I love all the +rech and +dam you have in your build; it's very impressive, but like you said, without some regard toward defense, +HP, +regen and resistances, you'll die a lot.
I built mine for S/L and melee defense and although your damage output is clearly better, my build has better defense, resistance, and regeneration, and I have no survival issues running at +2x8. Here's what it looks like.

That is a very interesting build, when I have a chance to sleep I will take a serious look at it.
Lisa eagerly looks at both builds then sadly shakes her head.
My Spines/Elec just turned 40 and I am having a wonderful time...but...Lisa hangs her head....my build looks nothing like these two.
I knew from trying to beat Defense into my Fire/Fire that I was not going to be able to afford it...so I frankenslotted a bit and went after the basics. I used four Eradications in every power that accepted them, I have Improved Slow Bonuses from Pacing the Turtle and, I forgot what the other was, Impeded Swiftness I think. I have some accuracy bonuses...and so far so good..nay better than good... I am loving this toon 
But, I am not trying to go 4/8, I am 1/2 solo so that might make a difference.
Actually, I am 0/1 in Romanland (Ouchies), 1/3 for missions in the Rikti warzone, and 1/2 for all else.
Welp, Have to scoot my boots to work.
Thanks for posting these. I would post mine, but, I would be laughed at 
Lisa.
So don't wait for heroes, do it yourself
You've got the power
winners are losers
who got up and gave it just one more try

But I have seen some of the "inexpensive" builds" posted here....and they are not so inexpensive
But so far so good. I am a level 43 now and am having a very, very good time.
Grin. I took down the Clockwork King the first try
He was an EB, but all I had was small inspirations, and, I do not have Build Up, or Tough, so it was a good thing he was an EB..oh, and I was on 1/2 difficulty.
Again...thank you, and I mean it very sincerly..hard to tell in the written word.
Lisa.

So, I've been playing my Spines/Elec/Blaze for a good while now. I really enjoy all three sets, but im finding (I also totally expected this) that I die alot. Now, Im not to concerned about this as I like the charecter anyways. I was just wondering if anyone else had any ideas on slotting, possibly for some defense. As you can see in the following build I essentially went for pure recharge.
