Title: 12/X As 2h
Post by: Zakwan on July 09, 2011, 11:33:18 pm
What would you guys say about this build? I would use Miaodao as weapon, and probably something like Kuyak or Black Lamellar Vest as armor.

Will this 12 strenght be too little to actually 1-hit to 3-hit people?ยจ

Thanks for your discussion and answers! :)

I do 24 STR for level 30 since that's the level I play the most at, so I would be at 25 STR at 31

The deal is that I'm going to retire quite soon, and at the moment I'm using Flamberge with a pretty high Strength.

The Ninjas inspire me. I picked up a masterwork Miaodao and I focken loved it, so I'm wondering if 12 strength and rest in Agility would be any good?  Have people tried this?

12str is fine for an agility build. I'd personally go for 27agi.

People who use only strength builds and do nothing butt are full of rubbish. With good footwork and blocking, you'll be great horsekiller, even.

Also, you're never going to 1 hit anyone with 12str and 4ps. You're not going to be fighting plate either. You just can't penetrate the armor with the Miaodiao, unless you're hitting them with the sweet spot every time (one glance can mean death).

Well, yes. This is what I wanted to know.

Playing 18/18 Flamburgererererererer at the moment and I like it pretty much. But I'm not just quite sure if Flamberge is the right weapon for me and if I want to start heirlooming it.
This 12 strength -Agility build would be pretty much a different playstyle, but I think I'm ready for it.

Thanks for your answer

12/27 master race.

Played this build extensively, 4 PS 9 athletics 9 wm, left over wherever the fuck you want.

I've had strength plate armor bundle of stickss crutchers telling me I was lying about being an agi build because I'd kill them in their plate/black armor in 2-3 hits.

You also hit fast and move fast.

Overall it's a very good build, great damage for some reason, great speed, great maneuvrability.

You can really pick your fights easily and if you're a very good blocker and player you could fight pretty much 10 v 1 and last a full minute if not more with 10 bundle of stickss swarming on you.

Aim your strikes at the head and at maximum swing range at  armoured targets and you shall do fine.

I don't even aim at any particular body part and I kill in 1-4 hits depending on the armor.

With 4 PS?

Speed Bonus is a GENIUS mechanic.

I'm at 16/22 as an AGI build, and with 5PS my favored weapon (+1 Heavy Bastard) it's like hitting someone with a foam pool noodle - it just takes forever to kill, unless I hit a leather-clad archer in the back of the head. Better weapons fare better (military cleaver for one) but anyone in medium armor is still going to take a bit of work to chop down.

You should do either 15/21 or go for 18/18 if your build works out like that.

Most of the skill points gain an extra point in intervals of 3.

ie At 15str you get 5ps, at 18str you get 6ps.

if you're going for 12 str without doing an hybrid build go for something like that.

lvl 30

12 Str
30 Agi

14 skill to attributes

4 PS
10 Athl
3 WM

you will get approx 130 in one prof.

 8-)

I like this post, I really do. Which weapon are you swinging?

My weapon of choice personally is the Longsword.

@Dach, I don't think 1 more athletic is worth the loss of a shitload of much needed prof with the low PS you get.

I have a character like that.  It's pretty darn hilarious.

Going lower than 5 PS is perfectly acceptable if you know how to deal with it and have a decent build to back the small amount of power strike up.

Like I said, I've killed several black armor users in 2-3 hits with 4 PS.

Yeah, I know, somehow I fucked up the points like that, swapping Skills for Attributes and whatnot.
Next gen I'm gonna simplify it, just go straight for the STR I want then add AGI.
