i have nearly the same build atm , but with the aspect of pure ht ..ride or die ...all wpf in throwing (163 wpf .. rather too much , i wear nearly all time light-middle stuff - i'll try 120 wpf in throwing & 130 in xbow for dtv , strat & for some variety in playstyle at next gen. but definitely no hx, even if i could
) :
lvl 30 - Skills to attributes: 2
Strength: 15
Agility: 21
Throwing: 163 wpf
Athletics: 7
Riding: 7
Horse Archery: 3
Power Throw: 5
Weapon Master: 7
i can understand you ..tricky to choice , both are nice 18/21 & 15/24.
i played for 2 gen's with unloomed throwing axes , unmounted ..no horse, 1 without shield & 1 gen with a shield & in both ways i had around 125 wpf in throwing & 5 pt. absolutely enough wpf & pt (accuray,speed & dmg) for every kind of axe's even with equip around 22-25 kg ...still deadly. & with 5 pt you can use still jarid's if you want some variety - & they doin' also very nice dmg even with 5 pt.
i myself prefer jarid's over throwing spears (6pt - 18 str.) , doesn't matter if mounted or not .. i don't like them in general. throwing lance's are way too much str needed for my taste .. sure deadly as hell, but maybe somewhat for me on lvl 33-34.
so ... if you like your axes & (eventually) jarid's like me , go 15/24 ... then:
- you can have 7-8 wm too .. more wpf as a hybrid is always good (more at 1h maybe?)
- athletics as the same as wm
- maybe you want horsethrowing too ? .. 3 riding with palfrey is really not that bad , you don't need really ha for accuracy, if you use the combination & advantages of speed accelerate/brake & to throw in righteous moment's.
- or maybe you wanna use a shield ? 3 shield isn't that bad with a plain board shield example (6 weight = 1 slot - 3 slots free for axes ..fit's very well as 1h/thrower).
otherwise .. you'll go 18/21 , as i wrote above ...wm/wpf is good enough with 21 agi & 7 ath is great .. not much differently compared to 8 ath. ..then:
- you can have 6 pt ...noticeable more dmg (sometimes i miss 6 pt). - 120+ wpf is also enough with 6pt & 'round 20 kg armor.
- you can have 6 ps too .. always nice to have.
..but you got 1 skillpoint left then , 1 if with 18 str.. sure , buff's your hp-pool ..but minimal useful , or save up for lvl 32+.
well ... if you plan to level up i would go 18/21 first ..then 18/24 - if not ...15/24. but yes .. both ways are useful , but personally i would choice 15/24.
that's just a viewpoint from my experience as a passioned thrower , but i hope i can help you a bit to decide.
lg, braxli.
edith:
....With 18 Str I could also go for 6PS which is also nice with the 36 cut damage in melee mode... hmmm I never thought about the melee capabilities of this one...
absolutely ... so 18/21 !
