Title: Viable build
Post by: MR_FISTA on February 16, 2012, 10:21:39 pm
Ok for my next build I'm thinking of

27 str
15 ath

9 power strike

5 athletics

3 weapon proficiency

Weapon: Glaive of course.

Any suggestions, I have read WP is pointless and I should go 3 IF instead, just putting this out there..

Per WaltF4's Weapon attack speed and proficiency and not agility (http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,2531.msg62636.html#msg62636):

Let's use a Spear (98 speed) for approximation purposes.

y=-0.0008x+1.1071

For 115 WPF (0 WM), swing speed would be 1.0151 seconds.

For 141 WPF (4 WM), swing speed would be 0.9943 seconds.

This translates to a 2.05% increase in swing speed. However, the absolute difference in swing speed is only 0.0208 seconds, or 20.8 milliseconds.

I haven't tried this myself, but next gen I plan to.  +6 hitpoints could mean the difference between 3 hits killing you and 4 hits killing you.

Just made 38 kills in 1 round in siege with my 36 3 build (12 power strike), would the extra athletics make a massive difference to me and would I be able to make even more kills per round with a 27/15 build.

Yes, it is a viable and fun build. WM or IF (to fit playstyle)
You could even put the points in riding and ride a rouncey if you're using pole arms. Lance ahoy~

I think it's great. I dhose a little different and went 30/12 (3wm) and it is also great. Don't pu 3 points to riding or the other cav will rape you all the time, it just isn't enough.

I do great with 3 riding in my 30/9 build. Although enemy lancers have advantages, cav to cav is all timing and positioning.
