I'm looking to pump up my Sunder DC for the Divine Crusader ED's Cower Before Me. Beyond a shatter item, what are some ways to increase Sunder DC? Thanks

Any trance (like Divine Might or Know the Angles) will give an insight tactics bonus equal to half the relevant stat modifier - this is the easiest way to get a big boost. Divine Crusader T1 has +6 Shatter, and Legendary Dreadnought T1 has +3 to all tactics.
In addition to your enhancement shatter item, there are also Insightful, Quality, and Profane options available as well as Artifact from some set bonuses (Summer 4-piece, Echoes of the Walking Ancestor, The Traveler's Guidance).
Boosting your main stat is always a good option, and this includes temporary boosts (Action Surge, remnant potions, yugoloth potions, primal scream etc). Enhancement, Insightful, Quality, Artifact, Profane, Exceptional, Festive, Alchemical - those from gear, as well as filigree, tomes, PL's, and enhancements.
City's Beacon and Divinity filigree both have a +1 Sunder DC option, and Dreadbringer has +1 Tactics. You'll likely be better off increasing your main stat in most cases though, particularly if you have access to +2 stat filigree from threads of fate (although Dreadbringer is really good if you don't have enough Fort Bypass).
-----
Other than that, some classes/races have enhancement options, like trees that use Sunder DC's have boosts to that and some trees just have +tactics which apply universally; some races like Warforged have a tactics bonus, Aasimar Fallen Bond, and Purple Dragon Knight adds 1/3 your Cha modifier to tactics DC's if you use Cormyrean Knight Training.
-----
Then there's feats; Fighter has some class-restricted tactics feats, but Tactician gives +2 as a Destiny feat and Scion of the Astral Plane gives +4 and isn't a bad DPS feat option either. Fighter Past lives give +1 each (up to +3), and Ancient Tactics epic PL will give +2 each (up to +6) if you use that martial PL stance.

That's all I can think off off the top of my head, but if you want more specifics a description of your build would help
As far as my limited testing shows, 90ish is landing more than half of the time in endgame R1 and 110ish is approaching no-fail in legendary R4 (depending on content).

105 is giving me no fail on R1. 110-114 seems to be a sweet spot in r10.

Combat Mastery, does that still stack?
Which would make "Legendary Hurricane Insignia " and "Legendary Belt of Whirling Blades" good options.
