Well, firstly FotM scales w/ Dex, which you don't have SS'd here, and the Might attacks won't proc it as is. You'd have to switch to using Dex SS, or perhaps change to Enrage as the toggle/form and keep Str. I'd also prob not get Fluidity as your block, since you'll lose the large dmgRes bonus that normal blocks give then. I may also consider getting Shockwave in Might, since it's a nice & wide AoE to tag mobs with. I'd prob also tweak other various things w/ the build, like the powers and their advs. Here's an example edit of it:

(not an early leveling build, ofc; you can get one of Might's or MA's basic combos early on and train out of it later, if needed)

For single-targets, it initially uses charged Demolish to put up its debuff, while charged DU is your main attack, and Inex Tides can refresh Demolish and put up 2ndary Challenge. For AoE, Shockwave can group up mobs in a wide area in front of you, while Inex Tides' pbAoE can also be used on clumps of nearby mobs. UR can also be thrown in as the Ult for a bit of burst dmg and extra threat. Gears mostly for Con, w/ some Str and Rec.

Wardicator could also work for the specs here, if you want a bit more of a dps focus.

Just want to mention Endorphin Rush as an alternative to BCR if you'd rather not have the damage penalty of the latter.

Oh sh@!. Great suggestion (I've forgotten this power exists). Thanks.
