Speedster builds?

Hey, I'm in the process of leveling a freeform variant of a fist build, and I was wondering if anyone had a build handy that would work for a speedster style character.

Thank you for your input.

    Here's a more unique spin on a speedester:

    PowerHouse (Link to this build)

    Name: A guy that is fast.

    Archetype: Freeform

    Super Stats:
    Level 6: Recovery (Primary)
    Level 10: Dexterity (Secondary)
    Level 15: Intelligence (Secondary)

    Talents:
    Level 1: The Fist
    Level 6: Coordinated
    Level 9: Impresario
    Level 12: Negotiator
    Level 15: Agile
    Level 18: Martial Focus
    Level 21: Covert Ops Training

    Powers:
    Level 1: Righteous Fists
    Level 1: One Hundred Hands (Rank 2, Rank 3, Ghostly Strikes)
    Level 6: Way of the Warrior (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 8: Bountiful Chi Resurgence (Rank 2, Resurgent Reiki)
    Level 11: Mighty Leap
    Level 14: Form of the Tempest
    Level 17: Molecular Self-Assembly
    Level 20: Conviction (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 23: Thunderclap (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 26: Dragon Uppercut (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 29: Parry (The Elusive Monk)
    Level 32: Evasive Maneuvers (Rank 2)
    Level 35: Intensity (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 38: Masterful Dodge

    Travel Powers:
    Level 6: Mach Speed (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 35:

    Specializations:
    Recovery: Gear Utilization (3/3)
    Recovery: Staying Power (2/2)
    Recovery: Super Charged (3/3)
    Recovery: Second Wind (2/2)
    Warden: Fortified Gear (3/3)
    Warden: Ruthless (2/2)
    Warden: Elusive (2/2)
    Warden: The Best Defense (3/3)
    Brawler: The Glory of Battle (3/3)
    Brawler: No Escape (1/3)
    Brawler: Penetrating Strikes (2/2)
    Brawler: Ruthless (2/2)
    Brawler: Offensive Expertise (2/2)
    Mastery: Recovery Mastery (1/1)

    Stat Dex and Int very heavily on this build. The goal here is to basically be running recharges super frequently and getting constant energy, which enables you to be sitting pretty at around 40% crit chance most of the time.

    I have a character pretty similar to this build, who's also a speedster. Aside from that crit chance, his recharge on Masterful Dodge and Intensity is around 35 seconds. Half the time he's under the effect of his actives, which is something that Second Wind, Intelligence, and gear stacked all on top of one another enables.

    Rapid punches, super-metabolism, and super-speed recharges. What's not to like?

    Sword Cyclone or Eye of the Storm are good Dual Blade powers that resemble what someone with super speed would be able to do. If you don't mind mixing melee types.

    Also, if you don't mind the Nightcrawler "BAMF" effect of Void Shift, it's a melee lunge that resembles someone moving too fast for the human eye to see.

    For superstats, take DEX/Con/Int.


    Remember: Half the people you know are below average...

    Do not correct a fool, for he will hate you for it. Correct a wise man, for he will appreciate you for it.

    Don't be like the Qularr. They would not last one round in the Interstellar Galactic Arena...
