  Groan is it really up to me?....
  
  Suggest trying the following.. Bear in mind that all of the Might powerset is kinda Hulk smashy.
  
  PowerHouse (Link to this build)
  
  Name:
  
  Archetype: Freeform
  
  Super Stats:
  Level 6: Strength (Primary)
  Level 10: Constitution (Secondary)
  Level 15: Intelligence (Secondary)
  
  Talents:
  Level 1: The Behemoth
  Level 6: Physical Conditioning
  Level 9: Body and Mind
  Level 12: Healthy Mind
  Level 15: Diplomatic
  Level 18: Impressive Physique
  Level 21: Shrug It Off
  
  Powers:
  Level 1: Clobber
  Level 1: Defiance (Rank 2, Rank 3)
  Level 6: Mighty Leap
  Level 8: Thunderclap (Rank 2, Rank 3)
  Level 11: Enrage (Rank 2, Rank 3, Giant Growth)
  Level 14: Havoc Stomp (Rank 2, Rank 3, Accelerated Metabolism)
  Level 17: Haymaker (Rank 2, Nullifying Punch)
  Level 20: Conviction (Rank 2, Rank 3)
  Level 23: Hurl
  Level 26: Retaliation
  Level 29: Molecular Self-Assembly
  Level 32: Masterful Dodge (Rank 2)
  Level 35: Unleashed Rage (Rank 2, Rank 3)
  Level 38: Shockwave (Rank 2, Leg Rumbler)
  
  Travel Powers:
  Level 6: Superjump
  Level 35: Teleportation
  
  Specializations:
  Strength: Swole (3/3)
  Strength: Aggression (2/2)
  Strength: Juggernaut (3/3)
  Strength: Overpower (2/3)
  Warden: Fortified Gear (3/3)
  Warden: Ruthless (2/2)
  Warden: Tenacious (2/2)
  Warden: The Best Defense (3/3)
  Vindicator: Aggressive Stance (2/2)
  Vindicator: Merciless (3/3)
  Vindicator: Focused Strikes (2/3)
  Vindicator: Mass Destruction (3/3)
  Mastery: Strength Mastery (1/1)
  
  This at least will be fairly survivable and give both close and ranged attacks. As you go on you might wanna trade Thunderclap for Resurgance depending on how you go. Masterful dodge might seem a bit odd but there is no better active defence at this time.
  
  This is not intended to be a tank as such merely a survivable DPS, if you want to live dangerously get Unstoppable as your passive, you will hit very hard but you will also be fragile which isn't very Hulky if you ask me.
  
  If you want to duel you had best invest in Crippling Challenge and Nailed to the Ground advantages - Hurl is a good candidate for this. Shockwave will give you a ranged AOE but you could trade this for something else if you wish.
  
  The Nullifying Punch adv to Haymaker will be useful against vampires or any other self healing enemy but rank 3 is also a good choice.
  
  Y'know you could do worse than just make your own way to 40 and explore the powerset on your own. Just remember to get a self heal, an energy unlock and an active defence somewhere along the line.

  In regards to the build above, if having an Intelligent "hulk" is anathema to you, Recovery works very well in a Might-based build, allowing you to pick up an extra power of your choice in MSA's place. The energy return from Defiance and Enraged stacks is quite sufficient without it.
  
  I would highly recommend Aggressor Rank 3 in any STR/CON/Enrage-based build. The list of synergies it has with this type of build is quite long.
