Getting to 33 is a very long process.

I'd advise heirlooming at all times, untill you get an insane amount of them.

I'd say you need 6 ATH to effectively use a short weapon like the axe against fast GLA, which are are becoming more and more popular these days.

I can't decide if I should loom myself, I guess I will, 3 more damage is quite a boost, especially for 1H. And 38 cut axe will rock, so I say go for it and heirloom. Besides, getting to 33 is too much of a pain without an enormous generation boost.

Make a build for level 30. Anything above that is just gravey. I'd say it's more fun retiring. If you really don't want to retire, make a build that's done on 31 or 32. Else you'll feel like you have to grind, which sucks.

The build is fine, but i'd probably consider going for 6 athletics aswell as a 1h + shield.

how to get ath 6? maybe with only 4 at shield?

im still with the idea to go 33, the moment i am 31 with half way to 32, and in the future, i hope to increase my agility to 18, ath=6, weapon mastery=6, shield=6

btw any lvl 33+ around?

Shoot for level 32 (= 2 retirements or roughly 17.6 million), if you manage to get to level 33 (=4 retirements or roughly 37 million) then convert the extra attribute to 2 skill point and use your 3 skill points for that level to master more of your skills. 

Your stats posted above are incorrect by the way as you would actually be 21-18 not 16 and would have more skill points available to assign.

Level 32 build:

Convert 4 skill points to 2 attribute points

Strength: 21
Agility: 18

IF: 5
PS: 7
Shield: 5
Athletics: 6
WM: 6

If you ever get to level 33 just make IF = 7 and Shield = 6 OR give yourself 3 riding and do that for fun.

You could try it.  Its equivalent of 3 more retirements to 33, OR you can just make it 4 retirements worth of xp by retiring, getting another heirloom and go for a completed build at 32 as you are going to have to wait the equivalent of 2 level 1 to 31 processes from 32 to 33 and thats really tedious without an already completed build, whereas by retiring you can have a done build at 32 that can still enjoy improved stats at 33 after the equivalent of 2 retirements worth of xp instead of 3.  Then you can or cannot get to level 33, but its not a have-to feeling because your build is incomplete, which makes the whole process drag a lot more.  You can just ignore the xp after level 32 and not even think about 33, so if you do reach it in a month or 2 its not a big deal, as you have had the pleasure of playing a completed build the whole time.
