  What attacks do you want to focus on? I assume 100Hands and maybe Open Palm Strike, but anything else from Unarmed?
  
  100Hands being the focus can be as simple as using TKicks w/ adv or Elbow Slam w/ adv for Demolish, and just spamming 100Hands. Maybe using Rising Knee or Backhand for refreshes. But its up to you- UA has plenty of attacks (though still waiting on a strong kick attack), though I wouldn't try to feature them all into one build.

  Mainly just chi attacks, like in the animes. As in, I want to be able to stack chi effects like crazy.

  Well, for offense you can only stack Chi Flame once per target, and most main attacks for Unarmed can do that now anyways. There's also BCR, though that's not for attacks, but you may have wanted it as ur heal anyways. Do you also mean the dodge/avoid stuff? Cause that generally also lowers ur dps and is more suited for tanking.
  
  Since the HC isn't updated yet, much of the original build will have to be edited/changed atm, so trust the exported text and not the linked build here:

  Can charge Dragon Kick at any time to stack the toggle and proc the EU, and BCR can also do this. Dragon Kick is also ur main AoE after you've used charged BCF to clump nearby enemies up around you (can also initiate w/ Elbow Slam before using BCF, if you like).
  
  The main single-target rotation can be as simple as applying Demolish w/ charged Elbow Slam, and then channeling 100Hands in between re-applying Demolish (BCF isn't the main ST attack here, since the Righteous Fury adv turns it more into a AoE corralling tool, and Dragon Kick has better coverage for AoE than 100Hands). I kept TKicks in there for its dodge buff, if you want it- though for dps its not strictly needed if you have another power to apply Demolish.
  
  Gears mostly for Dex, w/ some Con and Rec.
  
  Keep in mind that there's tons of other Unarmed variants now that can work (including diff SS setups like STR/Dex/Con). Its a pretty big set w/ many variations of attack pairings and special advs (and even some potential synergy w/ Fire and Darkness). So you may want to explore a bit in the PH/PTS. W/o specifying attacks ur kinda leaving the door wide open.

  Um, many things- too much for me to detail atm. You should prob check the patch notes, though.
