I'd go full deft defender, magic crit then whatever points is left into Acumen.

The Disrupt/Dodge is too good not to have imo

- full intel, 2x futile strikes, 3x magic crit, 1x dodge/disrupt

- intel in all armor slots, wounds+intel in weapon

Replace your rr45 weapon with rr39 one until you can buy rr61 staff.

Minimum decent rr spec needs rr64.

The overall best mastery spec needs rr70.

The 2nd best mastery spec requires only r39 rr0, when skipping the 13pt aoe skill in mid path.

It's obvious that your build is " running around in a pug warband and trying to finish someone off." For solo play and scene play - in this spec, you are an easy rr points provider for the order. Therefore, in fact, it does not matter what talismans you will have in your clothes. It's just that you only have spec for playing pug warband.

You started asking from the end, it's not right. First you need to write under what manner of game you are building a build: solo game, duo game, game in the WB, in the party or something universal.
I can give a practical example, I collected a build for my shaman under my style of playing solo, and so that I could both kill and heal when necessary.
