I want to make an Asian flying warrior type of character, along the lines of, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, "Hero", "House of Flying Daggers".

What would you reccomend AT and Powerset wise?

Costume and theme is easy enough but to get the actual skills what would you do?

Martial Arts/Super Reflexes scrapper with combat jumping/superjump.


Be well, people of CoH.

I like it but then there is no sword, so maybe broadsword with a Chinese dao?

id suggest a BS/ SR or even WP. WP can be built to be very human martial artist feeling. Id say focus on unsurpressable movemet boosts like slotting up sprint,hurdle, combat jumping and swift. Use hover in short burst for the whole running on leaves and twig thin branches effect.

I was thinking about hover but I am not sure of the combat movements allowed with it

All powers are allowed with hover and any other pool power. Unless the power specifies otherwise in the description. Example: you can't attack while using phase shift or the tier 5 flight power. they are only effect self powers.

Well, some powers require you to be on/near the ground to use, though. But that shouldn't be a problem for a Broadsword/SR Scrapper.

I would actually suggest Katana or Dual Blades for a character like that. Katana has a Chinese broadsword as an option, and all the chinese swords are available to Dual Blades.

Broadsword is far too slow and clunky to bring to mind an agile Asian warrior.

And get Ninja Run if you don't have it yet.
