Last gen i played 21/21 with 7 PS/WM and 3 Athl, was quite fine, even tho i lacked the speedrun and more maneuverable footwork.
Spec 18str 21agi plays out quite well, as with all the WM and PS you hit quite hard, but thanks to agi+athl you are a speedy bitch, my friend who got this spec now is hunting archers like nothing, as they usually have less athletics
And do not put a bad words on the swords, i like them. But i like them in every game i played, i was sword bearer, the fact people hate lolstabbing wont change my mind
