Best possible build for a new player imo. You pack a punch, you can take a few hits and you're reasonably fast.
Don't convert skillpoint until you hit level 30 though, this prevents nasty and accidental mistakes that might screw over your build.
Aim for 15/15 at level 25, then 18/15 at level 28 and 21/15 at level 30.

I don't feel the need for athletics though... I don't need speed :d
And how come when I have 4 points left and I click on the + at one handed they all disapear?

As you get higher in proficiency for a weapon it requires more points per wpf.  Diminishing returns as you go upward, one of the reasons why the WM is one of the least effective things to invest in (except for ranged characters which need wpf for things like draw/reload speed & accuracy).

Athletics is important for almost every build - an exception may be a dedicated cav player that is planning on being mounted most of the time.  Having a healthy amount of athletics will help you keep decent footwork and not be overwhelmed as much in melee, and it will also help get away from enemy hordes instead of getting surrounded and destroyed.

That said the important part is having enough athletics to compete in general.. I'd say no less than 3 and no more than 7 should be your range, to taste based on your preferences.

Yes you'll need speed. Even the biggest rolling tank needs enough speed to - at the very least - keep the pressure on archers.

I just want to go 1 handed any ideas? :D

Yes, use grumbs link he gave you to the crpg character calculator:  http://infinitum.dyndns.org/crpg/calc.htm

It's so helpful it's ridiculous to try and plan a build without it.

Speed is the most important part of your character after the ability (not ammount) to do damage. Always max out athletics.

As for a 1h/arhcer hybrid, the one belove is probably the best. Seriously, some of the hybrid builds I saw here were some of the worst builds I've seen!

But if you don't want to respec and remove the shieldskill, then this might be the better archer/shielder build:

This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.
