Title: Iron flesh worth it ?
Post by: Aldric on July 26, 2011, 05:37:42 pm

Hail !
I got a 19/18  Ultra heavy Cav.
6 riding
6 PS
4 shield
4 WM

with a champ plated charger and full gothic plate. I use rarely lance ( due to fail speed ) but i bump slash with a long espada or a broad axe.
I also use a knighly heater shield 

Should i put 2-4 IF ? Is it really usefull ?

Put 1 more point into weaponmaster before that.

Ironflesh is worth it to a certain degree. It's the stat you dump skill points in when you maxed the rest.

yes, more wpf is always good

and generally, wm > if

i would either put both points in weapon mastery or even consider taking an extra point in shield. but it all comes down to playstyle.

p.s. try out the Arabian Cavalry Sword. it's extra reach is very nice, especially on such a large horse

So if i go +2 WM, i can put the rest in IF with a decent build ?

It's probably better to put points into any other skill you can, THEN into IF.

Having said that I absolutely love IF (esp when stacked since you're probably going to be heavy str at that point) and it is probably worth it making a build that specifically can take advantage of having some IF.  All about personal preference though.

I personally feel that ironflesh is only really noticeable if you stack it high AND wear fairly heavy armor. I have not found it to be much use if you only use a couple points or wear light armor.  I've had 8 ironflesh before while wearing my cheap outfit and I might be able to take one extra hit. So many people are stength builds(on US) that it doesn't seem very effective to me.

Taking one extra hit is a big deal.
