Hello! Making my final alt for a long time here, and I would really like to make a hoplite! I haven't done one yet, and I'm going to test builds on my stf, but seing as that I know nothing about it, I could use some help.
I like playing as support. I like high athletics to take out cav, chase archers/throwers, and to keep my enemies at a distance. I usually like to carry a long range primary weapon, and a utility short range secondary (like something to break shields, knockdown, etc)
So I see some recommended hoplite builds like 15/21 but I'd really like to have even more athletics if possible.
So maybe something like this:
Strength: 15
Agility: 24
Hit points: 54
Skills to attributes: 8
Ironflesh: 2
Power Strike: 5
Shield: 8
Athletics: 8
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 0
Weapon Master: 0
One Handed: 1
Two Handed: 1
Polearm: 114
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 1
Throwing: 1
---Or even this:
Strength: 12
Agility: 27
Hit points: 49
Skills to attributes: 8
Ironflesh: 1
Power Strike: 4
Shield: 9
Athletics: 9
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 0
Weapon Master: 0
One Handed: 1
Two Handed: 1
Polearm: 114
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 1
Throwing: 1
And I could drop the IF and switch it to WM, or take a few points of shield out, but I want high shield skill as well, so that I get that nice shield bubble and good durable shields.
Some hoplite weapons I know about are red tassel, war spear, bamboo spear, ashwood pike.
Some secondaries I thought might be fun to carry are voulge, and quarter staff
EDIT: Oops thought voulge was 1 slot, guess just quarter staff then!
What do you guys think?
