What is ur main attack, though- DU or Haymaker? Ur also lacking an AoE dps attack.
Also, ya took an MA from as ur toggle, but those scale off of Dex, and ya don't have Dex as an SS here. Enrage could work here w/ the attacks taken, but isn't as thematic and precludes you from taking advantage of Rush.
Lastly, keep in mind that although Elusive Monk and BCR/RR are good for dodge builds, it'll be a total ~18-20% base dmg penalty for having both running.. which is pretty hefty.

2. I want to get my enemy with haymaker, that's why dragon uppercut. He will run way. Also, haymaker has decent advantage, and dragon uppercut has decent energy gain, so that's why i took those 2 attacks.
3. I'd take enrage, but i think it's only for UR builds. I don't really want to make another UR build,because i already have speedster that use it.
4. Yeah it will be, but that's why i've got WoTW. I will have pretty good damage and not bad dodge. + i'll run it in DPS role.
P.S.: or i'll delete parry and i get... suriken storm! That's looks like he spins and shoots web.
Kinda makes sense, but if both DU and Haymaker are going to be ur main attacks, then you'll want Rank3 in both of them, so ya get the most dps from them. If ya need more adv points, ya can prob get rid of the small stun adv on the lunge.
Enrage isn't just for UR builds- UR is just a good cd to use w/ Enrage.
But if ur keeping a MA toggle (which is good w/ DU) then you'll still want Dex as one of ur main stats, and it'd be better if it was an SS then. Ya could go for a STR/Con/Dex (recommended, ya dun need Int SS w/ Rush and Physical Peak), DEX/Con/Int, INT/Dex/Con, DEX/Str/Con, or CON/Dex/Int SS setup to cover that.
Parry isn't bad to keep, though a block enhancer isn't essential either. Ultimately up to you.

Alright. Well, Haymaker is more dps on knock-immune mobs, due to its 50% base dmg bonus on full charge. But DU gets a ~10-15% KI bonus on charge too, and is way better for energy when using a Focus toggle (plus it doesn't knock enemies far out of reach). If ya want to use Haymaker more for Trauma and/or the fun of knocking something far away, but use DU as ur mainstay attack otherwise, then that should work just fine.

As long your toon looks nothing like spiderman at all in any shape or form, your fine.
That's not quite true, mate. I have a few toons who are heavily inspired by existing DC/Marvel characters and have never had any problems from other players or from our GM for them.
As long as you don't make a clone (total copy of name/costume) then you'll be fine. Just make sure that you make some differences to the costume and use a different name.
Just to illustrate this here are a couple of my homages........
Doctor Kabbala
Leatherwing
And they all use builds that the characters they are inspired by would use.

Huh, I like the look of all of them and yeah, its what I ment, as long they not a full on copy your fine :biggrin:
I have a few toons inspired too, not from DC but other games and such

I wanted a fighting style and concept similar to Spider-Man's, with some unique mechanics. Recluse is highly acrobatic, typically hitting his opponents with a charged Demolish and a trio of Thundering Kicks before backflipping away with Evasive Maneuvers to activate stealth, then returning for a Setup-buffed Shadow Strike.
Stan Lee's original idea for Spidey had him get his powers from a magic ring, which I adopted to use Binding of Aratron and Energy Swinging together, giving Recluse great looking web-like abilities.
You could swap out Night Avenger for Way of the Warrior and keep almost everything else as-is. Depending on your thematic preference you could go more gadets than magic and use Binding Shot and Entangling Mesh along with the original Swinging power.

Looks nice! Well, i used binding of Araton before, but now it has smoke-like aura, so i changed build. By the way, did you change you Downshift's build? I saw you had a great build on him, but mb you changed something in it
Nice one! I was using Binding of Araton before devs nerfed it and made it smoke-like power. Btw, did you change Downshift's build? Dodge is a bit nerfed now, lolz
Recluse gets to 95% Dodge after a full combo of Thundering Kicks, although he'll lose a lot of that on a successful dodge due to Floating Lotus Blossom. Still pretty good odds overall for using an Offensive Passive. He requires a very particular and careful playstyle to maintain his buffs and set up his attacks, but I like that he feels very different from anything else, and very Spidey-esque.
