  You'll prob want something like Power Conversion or Dark Transfusion to help afford FC w/ that setup (Force Sheath can also be an option, though you'd have to keep the linger effect up and get hit for it to work). Also, I'd prob pass on Grav Polarity w/ Force Eruption, since the well is stationary and its dmg bonus is small and affected by DR. A passive like Night Warrior would prob also be preferable to Quarry, and you prob don't need the adv on the energy builder. If you don't mind the look of it, I would also suggest adding Hurl w/ both advs that put up Demolish from long-range. Here's an example edit of the build:

  Crushing Wave is a weird AoE since it doesn't innately proc Conc/Chilled Form unless your target is >25ft out. I took TK Burst as the cheap AoE option instead, cause it can still knock w/ it's adv and because it can be made to look Force-like, but there's other AoE options out there as well. The build can alternate between Force Blast and charged FC for single-target dmg, while using Power Conversion for extra energy, and throwing in Hurl to put up and refresh Demolish. Gears mostly for Ego, w/ some Rec and Con.

  This is my FC build. I have the 2 blasts for different ranges and functions. "Some day" when we get a proper Force debuff one of those will likely go away; I refuse to throw rocks when the guy is a 30th c. time traveler. Fire All Weapons is also fun in the last slot. Solo's the QWZ with ease. The trick with FC builds is to scatter mobs like ten pins and then pick off the survivors as they slowly make their way back.
