Looks pretty solid. Only things that spring to mind (ha! to mind!) are:

* Incisive Wit: if you had the advantage points to spare, this gives a chance for a damage boost, I believe, on your energy builder. Just something I usually throw in.

* I always get them mixed up but there is a difference between the two Ego-centric passives. One boosts ego MELEE damage more than the other, I think, and one has more protection in it. Anyway, for this build you clearly don't want the one that boosts MELEE damage the most, whichever one that is.

* Instead of Concentration, isn't there an Ego-specific Form? May not be worth it, but if ANY build ~might~ use it, it would be an entirely-mental build...

There is an Ego specific form, Mental Discipline, but the boost from the multiple stacks of Concentration outweigh the cost discount + damage boost from Mental Discipline IMO.

Edit: I should mention, I like Telekinetic Burst for its guaranteed Ego Leech stacks and the knockdown advantage. It's spammable and an AoE, so I like to hit that a bunch, get my 5 EL stacks, then hit them in the face with my Lance.

Build looks good, but I would make some changes, especially with the spec.

I recommend these spec:

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)

As of the powers:

Take the rank 3 of TK Lance, the damage boost from id infusion isn't really that noticeable because of the diminishing returns.
I would swap Telekinetic Eruption for Telekinetic Maelstrom, it will help you stack Ego Leech faster, though I wouldn't recommend it if you don't have a powerful enough PC (Because of all the rubbles that it generates).

I'd second Telekinetic Burst, mainly for being a ranged AoE. The knockdown and Ego Leech is a plus.

If you don't like the look of TK Burst, you could also try Vengeance (from Celestial). TK Burst is pretty much all-round better, but a ranged AoE is better than no ranged AoE. Vengeance has a pretty cool ground-crack animation when ranked up and full-charged.

Ruthless to max and Merciless to max would be more damage. I'd drop initiative (in Vindicator) and one each in Fortified Gear and Locus (in Guardian) for them.
