Beginner's Help and Guides / Need Cav guidance
« on: May 05, 2012, 05:49:11 pm »
Hi guys I am now a gen 2 char and before I played a 1h/shielder/thrower hybrid, which I used as dedicated thrower for most of the time.

So now I wanted to play cav and of course I checked the solid builds, but those are hybridized with low athletics again, which would make me slow as the previous build again. I disliked 5 athletics + shield, simply because I would be unable to pick my fight, which is also true for riding.

So this time I wanted something quicker so I can reliably pick my fights on my own and having an escape route to getting overwhelmed should my awareness fail me once.

The build I want should also not exceed high amounts of costs so I can atleast float on even money on a long streak of x1 multiplier.

So the the biggest armor I am willing to accept would be light kuyak +36ish leg + 30ish head. As I have sold my first loompoint doing foot rounds to save money would be out of question, however I would still want to keep my upkeep to reasonable levels, that is why currently I am equipped with:

Nasal Helm (0,9 weight 26 armor)
Light Kuyak (12.9 weight 42 body, 10 leg)
Mail Chausses (1,7 weight, 27 armor)
Heavy lance + Rouncey.

Normally I would tend with the courser, but the 20k payout does make me wonder if those 5 speed are really worth it at all and the second equipment question would be if I should pick up a second polearm as weapon.

This is the build I am currently aiming for:

12str
24agi

4 IF
4 PS
8 ATHL
8 Riding
5 Weaponmaster

148 Polearm WPF

I am unsure though, if riding 8 suffices to pick my fights or if 7 athl/riding would be more then enough, so criticism and advise is highly welcome.

Keep in mind for my needs, that I am a noobcav and prone to getting dismounted, which I don't terribly mind but might spend that time learning to block manually aswell. For my targets I would like, if possible, to be a threat to HA's, but I guess they will eat my rouncey rather quick :/

So if you have suggestions for itemloadout or character build or any other useful cav tips let me know :)
