weight = speed penalty reduced by strengh skill


is it stupid proposal ? 

[pepejul]

I try to explain in frenglish :

I m stronk, I can wear heavy armour and heavy weapon and I m still fast (if I have athle)

I m weak, I can wear heavy stuff but it decrease (a lot) my speed (run speed)

It seems to be realistic no ?

Is it possible to have 42 str and 14 PS/IF or 39 STR is a limit?

So the idea is that if you have great attack (str) you can still have great defense with good mobility and if you choose to go agi you have to sacrifice both attack and defense for some extra mobility?
How about fuck you

[pepejul]

Understand me... the weight penalty should be STRONGER than the strengh reduction of it...  I think weight should be BIG handicap for player (even with strengh but less)... a big slow tank cannot hit a fullspeed agi rabbit whi hit hit hit hit him very fast and flee...

It is so stupid ?

I don't think it's a good idea, and I mostly play str builds. The problem was already mentioned, str is already too good, no need to buff more.

That said, the suggestion is pretty useless anyway, because plate is so shit at the moment that barely noone uses it anymore.

Pepejul: I want to know why you think that buffing strength is a good idea from the standpoint of game balance.

Strength is already much better than agility in cRPG because every game mode that isn't rageball is focused on killing the enemy team. Considering that the average level of skill these days is pretty high, you stand a much better chance of wracking up a high k:d as melee if you only require 2-3 hits to kill a decent opponent from full health, as opposed to the 5-8 hits you might require if you use a true agility build. That's not to say that there aren't some extremely skilled players who function better with an agility build than a strength build, but they're a minority.

mmmmh... you are all right

Yes.
Attribute limit is 45 and the skill limit is 15.
