    The Disciple AT is actually pretty good for trying out a TK Blades dps- provided ya get Siphoning Strikes, some Con/maxHP boosts, and decent crit to help it survive easier. Example of a build for it:

    (Unnamed Build) - The Disciple

    Thanks, but is Recovery as a SS necessary ? Or I can take Con ? :o

    Its an AT; you can't change those parameters. You can make an FF build, though the AT prob still can do more dps and/or healing w/ Siphoning than an FF build based on TK Blades, but the FF can be customized more.

    Oh, yeah, I am already levelling a FF ego blades toon, that's why I asked

    If you're freeform, brother, I highly recommend CON over REC for survivability. Get Form of the Tempest over Mental Discipline. Get Mind Storm over TK Eruption. Aside from that, Disciple is a solid build to base from, and Flow always gives great recommendations.

    Yea, I guess to formalize an FF version of that, it could be something like:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform

    Super Stats
    Level 6: Ego (Primary)
    Level 10: Dexterity (Secondary)
    Level 15: Constitution (Secondary)

    Talents
    Level 1: The Void (Con: 10, End: 10, Dex: 8, Ego: 10)
    Level 6: Acrobat (Dex: 5, Con: 5)
    Level 9: Ascetic (Con: 5, Ego: 5)
    Level 12: Shooter (Dex: 5, Ego: 5)
    Level 15: Quick Recovery (Con: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 18: Impresario (Dex: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 21: Wordly (Ego: 5, Rec: 5)

    Powers
    Level 1: Kinetic Darts
    Level 1: Ego Weaponry (Rank 2, Siphoning Strikes)
    Level 6: Id Mastery (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 8: Ego Reverberation
    Level 11: Form of the Tempest
    Level 14: Telekinetic Burst (Rank 2, Sudden Impact)
    Level 17: Ego Blade Dash
    Level 20: Telekinetic Maelstrom (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 23: Ego Blade Breach (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 26: Ego Blade Annihilation (Rank 2, Mental Acuity)
    Level 29: Resurgence (Rank 2)
    Level 32: Ego Surge (Nimble Mind)
    Level 35: Telekinetic Shield (Rank 2, Telekinetic Reinforcement)
    Level 38: Rebirth
    Adv. Points: 32/36

    Travel Powers
    Level 6:
    Level 35:

    Specializations
    Ego: Force of Will (2/2)
    Ego: Insight (3/3)
    Ego: Follow Through (3/3)
    Ego: Sixth Sense (2/3)
    Warden: Fortified Gear (2/3)
    Warden: Slaughter (3/3)
    Warden: Ruthless (2/2)
    Warden: The Best Defense (3/3)
    Vindicator: Aggressive Stance (2/2)
    Vindicator: Merciless (3/3)
    Vindicator: Focused Strikes (3/3)
    Vindicator: Mass Destruction (2/3)
    Mastery: Ego Mastery (1/1)

    In this case, an FF can't accomplish the base dps and/or siphoning healing as the AT, but mine as well bolster up other things like passive defenses, an SS setup, a more tanky spec combo, a self-res or threat wipe, etc. Either Ego or Warden Mastery can work for this; could also consider putting Mental Storm's debuff in there somewhere.
