I'd say avoid the 7 PS builds as a 1-hander. Go for either 18 or 24 Strength. The difference between 6 and 7 PS has never struck me as worthwhile (with a 1-hander)- more athletics would serve better.

Maybe try it before you talk bullshit :wink:
Your accuracy increases and your dmg.
Mounted throwers and bowmen (not crossbowmen) also will have their damage multiplied by

I noticed a huge difference from 6 to 7, but that was when I was new almost 2 years ago.It's still a difference. The massive strenght/ironflesh stacking and loomed armors make life hard for shielders these days, as long as you don't use steel picks and shit like that. I respeced and now go for a 21/18 (lvl31) build, cause 6 ps feels too weak especially with low cut damage weapons.
Dear community members, thanks for your import. However 2H is a big no no. So, this is what I have in mind:isnt that Lalien's build? (the 21/18 pole/1h
Option 1 - Most likely will be this. I'm not ranged fan (including throwing) and I'm bored of 2H so 1H and poles it is. Not impressive build (especially for level 35) but it is sturdy and reliable build which allows me to play any map I want any way I want. Want to be 1H cav, no problem. Want to be lancer, no problem. Want to be footman with a shield and a sword, no problemo. Want to use poleaxe/glaive/glb, again it's perfectly feasible. Want to be pikemy old friend, I can and be very effective as one. For me, this is ultimate melee hybrid build and closest build to simulate true knight. I've redistributed wpf like this because I'm fine with lower 1H wpf (I don't spam left swing, I prefer chambered attacks) and most importantly, because I want to have 100 effective wpf in brigandine with both polearm and one handed weapon.

Option 2 - xbowgaycav hybrid (thanks for tip arrowblood but I would kill myself after 20 minutes of playing that my old friendgy build)

Option 3 - Stronger than Butan (will have to respec again when wpf overhaul comes and I'm not sure I want to play as total strength douchebag in plate like b0nk for example)

Archery doesn't interest me on main, I thought about hybrid for a long time but those builds are simply bad for such high level. I'll make dedicated archer (most likely) or hybrid archer (less likely) out of my level 33 alt (which will be ready in half a year if current cRPG survives that long).
I think you should, at first, decide what class do you want to play.
After that i advise you to think which build do you like to play (stregth, balanced, agi)
If you want to play at strat battles you shouldn't do agi or multiclass builds (sad, but true)
After that you may try STF to test your build! :)

isnt that Lalien's build? (the 21/18 pole/1h
I don't think so, haven't seen him with using one handed weapons. Ujin has similar build, difference is that he's lower level so he probably doesn't have IF.ah, with your looms its a great build though, i would play something like that @ lv 35
Hoplite needs more shield and less WM. As pure Hoplite,you should take the Huscarl Shield.For me 4 shield works fine since I use plate covered shield and warspear (which is really good weapon without shield), so my shield doesn't break too fast and I don't care even when it does. And yes, it's not really pure hoplite, but a hoplite/pure polearm hybrid :)

That's what i'd like to get to eventually
Well, I want to use shield because I like the looks and need one when mounted but.. my right mouse button isn't working very well. I don't have many issues with blocking but when I need to hold block, my mouse betrayed me many times. Indestructible shield isn't an option because that would require holding block constantly and I'm unable to do so.

Actually it is my MAIN build....yup i gues that point is in Weapon master cause 5 is enough for melee but if i see youre gold you might be able to buy a respec when you reach 35 :D

I failed my respec from 18/24 for 27/18 (I forgot one point I think...) :?

18/21 lancer/1h/shield hybrid. Being able to play piker, hoplite, one-hander, poleaxer and lancer with pretty much full effectivity in one build would be my preferable choice. :)
If you go 18/18 you can add throwing, making the most diverse hybrid, but you lose the ability to use the arab warhorseI doubt he will have enough wpf for pole, 1h & throwing. :P

You don't need much wfp for polearms, or even for 1h.ah, you mean exchanging pole/1h for throwing?
18/21 lancer/1h/shield hybrid. Being able to play piker, hoplite, one-hander, poleaxer and lancer with pretty much full effectivity in one build would be my preferable choice. :)Yup, seems better than 21/18 :wink:
As I use the Langes Messer, I want some 1h wpf to reduce the repair chance and some 2h to make better use of it.Your highest melee proficiency is used to determine the repair chance for all melee weapons (source (http://forum.meleegaming.com/general-discussion/using-1h-weapons-as-2h/msg199810/#msg199810)). Also note that 50 WPF has a pretty hefty damage penalty compared to 100 WPF (-7.5% total damage).

Waste of points imho. You should make it completely the opposite. That longspear you're carrying will rape your high athletics.
Why is that? Longspear is just 2.5 weight. Same as a Danish Greatsword, and that doesn't stop people from using high athletics greatsword builds.
Maybe wpf helps but I know that carrying longspear with 1 wpf and 8 ath felt like having 5 ath and since pentaly is percentage based I bet difference will be even bigger for 10 ath char.at 8 Athletics right now, I outrun most other melee, which is what counts.
Also no IF... I understand that some people don't like it because it's cheesy and OP skill but if that's not the case, you're making huge mistake. IF is the most important battle/siege skill by far, even if you have 0 armor on you. And with extra armor its usefulness grows exponentially.
That's a mean build and a bit gay. Was thinking about it but decided to stick with balanced hybrid.

Agi: 47

Now charge people at mach 3 and railgun their faces in with MW stones.

I would still like to see how fast you can run with 47 agi 15 athletics with no armor and just a practice dagger. Will it outrun sumpter horses ? I remember this guy called "Bystander" running around with 13 ath and when I first saw him I was like "What the fuck are you ??"
