Force blader advice please.......

[Brutality]

OK, today I'll be hitting lvl 60.

Full str blader, atm:

Bich 59
Force 52
Fire 50
Light 50

I'd appreciate some advice from anyone who's used a blader with force as to how best to set my masteries.

Points to note:
* I've read a lot of topics about bladers, and other builds, and the 'best' use of the various force trees;

* I'm aware that not having ice may/will leave me at a disadvantage in some respects;

* I haven't used ice to any great extent at all, so how I perform atm is how I perceive my abilities to be and I don't intend to revert to ice unless I cap and find I just can't survive;

* I'm deliberately using prot atm a) cos I don't have ice b) cos the only pvp I do is CTF for now

* I don't realistically see myself getting towards 90, so I'm thinking about build for ~80;

* I have force for some very good reasons, so thank you to those who are liable to post about the 'best' elements to use, don't waste your breath saying 'go 90:90:90:30 Bich:Fire:Light:Ice' or whatever - that ain't gonna happen

>>

OK, having said all that:
Ofc Bich and Fire need to be maxed - I doubt that's debatable

So the real question is, do I max Force, little bit of light, or balance the 2?
If I'm aiming for 80, would 80:80:80:60 be the sensible approach?

I need a sensible plan for mastery spread from now on

And should I really look to changing to a prot set at 8D? ( Goddam hideous green outfit )

Thanks in advance

Force+Fire bladers:

Bich 90
Force 90
Fire 90
Cold 30

or

Bich 90
Force 90
Fire 60
Light 60 or Cold 60 or Light 40 + Cold 20

Force+Fire bladers:


Bich 90
Force 90
Fire 60
Light 60 or Cold 60 or Light 40 + Cold 20

Ok......unexpected..

But as I said in my post, ice isn't an option, and I'm planning towards 80-build

Maybe 80:80:70:70 Bich:Force:Fire:Light is reasonable if force should be max'd?

Any other views out there?

I am building a force blader and this is my plan:
90 bich
90 force
90 light
30 fire

Interesting stuff; thx guys

I'll have to have a good hard think about how best to do this to minimise later de-skilling
