MA/Force Kung Fu Robot with Vacuum "Boxing Gloves?"

hedgehog

Hello, I'd love to see if I could get a Strength build MA character with some weak long range to reel opponents back into the fight, Role mostly leaning towards Melee/Tank so I can utilize the shielding force powers provide. Any ideas on how this could work?

Well, I guess you can use Force Snap and/or Sword Cyclone's pull-in adv (assuming you have invis weapons), since their anims could be fitting. If you want to employ Str + Enrage and some MA, then I'd prob go w/ DU as your main single-target attack. For example:

The last 1-2 powers can be w/e ya want.

Sword Cyclone and Defensive Combo can be your main AoE attacks (and the Combo can also be used when you want to utilize its dmg shield in general). DU can be your main single-target attack, while Demolish can debuff for it. Force Snap can pull-in an enemy at range and also be used as another self-heal. I also threw in Shield Restoration for the small AoE shield and for the Power Shield effect. Gears mostly for Con, w/ some Str and End.
