Be paitent young padawan. 
Okay here's my point in Force Field and Psychic Blast (From lvl 30 and lvl 14 characters)
Force Field is my second favorite (actually it was my fave but lack of solo-ability of FF made Radiation my top of the list defender) defender set. FF is easy to use, fire and forget set. Golden triple is your key powers (Deflection Shield, Insulation Shield and Dispersion Bubble). As you can read their describtion in game DS and IS are ally shields. Dispersion Bubble is PBAoE shield which covers a large area, gives you and your team slight defense bonus. But it's most important ability is giving you and your allies Mez resistance.
Other than this 3, you have Personal Force Field, your panic and on most situation your life-saver power. Force Bolt is a good utility tool. You can use Psionic Lance (your sniper blast, one of the best damaging powers in the set) without worries after you KB a villian. Detention Field is a cage power, which makes a villian untouchable by you and your team mates, also villian can't help his allies. In most teams that powers frowned upon, because people tend to attack that villian.
Repulsion Field and Repulsion Bomb are situational powers. Repulsion Bomb has a long recharge, Repulsion Field has a huge end cost. Both have KB effect.
Force Field is a huge repel sphere. I never used it but people says melee characters don't love that power that much.
For Psychic Blast, make sure you get two powers, Telekinetic Blast and Will Domination. They are most damaging, fast recharging powers of the set. Also your sniper blast has longest range in the game. If you practice you can be a good puller. Psychic blast powers set has -recharge side effect on all its powers.
Also if you need some information you can alway use Search function of boards (i am sure both sets are discussed before). Or you can look guides section. In USA forums there's a good guide for Force Field defenders.
And most of all be paitent. There's a whole week and most people don't read forums on weekends (they mostly play game ^^ ).
Have fun with your defender.
Force Field is an easy primary to play and pretty fun too. Most of the functionality of the set ( as far as others is concerned ) is covered by Deflection Shield, Insulation Shield and Dispersion Bubble. This means you don't have a very tight build and can go and get useful pool powers, I have the Leadership and Medicine pool on mine, as well as well slotted blasts at level 32ish.
As for powers that Knightly has not elaborated on, I have both Repulsion Bomb and Force Bubble on my FF/Son defender. Repulsion Bomb I'm not convinced by, it gives you some chaotic control though, it will annoy people if used indescriminately.
Force Bubble is a large repel field. It is pretty fun when you get it working well, but does rely on careful positioning. It is good for use in smallish spaces, you can trap enemies in corners with it.
@Unthing ... Mostly on Union.
Hmm but i want to tell something. With IO sets you can close your big weakness a little. Force Fielders (bubblers as common name) have one weakness; Sleep. Dispersion Bubble won't give you defense against this and you can find yourself more than one occasion with flying ZZZZs over your head. Carry at least one break free, because while you are sleeping you are vulnerable to holds as well as your team mates.
Yar,the problem with the bubbler is the zzzz's and the holds they stack on you (well, for me in pvp, pve ain't such a big issue with a team around you that can spare the time to slap CM on ya)
I am hoping to solve this through some IO sets, does anyone have any ideas who this type of build would look like and which IO sets to use?
Hey guys. Not really great fan of defenders, but I wanna try one for a concept sg me and mates are building. Any advice as to how FF/Psychic Blast would work? I havn't played a defender post-19 lvl, so...
