How about agility lancer? With a 15/24 build, using a lance and an arabian warhorse (or a very heavily armored horse). With arab horse you'll be fast, manueverable yet deadly enough. With an armored horse, you'll be tanky, doing very good bump damage, yet reasonably fast and manueverable. Never tried this myself, but GK_Lars uses high riding and is actually doing very very good. Agility lancer is very good for 1v1 figthts, but require you to be aware of archers in a crowded battle (something you always should). I believe agility is the way to go for a lancer, as they benefit more from the speed bonus for better damage and benefit more from the manueverability as they have a limited attacking area.

Edit: 12/27 works too. Even for a Heavy lance user. It's difficulty is 11. Also good for Great lance too, it's difficulty is 11 as well.

Isn't lancer very expensive? Especially with an Arabian Warhorse and hmm medium armor. I don't want to have higher upkeep than 3k so less than 3k. Would you be able to teach me something like this in an "footclass guide";-) and sorry if I am asking to much different things. So any good hybrod combination or some special fun amd effective class?

Oh, cavalry is an expensive class indeed. Forgot about you were asking an economical build.

I'd say hybrids would be a bit more expensive than specialists, as they tend to use more than 1 weapon type (more chance to break, and with less wpf even more chance to break). Ranged also has some extra repair costs, just because developers hate those classes. I'd say, go for a simplistic build. Something that will make you useful with economical equipment. Hmm Spearman (or pikeman) or offensive shielder are what coming to my mind.
As a spearman, wear medium armor and use a cost efficient spear to stop horses, stab people from behind etc. Bamboo spear, Long spear, war spear maybe.
As a shielder, wear light armor (maybe medium armor) and protect yourself with your shield. Get 5 shield skill minimum (and maybe optimum), grab a good 2 slot shield and... fight :D Use your high movement as an advantage.

Edit: You can try agiwhore-katana bitch build too. 15-24 is a viable build for a katana. You won't be vulnerable to arrows at all. It is easy to dodge arrows, or find a cover quickly; as you will be reasonably fast. Wear ninja armor for style. Ninja armors are not very heavy, so not very expensive. You'll be making loads of money with this build.

Most cost efficient horse is said to be the rouncey. But steppe horse or desert horse might be good alternatives for being cost efficient too. If you're talking about max20 lvl server, your best option in rouncey or steppe horse probably. And the cheapest weapon you can use for that server. Cav is generally expensive, but this might be different with a rouncey. I remember I was making lots of money with champion destrier and other top tier equipment, it was x5 for half an hour though.

 :D well I have ~450k now and I would play with stick (polearm) until I can use the Lance (normally1) and at lvl 15 I will go 3:18 build xD I will run around in peasents gear and this until lvl
20 or so then I can use a Lance but I dunno atm how much strenght is needed for the normally lance. My question now is, what armor should I use? I guess if I don't get something from Clan Armoury I will have around 420k after buying all the stuff... I guess too that I will make money with less than 3k upkeep. I would use a courser, Normally Lance, Maybe later Hafted Blade, Mail Guantles .. but what armour??

That depends on how often you'll get hit, compared to your horse. Most of the time when you are dehorsed near enemy infantry group, you're already dead. Extra protection doesn't offer much. I'd say, something to keep you alive as long as your horse is alive would be sufficient. I'd suggest buying an armor that protects your leg more than the others. Also wearing a good couple of boots might be good. I wear plate boots. Their cost is very low, but they protect me even better than my body armor.

By the way: loom horse before the weapon. Champion horses are the best looms.

Hmm okey:) I will try and I will search for a low cost good foot armor, but I will search for good armor too, do you know one? Well I think I will be able to find something which keeps my upkeep less than 3k (if i use my highest and best armor);-)

Sarranid armors are not bad for this. Skirmisher armor, sarranid padded vest, sarranid leather armor, Sarranid mail shirt, mamluke mail. They are fitting the kapıkulu theme too :P

As a dedicated lance cavalry build for 13 gens (retired once at 33 and back at level 32), when leveling I have gone for agility first (to about 15) before going strength and vice versa and I can say that you are way better off going for 12 strength (and then going for your full agility to ride your horse).  You can actually hurt people when you hit them, otherwise if you're riding your horse with 1 power strike you're not going to do much damage, and obviously you won't be doing damage to people while you're on foot.

You can't use many weapons with 1 ps too of course. Seriously with speed bonus, the lance hits do very very high damage. I mean, they do so much damage that they gain the damage loss completely.

Now, I think I got a direction. I think I like Mounted Classes most. I have a Great Mauler Alternate Charakter for melee now. Funny one ;). But I realized that HX and HA are great classes. But I don't have got some loomed items at the moment so I am asking myself which class  is good and effective (also for the team) without loomed items. And what's more fun? :)) Any Builds maybe and some things, why  HA or HX in Your opinion is.
