PvE Combat Deflection build

Hi guys
I was wondering if this was possible, theres alot of feats and boons aimed for deflection.
I guess it would be a strictly crit/deflect build, with enough HP to make the deflection matter.
Not tanky enough for FBI of course, but skirmisher/T1.
It would be just to try something different, I'm tired of trapper dps build aiming for paingiver chart.

So any advice regarding feats, boons, powers, gear and so?

    I have no extra investment in deflect, but it does reach 60%.

    Lack of fox makes melee hazardous in pve. I don't like using it, doesn't get along with the capstone.

    Besides, only trapper can abuse it with the CD spam. I just go all out attack and simply leech away.

    Nice thing about being the slowest melee build in the game is that we don't have to worry about eating the brunt of it. Combat can still back up for a moment to use ranged encounters.

    Pathfinder, slot lonewolf and pathfinders action, stack deflection on your pet, buy a shadow demon - good to go. Easiest immortality pve build ever.
    No idea what my toon is now.

    I have 100% deflect chance and 200k health. Never leave home without it.

    With a good combat build and good comp, you won't need to ever leave melee, and DPS is awesome. As for PVP side, its body count.

    Thx all, I was able to tank esot in a pug run, the boss-fight lasted like 5 min, cause of low dps'er, so a good test, had to use Fox though..
    I cant count all the times a boss pays no attention to the real tank and run 100 meters just to aggro my poor HR, now at least I make him pay a bit for it :)

    It's crazy how much aggro we manage to build. In MSVA, the boss would walk through the mob to get to me and the tank would not gain aggro until the boss stopped moving. I was spamming range (no CD's) using AotF.
