Sith Sorcerer type build advice

I loved my sith in swtor and would like to build one here. I'm going for a pure electric/lightning build but want to have energy always available to me. So I'm thinking recovery will have to be a secondary stat I'm thinking dex/rec/ego. What do you think?

    I'd go with ego/end/dex (or con) with a bit of rec in the talents.

    There's many different SS setups that can work there. An End-based one w/ Power Source will give you the largest energy tank to work with, but you don't really need your energy reserves to be that large for a normal Elec dps build (outside of using End PSS and Outburst, or just spamming Gigabolt). Elec Form can also help w/ energy, to lessen having to get as much End or Rec. Here's an example of a basic Elec dps build:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform (Ranged Damage)
    v3.44:36

    Super Stats
    Level 6: Ego (Primary)
    Level 10: Endurance (Secondary)
    Level 15: Constitution (Secondary)

    Talents
    Level 1: The Scourge (Con: 10, Ego: 10, Rec: 10, End: 8)
    Level 6: Worldly (Ego: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 9: Amazing Stamina (Rec: 5, End: 5)
    Level 12: Daredevil (Ego: 5, End: 5)
    Level 15: Quick Recovery (Con: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 18: Ascetic (Con: 5, Ego: 5)
    Level 21: Boundless Reserves (Con: 5, End: 5)

    Powers
    Level 1: Electric Bolt
    Level 1: Chain Lightning (Superconductor)
    Level 6: Electric Form (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 8: Chilled Form
    Level 11: Ionic Reverberation
    Level 14: Ball Lightning (Rank 2, Triplicity, Supercharged)
    Level 17: Electrical Current (Rank 2, Bad Wiring)
    Level 20: Lightning Arc (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 23: Resurgence (Rank 2)
    Level 26: Gigabolt (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 29: Conviction (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 32: Electric Shield (Rank 2)
    Level 35:
    Level 38:
    Adv. Points: 31/36

    Travel Powers
    Level 6:
    Level 35:

    Specializations
    Ego: Force of Will (2/2)
    Ego: Insight (3/3)
    Ego: Follow Through (3/3)
    Ego: Sixth Sense (2/3)
    Guardian: Fortified Gear (3/3)
    Guardian: Ruthless (2/2)
    Guardian: Find the Mark (2/3)
    Guardian: The Best Defense (3/3)
    Vindicator: Aggressive Stance (2/2)
    Vindicator: Merciless (3/3)
    Vindicator: Focused Strikes (3/3)
    Vindicator: Mass Destruction (2/3)
    Mastery: Ego Mastery (1/1)

    For single-target dps, it puts up Negative Ions and Superconductor w/ Ball Lit and Chain Lit, and then channels LArc while using Ball Lit on cd. AoE can be done w/ Ball Lit and Elec Current (Elec Current could be Lightning Storm instead, but I figured the former was more thematic), and Gigabolt can be used as a long-range opener AoE. This version of the build gears mostly for Ego, w/ some Con and End.

    There's plenty of other stat setups that could be explored too: Dex-focused w/ Chilled Form, Int-focused w/ Concentration, or End-focused w/ Power Source. For the PSS choice: Ego, Dex, Int, or End can all potentially be good. Rec PSS could also be taken, though it's generally not as good for dps.
