Good build?

[Xant]

Yea but with 18 agi I get only 6 WM and so less Polearms skill so I don't know...

So how much do the additional 9 weapon proficiency points matter?

[Bl0rk]

So, Xant, in your opinion it would be this build:

(click to show/hide)

    * Strength: 21
    * Agility: 18
    * Hit points: 64

    * Converted: 8
    * Ironflesh: 4
    * Power Strike: 7
    * Shield: 0
    * Athletics: 6
    * Riding: 0
    * Horse Archery: 0
    * Power Draw: 0
    * Power Throw: 0
    * Weapon Master: 6

    * One Handed: 1
    * Two Handed: 1
    * Polearm: 156
    * Archery: 1
    * Crossbow: 1
    * Throwing: 1

Right ?

EDIT: So what now? "STR 21; AGI 18" or "STR 18; AGI 21"? And is the German Poleaxe a good choice, as it costs over 10k?

Which polearm would you recommend me? I won't take the long hafted because it looks ugly as hell imo, also the scythe, the glaive and the voulge... 

I play with a mighty german poleaxe and I am unsatisfied with it, its too slow, too short & too costly compared to other polearms and 2h weapons. If you dont want to be cavalry i suggest you become 2h, as there are currently no better polearms with style.

I'd personally go for 20/18 bl0rk, and 21/18 at level 31.

I suggest you get over the looks, Long Hafted Blade, Glaive and Long Hafted Spiked Mace are the best polearms.

Hi Blork,

The original build I posted was made before the cRPG set of patches (see date of post), and is no longer possible given the high xp requirements and repair costs. That said, I also posted a second post patch build on another page of the same thread, but am still experimenting and have not settled down yet with one build. With reference to crossbow, I continue to enjoy using it and have no points into it. The increased reload speed and minimal reticule advantage from invested points is, in my opinion, better spent on making a single weapon more deadly. I now also have an alt character in cRPG using a two handed blunt weapon, and so far am enjoying it as well (less reach than polearm, but faster animation as already referenced).

I hope this helps, and good luck enjoying the variety of build possibilities that cRPG has.

Alright, then I think I will go with the Long Hafted Spiked Mace, as it has the highest speed rating over the three you mentioned and it has a chance to knockdown.

Or... 2h...

If you dont want to be cavalry i suggest you become 2h, as there are currently no better polearms with style.

But...

stick to polearms, they are much better than 2H these days.

Man, you confuse me 

I'd personally go for 20/18 bl0rk, and 21/18 at level 31.

Ok, then I think I will also do that, so I don't convert 8 but 6 and put more into ironflesh, like you said some posts before.

EDIT: @ Blackstone: Ok sorry I didn't take a look at the date, my fault...

[Punisher]

Man, you confuse me 

How so?

[NuberT]

Long Hafted Blade, Glaive and Long Hafted Spiked Mace are probably the best melee weapons atm, but they will be nerfed and they have just no style. I dont play them..

[BlackMilk]

Strength   15
Agility   24


Ironflesh   4   
Power Strike   5   
Athletics   7   
Weapon master   7

Personally I aim for 30k worth of gear. That still lets me make money. Then once I have 20k in reserve I start switching between gear anywhere from 30-60k.

Really? But only with a solid multiplier, I would say...  Otherwise you'll make some loss with a gear worth of 30k, I guess...

[Xant]

When playing good I make money in 50k gear, so with 30k gear you don't need a huge multiplier.

Long Hafted Blade has just no style?

[Torp]

When playing good I make money in 50k gear, so with 30k gear you don't need a huge multiplier.

If you use the official numbers (5% repair price, 4% break chance) the math tells that you can afford the upkeep of 25k equipment.
The average multiplier is probably somewhere between 1,8 and 2,2 depending on your skills and luck, so id say 40-50k worth of equipment and you'll be fine

Long Hafted Blade, Glaive and Long Hafted Spiked Mace are probably the best melee weapons atm, but they will be nerfed and they have just no style. I dont play them..

i'd say the greatswords are better; they have slightly less speed, but more swing dmg, much more thrust dmg and their lolstabs have longer range than the weaps you just mentioned
