Best build is the one you ENJOY playing with! There is always somebody somewhere who can kick your butt, maybe not one on one if you're really that good, but why go one on one if you have some mates

.
I simply got a pic in my head of what kind of character I'd like to have and just went for it. Have FUN. All the hours of grinding and farming can turn this game into a chore/job rather than entertainment. SO, build, outfit a character that makes you say "Cool".
Of course there are 'standard' builds, you can find em easy enough around these forums, but each build has their strengths and weaknesses, so...pick the one with the strengths that you like.
1 or 2 forces, well, depends. Are you planning on going all the way to lvl 150 (if when it becomes available)? Then have 1force and 1 skill fully maxed? or something else. At the end of the day, you can always curse heart unwanted skills down (expensive but possible), but that won't be necessary for a long time. So...I'd say, go for it, try out 2 forces. You'll use up some sp, that's all.
Above all, have fun with it
