WPF in throwing... do they increase accuracy significantly?

I have question about throwing.

How about increasing its accuracy? I mean: I hear'd about PT increasing accuracy, but I want to use only very light things, like daggers or shurikens.

So I will have only a little PT. Other thing, I can have about 150 WPF in throwing.

So my question is: will about 150 WPF be enough to very small reticule with daggers/knives/shurikens? I want to kill archers only, my main weapon will be katana.

Don't know.

Never got that combination. If there was still a SP, you could try it there.

Basically, 100 wpf is about the equivalent of 2 levels in PT in accuracy and I'm pretty sure the reticule of throwing knives is nearly closed at 6 or 7 PT.

Should mean that about 3 or 4 PT is enough to get a tight reticule with 150 wpf in throwing.

The problem is even if you are number 1 in NA you are still only number 467 in EU or the worst in AUS(number 17)

Level 31 (0 xp)

Hit points: 50
Strength: 15
Agility: 24
Converted: 6
Ironflesh: 0
Power Strike: 5
Shield: 0
Athletics: 8
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 5
Weapon Master: 8
One Handed: 1
Two Handed: 140
Polearm: 1
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 1
Throwing: 128

Would it be good? + katana + light armor + most accurace throwing weapon.

I need to ask you guys: what weapon is most accurace, then?

I can also dont take any throwings, and then my build would be like that:

Level 31 (0 xp)

Hit points: 60
Strength: 15
Agility: 24
Converted: 6
Ironflesh: 5
Power Strike: 5
Shield: 0
Athletics: 8
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 0
Weapon Master: 8
One Handed: 1
Two Handed: 174
Polearm: 1
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 1
Throwing: 1

What do you think is better? Pure 2h spammer or 2h with support of throwings, just for you to know: i WONT use any heavy throwings, only light daggers versus archers!

Yes, throwing gets accuracy with WPF now.

If you want to be a "efficient" hybrid thrower/melee you should go at least 6 PT  with a more balanced build.
You can use dart for archer for it's flying speed, but you will realise fast that archer are not the natural prey of thrower.
What i mean is that if you want to throw just to kill archer you will get owned.
Archer as the advantage in a shooting match.
With 6 PT and 100wpf in throwing you will be efficient enough to use heavy axes correctly and you will have a lot of fun with it. 
You will also have a very good accuracy with dart, but nothing close to an archer accuracy.

Why do ppl plan their builds for lvl 31? It takes too long to reach. I usually retire as soon as I hit 31, because I've already become bored with my character.

Because we have an attention span and/or realize that rather than retire a billion times to try out a new build we can just roll a new character?

I have 16 characters currently, 7 of which are level 30 working on 31 (the rest I don't really play except for the occasional lulz).  If I get bored with one playstyle, I swap to another toon and he begins working on levelling from 30-31+.  Sure I don't get xp multipliers or spiffy heirlooms but meh, I also don't have to deal with relevelling just to get a bit of play doing something different.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

but in the future, you will have 1 main character, and that will be a big part of the game.
So you might aswell work on him now.
