Alternatively, I suppose you could come up with a custom enhancement for TK making it usable as a 'physical' action not requiring Concentrate, maybe another use of Cosmic, which could then be combined with Melee.
Fair point, I had forgot about the concentrate maneuver; I have tried some different builds w/ and w/o CM and some other ad hoc enhancements and it mostly adds up to around the same without some serious munchkining. While fun to build as TK, ST is definitely cleaner.
