosmic/QWZ)?

Thank you for your time.

    BCR vs Conviction is a tradeoff:
    -Conviction heals for more burst, being DEX PSS you should crit often.
    -BCR lowers your dps and its better sinergy is with Dodge via the advantage. However, in your build it works well since it is a Chi Effect, triggering the Form and the EU.

    I think Regeneration works sub-par relative to the other two Passives. You should probably couple it with a hefty dose of blocking, and good gear. But of course depends on the content you wish to run: Cosmics I have no clue... but QWZ is soloable with a variety of builds, so this one is probably viable.

    For the Offensive Passive you might want to take a look at NWarrior. Finally, since you have an Ultimate for a big damage spike, might as well bring it to Rank3, dropping a point (or 2) in the travel powers - or just drop a point and get the Threat advantage to us it as a threat grab move.

    Invuln or Defiance would prob be better if you're planning on main tanking high-end content w/ devoted healers around; else, Regen is fine for most things.

    BCR is a decent self-heal here (works better for dodge-based builds via the RR adv, but that's also not needed for it to be fine), if you mind the lack of crit and dmg penalty. And yea, NW can be a good offensive passive, but Unstoppable works fine too, if you want some extra knock resist. You'll also be a bit knock-prone when tanking, but good blocking can help mitigate that.

    Storm Summoner won't work w/ the toggle/from and EU, but I suppose w/ BCR being able to proc them instead that you could use the attack briefly for the wide Challenge tag and pull-in when tanking (and as a 2ndary Challenge apply when tapped vs bosses). Also be mindful that you'll be generating extra aggro when using BCF in the dps role (which may or may not end up mattering, depending on the content you use it in). Elusive in Warden spec could also be a good pick, depending on if you want more mitigation or more dmg.
