Title: One Handed/Two Hander/Polearm/Shielder Hybrid
Post by: MayPeX on November 12, 2011, 04:34:00 pm
Soo I had this idea, just for those who like to swap around in melee often. You get a fairly moderate weapon prof across one handed/two handed and polearm.

Here it is!

Strength: 18
Agility: 18
Hit points: 65
Skills to attributes: 2
Ironflesh: 6
Power Strike: 6
Shield: 6
Athletics: 5
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 0
Weapon Master: 6
One Handed: 99
Two Handed: 90
Polearm: 110
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 1
Throwing: 1

Right things I noticed that Polearm could be dimmed to 100 to allow points either to one/two handed. But once you hit level 31 your One handed prof will hit the 100 mark

It's a fairly balanced build I say, (a build I'm going for.)

I've been working on my Weapons Master character too. Still not done leveling. I'm going with this build btw:
(click to show/hide)

Thinking the extra athl is more important to stay alive than the IF. Because of the lower swing speed I want some more mobility. It's also better to use light gear because of that and because it makes the wpf penalty lower. It actually gets on par with the heavy armour, pure builds. It's really great fun, running around picking up random weapons. Makes the battlefield more dynamic and interesting. Too bad the differences in weapons aren't that big. There's such few "special role" weapons and most of them aren't really useful at all. Still fun to spawn with a pike and a dagger, piking a bit. Dropping it and fending of a guy with the dagger (in buildings, the dagger is king!), loot a random MW greatsword/Poleaxe/Pick and just do whatever the hell is needed to be done :D

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)
Strength: 15
Agility: 18

Ironflesh: 5
Power Strike: 5

Horse Archery: 3
Power Draw: 0

Well. you can use best 2handers with polearm wpf. You can try longsword on horseback for example. With crazy stab damage.
You can be horse xbowman\1H from time to time. Or horse xbowman\bumper with LHB. Shoot your bolts, kill shielder, pickup shielders equipment.

Your build is good enough, but with horse it can be even better.

If you want a hybrid between 1h and 2h, this is a great build. You still retain effectiveness of a pure build, can manage both roles effectively.

lvl 30
21 str
18 agi
7ps
6wm
6ath
4 shield

125 1h wpf
111 2h wpf

Best used with a langes messer, you can just press x to change between holding shield in 1h mode, and slinging it on your back in be in 2h mode.

6 shield will be a waste for someone using 2h & poles more than half the time
