    If you can afford FC spam (and maybe borrow a ranged Crushing debuff from another set), then yeah Force is fine. Electricity, Fire, and Ranged TK are also quite strong for ranged builds (though ofc nothing touches PA's spot at the top). Sorcery also isn't too shabby, I suppose. Really, most ranged powersets have at least one decent single-target attack that you can build around these days. 'Fun' is pretty subjective, though. Are there any other factors that would make you want to try a given powerset? Like the look, playstyle (long vs short range, mobile vs 'turret', etc.), or maybe just that you haven't tried the set before?

    Yeah, I think is the look. the new lockbox outfit set seems fits in that power.

    Please share a decent force build to me ~ Do not worry about the gears and mod.

    (You don't have to @ me multiple times in your thread. I'll eventually see it anyways :p )

    Jaaz's build is pretty good for an FC one. Burst Shot is there to put up a ranged Crushing debuff, but there's other options if you don't like pulling out guns (or use invisible weapon skins, if you have them). I may also add Gravity Driver back in to it (maybe instead of R1 Imbue), if you have it unlocked and want the Ult for the Overpower effect. Could also consider adding back in a threat wipe somewhere, if you think you'll need it.

    Here's a basic ranged TK build that you can edit:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform (Ranged Damage)
    v3.44:36

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

    Talents
    Level 1: The Squall (Dex: 8, Ego: 10, Rec: 10, End: 10)
    Level 6: Martial Training (Str: 3, Dex: 3, Ego: 3, Rec: 3)
    Level 9: Amazing Stamina (Rec: 5, End: 5)
    Level 12: Impresario (Dex: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 15: Worldly (Ego: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 18: Accurate (Dex: 5, End: 5)
    Level 21: Daredevil (Ego: 5, End: 5)

    Powers
    Level 1: Kinetic Darts
    Level 1: Telekinetic Strike (Rank 2, Stressed Out)
    Level 6: Ego Form (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 8: Mental Precision
    Level 11: Telekinetic Reverberation
    Level 14: Telekinetic Barrage (Rank 2, Dazzle)
    Level 17: Resurgence (Rank 2)
    Level 20: Telekinetic Lance (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 23: Telekinetic Maelstrom (Expansive Intellect)
    Level 26: Telekinetic Shield (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 29: Ego Surge (Nimble Mind)
    Level 32:
    Level 35:
    Level 38: Mental Impact (Rank 2)
    Adv. Points: 28/36

    Travel Powers
    Level 6:
    Level 35:

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

    The open power slots can be w/e ya want, and you can replace the Ult if you don't have it unlocked.

    Alternates between TK Strike and TK Lance for single-target dps, and uses TK Barrage (and TK Maelstrom) for AoE. TK Burst is also okay as the AoE instead, but then you have to be w/in 50ft to use it. Mental Storm (from Telepathy) can also be good to throw in to build up Stress (and then you can get TK Strike to R3), but it's also limited to 50ft and may or may not be thematic enough. Regardless, the build gears mostly for Dex (for Mental precision), w/ some Rec.
