while it's expensive feat-wise, using a build quite similar to this I've found it worthwhile to martial cross training / Novice Power to get Dimensional Vortex. Using cherry picked interrupts and reactions, it's easy to bring along double punishments for several rounds, or else use the ranged ones to extend your defender abilities beyond your aura and to pull mobs into it.

Very useful, but very, very expensive on a build that needs two feats normally just to function smoothly.

I've been playing around with a very similar build for a while, and having a blast with it. Great to see the concept taken up to Level 30, so thank you for that.

My character is at 12 right now, and one item that I've been enjoying is the Farslayer Quarterstaff (Power - Standard Action: Make a melee basic attack with this weapon against a target up to 5 squares away from you.). With the Glimmering Blade stance and a couple boosters, it's one more way to position yourself where you want to be on the field on top of your standard Move action. Decent alternative if you can't get the Staff of the Traveler.

If you're not using SoTraveler, there's really no point in using a Staff at all.  Use a Hammer.  Staff of the Traveller is what makes the Blinker, blink.  If you can't get it, the Eladrin Knight will work fine with a more standard Knight layout (pick a non-attack Wizard power with Eldritch Knight.  Charm of Misplaced Wrath is great off-hand, but there are others), and be either more accurate or more damaging, or both.

Staff is the single worst Knight weapon, with that one exception.

I simply haven't updated the build since before MME was released.  Rest assured, they should be in there.

Another new thing since Heroes of the Feywild: once you reach Epic, you no longer need a Staff of the Traveler. There's a feat named Fey Shift (prerequisite 21st level, fey origin or Fey Bond feat), that lets you teleport up to 2 squares as a move action.
Not much of a point to swap everything if you've been playing since level one, but if for some reason you start at Epic that's a very good option.

Yeah, I switched out to that at Epic too.

I must update this build.
