As a companion to Martial Combat for Blasters and as a set I am sure many players who enjoy Defenders and Corruptors could develop a concept around, I would like to propose a new blast set!

I present: Thrown Blade Blast (the name is open to change!)

Blade Toss - ST minor lethal + toxic dot dmg -def
Blade Throw - ST moderate lethal + toxic dot dmg -def
Blade Fan - cone aoe moderate lethal + toxic dot dmg -to hit
Vital Strike - ST high lethal + toxic dot dmg -res
Pinpoint - as per traditional aim + increases the toxic dot dmg from the set
Shrapnel Blade - targeted aoe moderate lethal + toxic dot dmg -res
Pommel Strike - ST mag 3 stun minor smashing dmg
Flurry of Blades - narrow cone superior lethal dot (3 ticks) + toxic dot dmg -def
Blade Dance - PBAOE Tier 9 Nuke extreme lethal +toxic dot dmg -to hit

I choose a variety of secondary debuff effects for the attacks to give the set some interesting choices. The concept basically revolves around poisoned blades of varying sorts leaving customization options for the animations. I'd imagine there's be a shuriken option, a knife option, maybe a sai option, etc.

Since I believe thrown weapons don't have a "draw" animation the set should play nice with the other secondaries. The varied secondary effects allow for a variety of IO sets to be leveraged. All in all I think this would give players an option they've been asking for a while much like the Martial Combat/Assault sets.
