Horc Dark Monk AC/dodge build without dps nerfing

[obscure.jester]

going on my 3rd life on this toon, i planned to get a monk. since i still have plenty of btc gear from pally first life and some useful stuff from barbarian second life, i was intrigued by a defensive build which can swap between trash beater and main tank. despite a light monk would better fit the archetype, i rather stick with dark monk for shadowfade and touch of death, better fitting my playstile. need some feedback from you before i undergo the TR process eventually.

race: horc
helpful STR boost - useful hate boost enhancement - cool look

allignment: lawful neutral
less dmg from unholy sources - no problem with tainted items

past life: pally, barbarian
nice insightful heal amp and more hp via past life feat, also enabling racial toughness line enhancement.

6) spring attack, stunning fist
9) imp 2wf
12) combat expertise
15) whirlwind attack
18) greater 2wf

wraps: need hints here, have some metalline of [uselessness] / silver of [something] and i dont wanna lose sleep over shadow crypt farming. have an epic staff of naat gann tho. still, pls help.

hp lev20 unbuffed: 645 (685 in stance, around 750 at lev 21).
AC standing unbuffed: 10 base +9 dex, +13 wis, +15 centered, +9 armor, +5 deflection, +5 natural = 66
AC standing unbuffed in stance: 65 +20% stance +10% CE = 85/86 (+4 if bulwark of defense and +4 shield clicky 5 mins 3x rest)
permanent dodge standing: 25% +20% blurry +10% ghostly = 46% (0.75*0.8*0.9)

overall review:
a decent 90/100 AC without considering EDs boosts (sentinel, shadowdancer, grandmaster)
a very nice 50ish% permadodge, boostable further via shadowfade and EDs
permanent shadowfade while fighting due to high ki generation
good HP
very high stun DC
decent dps
easy glancing blows on touch of death
hate generation +70% from stance, +25% from horc, +20% from eclaw set
high survivability and versatility
whirlwind attack hitting 4 times each + glancings in 360' with 4[W] (a blast when surrounded)

not the ultimate monk build but fits my playstyle and fun to play. what would you suggest me to improve the build?

Last time I heard barb past life doesnt qualify you for epic toughness. Also with destinies and in earth stance that 50hp isn't that hot. IMA and vorpal strikes are better options.

Ouch!!!! Can anyone confirm this since i am interested too?

According to the wiki, the barb past life grants access to the racial and class based toughness enhancements specifically, it does not say that it counts as taking the toughness feat. epic toughness requires specifically the toughness feat. Given this information, it is a fair assumption that the barb past life does NOT qualify one for epic toughness. That said, this is turbine, so actual in game verification would still be beneficial.

he is right, no epic toughness if taking past life barb feat. well, im happier then, will surely take IMA and will spend those 2 CON lev ups into WIS instead to increase further AC, saves, ki and stun DC since i wont longer need 21 CON base.

so, after first feedbacks im keen to renounce to epic toughness and get bulwark of defense at 21 and improved martial arts at 24.
then lev ups 16 and 20 wont longer go into CON but will go into WIS. im also thinking they can both go into STR actually if stun DC will be high enough for epic elites.
my concern is actually EE LoB and i think for that single raid it will be a good move for me to use paladin ED in order to boost HP, DR, AC and PR.
the stance will also prove useful eventually, reducing as possible LoB's huge damage when a strike lands over my dodge%.
on a 700ish hp build, with pally ED i should probably reach 900ish, which is a safer amount in order to get healed in time if LoB lands 2 or 3 quick hits.
most important thing, i have to see if i am able to twist meld into the darkness from shadowdancer ED in order to get a permanent boost on dodge (meld's cooldown is 2 minutes, shadowfade lasts for 60 seconds thus i should be able to go like meld, fade1, fade2, meld and so on).
