Hey there! I am inspired to make a Black Canary build and was looking for thought on this.
https://aesica.net/co/herocreator.htm?v=35&n=Black Canary Inspired&d=11720a000000063093E100EE00EK00EB00EP0XEG03ED03ES0JET03K503ON011L00ER00JJ033bkF3T3B2MGB40000000000&e=
Another topic is, did cryptic try to turn martial arts into the dimensional (Iron fist) style or can I take Steadfast to focus on crits? I can see building MA in both ways, but wasn't sure if that's accurate.
Thanks for looking in!

Here's how i may edit your build, keeping BCF, DK, and DU in there, and taking adv of BCF's RF adv for AoE:

The open power slot can be w/e ya want.
Charged BCF can pull in nearby enemies in an AoE, which can allow you to follow up w/ charged DK and TKicks. For single-target dps, TKicks can put up (and refresh) Demolish, while charged DK can put up Rush for extra energy, and charged DU is your main attack. I gave you FotTiger as the toggle/form since it's more reliable w/ charged moves like BCF, DK, and DU (it won't proc on TKicks, though TK is pretty cheap and is not a main attack here), but you could potentially use other toggle/forms (like FotTempest, though it's more RNG-based). Also, a STR/Dex/Con SS setup (still Dex focused) could prob work fine here, but that's up to you. Gears mostly for Dex, w/ some Con and Rec.
Oh, and I didn't keep Hyper Voice, mainly cause it doesn't play well w/ the rest of the build (you already have AoE here, it repels, doesn't proc Steadfast, and also doesn't proc most MA toggles- save for FotTempest). If you really wanted to keep HVoice and use it, then you could switch to FotTempest as the toggle/form and work around that (or maybe consider using something like Sonic Device instead, if that's thematic enough).
