It is also the equivalent of having slightly higher ping as you attack a wee bit faster. Also it slightly lowers repair chance by a bit.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

I run with 111 WPF in poles, medium armour (About 17kgs I reckon).  It works fine, but my pole breaks often (every few rounds).

In my opinion, for one-weapon melee builds, Iron Flesh > Weapon Master.  That's only with two generations I've tried (compared to 3 gens as a WM-taking melee), but hey.

I'm going to retire one more time to get my lordly palace guard after that im griding to lvl 34

so I'm trying out builds

this is what I'v got at level 30 :

Strength    21    
Agility    18    
Weapon proficiency
Available points: 0
One Handed    1    1 point per wpf
Two Handed    1    1 point per wpf
Polearm    117    6 points per wpf
Archery    1    1 point per wpf
Crossbow    1    1 point per wpf
Throwing    120    6 points per wpf
Skills
Available points: 0
Iron Flesh    0    3 strength per level
Power Strike    4    3 strength per level
Shield    0    3 agility per level
Athletics    6    3 agility per level
Riding    0    3 agility per level
Horse Archery    0    6 agility per level
Power Draw    0    3 strength per level
Power Throw    7    3 strength per level
Weapon Master    6    3 agility per level

120 wpf allows me to use good equipment (lordly mail gauntlets, reinforced palace guard, roman helmet with veil and rus choes) and throw lances without any penality

but i only have 4 power strike (that i'd max out reaching the later levels while aiming for 21 agility for level 33 or 34 to get myself 7 wm for more wpf in polearms and 7 aths)

i use my mighty elegant poleaxe, my fav weapon it catches up the lacks of wpf but i'm feeling i cant spam it like i did with 140 wpf (or maybe it's just me)


this build allows me to troll people when they think they can maul me, cav charge me, or duel me and then i take out a throwing lance  :twisted:

what do you guys think?

looks good to me. i use the same build for my thrower at 30 while just using throwing lances.
i imagine it would be super fun/effective at 34.
