Fun Builds
Shieldinator
Strength: 3
Agility: 39
Skills to attributes: 14
Power Strike: 1
Shield: 13
Athletics: 3
One Handed: 114
Use any low tier shield for hilarity (I believe for some reason low tier shields=more durable than high tier? Not sure why but this is what I experienced) and preferably Nordic Short Sword as it is the only semi plausible weapon you can hehe

Great Lance Speedinator
Strength: 12
Agility: 30
Skills to attributes: 14
Power Strike: 4
Riding: 10
Weapon Master: 3
Polearm: 133
Use a light horse (Arabian WarHorse is best for accuracy of lances, almost guaranteed 1 hit kills) and obviously Great Lance/Jousting Lance for knockdown fun
courser is good for lancing indeed, but lancing does need alot of maneuverability as you have only a limited angle in wich you can use your lance (especially when you couch), offcourse when you are going up someones back that doesnt see you coming you dont have to be able to adapt to his movement (he will keep walking in a straight line). but if
*charging enemy cav frontally
*charging an aware inf man
*fighting at low speed (circling around the inf guy, away from his weapon but ready to ride in on him when you see an opportunity)
in these cases that agi can be pretty nice, even while being lancer. you might have to dodge a swing/stab while stabbing the enemy at the same time.
note that im not cav anymore and was never good at it, but the better cav players always suggested me to go high agi.
if you want a real hybrid you could try the full six hybrid
Level 30

Agility: 18
Hit points: 63
Skills to attributes: 2
Ironflesh: 5
Power Strike: 6
Athletics: 6
Riding: 6

but i think you could get a char with 12 str, max if, about 6 shield skill, 4 ath and get a pretty nice hybrid too. (1h on foot, lance on horse)
i would say try it out and see what you like the most :P
