  Added the fire nade to provide a debuff for both force cascade and Annihlate, you won't top the charts with that build but it sure as hell feel like a ton of fun
  
  PS: Enrage whitout actulla having Strength as a super stats is not worth it

  I wouldn't normally mix melee sets w/ Force, just cause of KBs, and esp since Force hasn't been revamped to provide much. FC can be fun, but its still very costly; if mobs survive then you have to chase them down, and it will disable any energy form like Earth Form too. Maybe instead you could use Force for extra utility:

  Plays mainly like a HW dps build (w/ Eruption, Arc, and Annihilate), but has a few Force powers for extra self-healing, the block, and a debuffing Ult. Gears mostly for Str, w/ some Con and End/Rec.

  Ah that's a shame they can't work so well power wise together, I didn't even thing about the FC passive cancel, maybe I could switch it out with force blast instead.
  
  Thank you both for the feedback - I'll have to try them both out when I hit 40

  Yeah, Unstoppable would be the better passive for this type of thing. FC can be used with it, if you still want though.​​
