+1.
Having a unique flat bonus of +2 to AC and all Saves at 4th level is hard to look past.
Especially, as it applies to Flat-Footed/Touch AC.
FYI, the Jingasa of the Fortunate Soldier gives you a +1 luck bonus to AC (plus a 1/day crit/sneak attack negation), and Occult Adventures introduced some kind of lucky horseshoe item for 6800 gp (I think) that gives +1 luck bonus to all saves. So you can get all that from items for a bit less than 12000 eventually.

It only applies when you are Bloodraging. That means that most of the time it wouldn't work for Flat-Footed AC. Flat-Footed isn't going to be a huge problem anyways since you get Uncanny Dodge at 2nd level.
I think you've done a good job of mitigating the penalties from cross-blooded and have a good build. I've thought it over and although I still wouldn't take the trade-off, it is a reasonable thing to do. At 8th level, all your defenses will actually be better when bloodraging than when not in bloodrage -- that is going to be a really nice ability.
