"Final" Build for Level 33

[Nehvar]

I'm currently Lv33 with the following build.

    Strength: 18
    Agility: 24
    Hit points: 65

    Skills to attributes: 8

    Ironflesh: 6
    Power Strike: 6
    Athletics: 8
    Weapon Master: 6

    Two Handed: 158

Given a free respec I would probably go 21/21, maxing PS and ATH and balancing between IF and WM.  I find that while six athletics is too slow for me, eight is not significantly better than seven.  Not enough to warrant frequently feeling 'out-gunned' in melee anyway.  Also, you can't catch most archers while wearing armor [kuyak], even with eight athletics.  So there's no benefit there either.

So yeah, my recommendation is 21/21 if you like WPF like I do.  24/21 if you don't.  Seven athletics is enough.

**Edit: Of course, this is from the perspective of a two-hander that primarily uses a highland claymore and a HBS.  I do have a polearm alt but I have nowhere near the time on him as I do my main.

you will easily reach 33, i would plan for 35(doable over sure a longer time)

and go for a 21/24 build

Level 35 (142 278 448 xp)

    Strength: 21
    Agility: 24

    Skills to attributes: 10

    Ironflesh: 4
    Power Strike: 7
    Athletics: 8
    Weapon Master: 7

    Polearm: 170

that way you have good ath and will be rarely outspamed

EDIT: i go for 36, will be at 35 in 2-4 months from now and then it takes at least another year i guess even more to get to 36 ^^

Since I played a long time 21/21 at lvl 29, 30 and I finaly understood that athletics have much more importance than maneuverability of weapon,
I can now start my final build 24/21 as medium armored heavy polearm, without WM!

The problem with these builds without weapon master is theres a chance you will get gimped at some point, and these builds are for the ultra long term. Taking 0 weapon master and still attacking fast seems like its virtually exploiting the system

Well, not really, first you start a basic build 18/18, 18/21 with 4, 5 WM then you respec at lvl 29/30 and go for 18/21 21/21 then 24/21.

I'm level 30 with 111 wpf and 1.6:1 K:D ratio with 423/257 for now. I respeced around 10 times to try many combinations, even 15/27, 18/24 and I finally found that 21 agi is a good choice with my gear.

Not really, I could never beat on duel an agi whore with 150 wpf and over and with my slow weapon. My build is much for a support build rather than an hybrid lone warrior. It's a style of play, mine.
