Need help to make a choice for improve profiencies

Does the 10 extra wpf in archery really matter much? any screens maybe?

Yes it makes a huge difference, your crosshair does get smaller, you can hold your bow for a longer time without it moving wider also the damage is noticeable with every wm put into archery.  Try a 18/21 build and 18/24 and 18/27 you will see a huge difference from 18/21 to 18/24 in the size of your crosshair but it makes your arrows like a lot lot straighter. 9 wm, 18/27 is just insanely good.

Now , I will try a thing none here tried now ...

I will put points in 2h

LEVEL 33

18/24

6 PS
2 IF
4 ATHL
8 WL
6 PD

55 1h
54 2h
165 archery

I tested this , I'm accurate , even with a heavy armor (blue brigandine with mail), but the question isn't here, it's about after ...

Because I can make a choice , for more Atl and more IF

Level 35

6 PS
4 IF
8 ATHL
8 WL
6 PD

Or , a thing totally mad , exploit wpf in 1 handed (can reach maybe a shit like 75 wpf, a decent amount) , and put points in shield ( yeah, it's madness )


6 PS
2 IF
6 ATHL
8 WL
6 PD
4 SHIELD

So, what is the best for melee ?

I would go for the first option and have more IF and AGI.

Reason being the second build is going to require too many slots and very high upkeep. You can only have 4 items max no matter how many slots they take up.. Bow, 1 set of arrows, shield and a 1h weapon.. You will run out of arrows too quickly and your shield skill isn't quite high enough for melee (need 5, there's a big difference between 3/4 and 5/6 shield skill I find). Also with the additional IF and AGI I think you will do better in melee, the second option will just have you constantly back peddling (shield reduces effective WPF and will make your 1 hand very slow, you will be lucky to get a hit in)

yup , I know for everything, but not about the shield that reduce wpf o.o  Changes really everything about choices ... I will take the first one, finally ! I'm already slow, I shouldn't add weight with a shield  ;)

I can make the second thing only if devs buff WM (almost impossible  )
