After a couple of years of playing this and having dickless cav just run a damned train on me, I've decided that if you can't beat em, you might as well join them. I'm looking for any suggestions anyone has on what a really good cav build is. I will be playing on battle as well as in strat battles. I think I'll prefer a lancer, and don't mind using one of the four directional polearms as a backup in case some piker gets lucky.
Please, masters of the dickless cav, lend me your builds.

You need 8 riding so you can enjoy the benefits of this.

18/18 is a pretty good build

Someone get this man the most dickless heavy cav build possible!
-
9/33 jousting lance, any horse. Riding, IF, WM, Shield only skills; no PS as couching unaffected by PS. Not viable in most Strategus battles is the downside of this build, but it's the most fun I've had as melee cavalry.

Dickless cav hmmm first thing comming to my mind is: pick up an xbow
-
Word of advice, before commiting full-on to a lancer build be sure to check out how much lance angle turn limitations bother you. Just in case you still had the native idea of stabbing somewheree else but the direct front of your horse.

This. Then grab an arabian cavalry sword and a decent shield and you're good to go. An armored horse if you really want to be dickless! :P

It really depends on what horse you want to ride.
I'd suggest going 24/15, since this is the best "build" for your character to be an all around beast. 21/18 is what I recommend if you want to ride the fastest horse (courser) and not worry about being overextended and cavalry chasing you down. The best horse in the game is the arabian warhorse, but it requires going 21 agility (18/21), so I'd recommend not going with that route.
I'd recommend 24/15, 21/18 and 18/21 as the builds for a straight "polearm" cavalry build. If you want to go 1h/shield/polearm/cavalry then you're going to have to go 21/15, 18/18, or 18/21.
Here's the build I recommend, and recommend you ride a destrier, padded warhorse, or war horse (had to do this manually on a STF char since all the crpg char calculators are offline this morning)
24/15 at level 30
Convert 8 skills to attributes
Iron Flesh: 2
Power Strike: 8
Athletics: 5
Riding: 5
Weapon Master: 3
Polearm WPF: 130
I believe you start with 35 HP and get 1 hitpoint per strength, 2 for each IF, so that would give you 53hp with this build.

Don't get this man a dickless cav build! Get him a dick! And get his feet back on the ground, where they should be!
