A luke cage themed build

Hm how about it??

I guess you want a street brawler w/ a defensive passive like Invuln or Regen? Unarmed may be too flashy, and Might too slow and large w/ its knock effects. I guess you could go w/ Fighting Claw's anims, as long as you have invis weapons for them..

btw, are you actually going to be using any of these builds? You're posting a lot of requests all of the sudden, and aren't giving much info regarding in-game content or goals for any of them.

Yes I was collecting so that I don't have to do all this waiting but I was thinking of making luke cage might themed

Sure, I guess that can work if you don't have invis weapons, and as long as you focus on basic punches or strikes- though it'll prob just look like a basic Might build then:

I borrowed Rising Knee from Unarmed cause it seemed fitting enough, and it has utility in refreshing Demolish (the debuff) easier than charging Demolish (the attack) again, and it can proc MSA for extra energy (as its a cd attack). You can always build knock resistance w/ other attacks if you want to not knock trash away w/ Haymaker or Roomsweeper. Basic boss dps rotation is to lunge in and charge Demolish to debuff, then spam charged Haymaker while hitting Rising Knee occasionally. If you wanted an AoE that will knock up instead of away (and don't mind the leg sweep anim), you could consider replacing Roomsweeper w/ Inexorable Tides from MA. Gears mostly for Str, w/ some Con and Int.

Beatdown or Defense Combo could be more fitting to the theme w/o the crazy knocks, though those two currently don't work well in Might dps builds using Enrage and Strength.

(Also, again you can use the forum's quote feature; its cleaner than the format you're using.)
