I already have this build with three xbows and 11 wm. It's pretty fun. Only 12 bolts so you'll have to look around for them as you're fighting lol. Also, archers will be able to tell you have 2 xbows because you'll carry one on your back... unless you have three, in which case, surprise!

I say yes. You shouldn't say no just because something takes a little work... if it's something people want, and someone wouldn't mind doing it, it would be a shame not to have it.

I've updated the OP with the two builds I'm debating. Is 5 hp and 6ps worth having less archery skill?

I don't know WHY I didn't change that 17 to a 15. Brain fart. Anyways, I've changed it to 15 and got a bunch more points to play with. Tell me what you think of the new version, please!
(Also, I like IF. I'd like to be able to take a couple hits without being a tin can, so my archery won't be super-god awful.

I have a vision for an all around fighter, who uses a sword, shield, and bow, and can ride a Destrier and do some HA if I feel like it. Here's the builds I've come up with.

General Discussion / Steppe Horse...
« on: February 25, 2012, 07:20:49 am »
Hi. I've been using the build from this link: (http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,9160.0.html) [hardest hitting HA build], and with 4 riding, there aren't a lot of choices for horses. I chose the Steppe Horse. High maneuverability seemed like a good idea when you're trying to dodge around others shooting arrows into unsuspecting enemies...
I hadn't noticed at the time, but pretty much no one uses Steppe Horses. Why? Because they're pretty terrible. They suck, hard. Instead of spouting opinions though, let's look at some numbers.
Let's compare it to the next lower level horse, the Rouncey.
Cost: +1502 Gold
hit points: -10
body armor: -2
difficulty: +1
speed: -5
maneuver: +6
charge: -6
The only benefit is the addition of 6 maneuverability. For that, everything is worse. And not by small amounts, either. 10 less HP + 2 less body armor mean that HX can 2 shot or occasionally 1 shot my horse out from under me. The -5 speed means that any lancer on a Rouncey can catch me and spear the crap out of me, and the reach of the lances means that I can't even maneuver away from them any significant amount before they spear the crap out of me.
Has anyone had any kind of success with the Steppe Horse? I really want it to be good, but I can't seem to work with it.
edit: Upon further examination, the problem may be that the Rouncey is way too good for it's location on the price/difficulty scale. Compare it to the Palfrey, which costs 3k more, it's ridiculous. The only thing the Palfrey has is 1 more speed, the Rouncey has everything else higher or the same. 10 more HP, 4 more Armor, 2 more charge. WTF...

This is my current build. I'm halfway to next level, then I will have lvl 21 agi. 
I am just wondering what I can/could have do/done better, for next gen.

Level 28 currently.
Not sure what to put my points in for level 30/31. Next level I'll put my skill points into WM and Athletics and a point into Agility. I use a Long Espada Eslavona and a Steel pick with Light Leather, Leather Gloves, and Khergit Leather Boots, unless I manage to save up some money. Then I spend it all on repairs for Gothic Plate, Guilded Hourglass Gauntlets, Splinted Leather Greaves over Mail and a Winged Great Helmet. I also have a Plain Heater Shield that I typically only use against ranged.
Any critiques? For next character I want to be a mounted morningstar-type character. I'm also not sure what I should loom. Thanks for the help, pretty noob here.
