Looking for a One Handed Weapon + Shield Build...

[Calibrated_Core]

Anyone have a good Battlefield build? I'm new to C-rpg and trying to find a good balanced build! Thanks for the help!

Hmm that's quite an extreme build.

I'd go for a balanced 18/18 or 15/21 myself. Guess it kinda depends on what weapon you plan on using. With low strength, you'll get more glances and you'll need more hits to kill people.

Here's a more 'all round' 1h + shielder build that will work well with swords:
 

(click to show/hide)

   * Strength: 18
    * Agility: 18
    * Hit points: 63

    * Converted: 2
    * Ironflesh: 5
    * Power Strike: 6
    * Shield: 6
    * Athletics: 6

    * Weapon Master: 6

    * One Handed: 156

Strength 21
Agility 15
2 pts converted

One Handed 146

Ironflesh 7
Power Strike 7
Shield 5
Athletics 5
Weapon master  5

I tried various 1 hander builds and this one is my favourite.  I noticed that I tended to occasionally bounce off heavier armour with PS 6, this does not happen with PS 7 and IF of 7 is a nice boost to health.  With PS 3 like Dravic is suggesting my hits bounced off even medium to low armour frequently.  However I do agree with him that keeping your shield as a 1 hander is a priority.  To that purpose I would suggest that your first heirloom as a shielder should not be a weapon but your shield.  I recently heirloomed my housecarl shield and nowdays at the end of most rounds I still have it in one piece, this is a nice change from having a regular housecarl with shield ability of 4.

If you wnat to be effective and different, go for buckler+warhammer

Sidesword is better but have less style, imo buckler is the best shield
