Ironflesh is kinda shit tbh, doesn't really do much for you, Ironflesh should always be the lowest stat unless you're going a tank build.

It seems like an alright build to me. But with your total weight being mentioned, it seems like your armor is going to be quite low. You'll have to stick with your team mates and always be looking behind you for the build to work effectively.

Your build is nonsensical from the perspective of a minmaxer who aims for competitive PvP.
21 agi and 7 athletics are too low for reliable skirmishing, and you don't max out the accuracy potential of your heavy crossbow, which is an absolute no-no for stationary snipers.
Your sidearm choice is questionable. The damage stats are not the strongest to begin with, and you sacrifice a great amount of length compared to weapons with similar damage. This is an issue because 7 athletics is quite slow in the current meta, and enemies will easily backpedal and outrange you.
You don't seem to be aware of armor weight being the key variable in crossbow build design. If you want me to help you, I need to know the weight of every piece of armor you're using: helmet, body armor, gloves, shoes.
Source: 600 million exp worth of crossbow gameplay :rolleyes: Not trying to brag, trying to make you help me with helping you :wink:

All builds listed are calculated under the assumption that you want maximum crossbow accuracy, which is a must in my opinion. That's because level 35 does not allow you to move exceptionally fast and your own team might outrun you when you reload, so you are left behind and die. The only way out is camping a faraway point and hitting targets over the distance, and to do that you need max accuracy. Besides, you can't effectively counter archers unless your accuracy corresponds to your crossbow's maximal potential.
The bad news first: If you want your current armor set, the shield, and the heavy crossbow, the end result sucks. This build moves too slowly, and the 1h wpf is obviously too low:
Ironflesh: 1 Power Strike: 5 Athletics: 10 Weapon Master: 10
One Handed: 108 Crossbow: 189
Summary: I recommend using #2 or #4 for now. Consider going higher level. If that's not an option, reduce your armor weight drastically, so #1 and #3 become viable with lower xbow wpf and higher movement speed and 1h wpf while still achieving maximum accuracy.
