[Templar] Knights Templar - The Original Crusader Clan (Recruiting: EU Only)

[Spawny]

Gawd.... Just 2 more weeks and I can retire for the first time after the patch! Huzzah!

Going to change build. Not exactly sure what, but probably going a bit agility heavy. The strengthbuild works fine, but not so good in duels.

I will probably create a 1h/polearms hybrid infantry (no horsie, they don't run up ladders in siege mode too well).

Any suggestions for a build?

[Bjarky]

u can use this calc to play around and find a build that suits u 
http://infinitum.dyndns.org/crpg/calc.htm

i came up with this one, based on your hybrid:
Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)
Strength: 18
Agility: 21
Hit points: 53
Converted: 8
Power Strike: 6
Shield: 5
Athletics: 5
Weapon Master: 7
One Handed: 148
Polearm: 98

but you'll probably find something better 

[Spawny]

Thanks for that. I know about the tool, but I was being lazy

Thanks for the effort you put into that build.

I would go for this:

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)
Strength: 15
Agility: 21
Hit points: 60
Converted: 2

Ironflesh: 5
Power Strike: 5
Shield: 5
Athletics: 7
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 0
Weapon Master: 7

One Handed: 140
Two Handed: 1
Polearm: 110
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 1
Throwing: 1

Gear:
Elite cav shield/Knightly heater shield/Huscarl shield (which ever suits my mood)
War spear or double sided lance (the latter for more thrusting power)
Masterworked sidesword
6k mail
2k boots/gloves
3-4k helm

Compared to my current build, I lose 2 PS, but I gain 2 athletics and a proficiency of 110 in polearms at the cost of 8 wpf points in 1h. Gives me more versatility and a tad more hp.
Currently I have riding at 5 too, but I love playing siege and horsies are quite useless there.

Hello Ionutzu, what was your ingame name? I do not recall that name... But in that time there ere about 80 names on roster. Anyway we are active nowaday, check the teamspeak.

Had 2 chars:
a 1 hand/shield + two hand with the same name (Templar_Ionuttzu)
and a archer named Templar_Broseph

Also I'll consider joining again after working on my chars some more

looks good too me, since you wont be using cav, the extra athletics really help

[Spawny]

Been using a double sided lance with 0 wpf an 7PS yesterday. Worked nicely.

Especially when I can put away the lance when my teammates get killed and start slicing people up with my sword.
I don't get a load of kills with the lance, but I do get a lot of people killed. Making them stumble so a teammate can kill them. You just have to make sure you don't get swarmed yourself

[Vexus]

That build will do fine since you got that side sword heirloomed it's quite devastating even without heirlooms

[Spawny]

I only worry about the upkeep. Sidesword+knightly heater shield+double sided lance= ~17k gold.
Total equipmentcost will be just over 30k I think, so I'm not sure if I can run it all the time.
Especially in siegemode, where you spend most of your time at a 1x modifier.

[Vexus]

Maybe use the italian sword as cheap alternative.

You've just received an important message from the Caravan Guild.

Sign up for this tournament http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,2440.0.html if u will be able to bring your best 3 horsemen with you.
Greetings, Toffi.

[Spawny]

We don't need 3. We'll just bring Tommy. We can bring 2 cheerleaders though.

[Toffi]

We don't need 3. We'll just bring Tommy. We can bring 2 cheerleaders though.

Yeah I've thought about the problem called "Tommy", my response is days of hard jousting training, my chest hurt from all the hard training already but I think I'll beat him

That was my last training session: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfcGJS_QL1s

That fence hurt my chest, I'm recovering well already, means I can breathe again.

[Spawny]

Not sure if he'll come though. I'll ask him tonight.

Btw, I've been doing some more fighting with 1 wpf in polearms and a double sided lance+shield and with it being a support class, I can safely say there's no reason to take wpf.

Therefore I have devised a new build: Heavy Infantry - AKA Siege monster.

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)

    * Strength: 24
    * Agility: 12
    * Hit points: 75

    * Unused skill points: 1

    * Converted: 2
    * Ironflesh: 8
    * Power Strike: 8
    * Shield: 4
    * Athletics: 4
    * Riding: 0
    * Horse Archery: 0
    * Power Draw: 0
    * Power Throw: 0
    * Weapon Master: 4

    * One Handed: 139
    * Two Handed: 1
    * Polearm: 1
    * Archery: 1
    * Crossbow: 1
    * Throwing: 1

Gear setup remains the same.

Thoughts?

[Vexus]

If you guys could help on finalizing my alt build would be great   

Atm it's:

Level 27 (2 359 534 xp)

Strength: 19
Agility: 18
Hit points: 54

Power Strike: 6
Athletics: 6
Weapon Master: 6

Two Handed: 146
Polearm: 50

(Polearm wpf is for bamboo spear it kinda makes it faster which is good)

Got 2 possible outcomes for my mauler alt which atm is lvl 27 either more focused on strength:

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)

Strength: 23
Agility: 18
Hit points: 58

Or balanced:

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)

Strength: 21
Agility: 20
Hit points: 56

I have a cheap set and expensive set of armor (Some could be changed in the future)

Cheap:

Haubergeon, Mail Gauntlets and Mail Chausses if there's a lot of archers which have good aim I equip Segmented Helmet.

Expensive:

Gothic Plate, Have no expensive ones atm but it's either Gauntlets or Plate Mittens and Mail Chausses (For now) and same as above if there's a lot of archers I got Barbutte or Bascinet.

Any suggestions?

[Casimir]

I'd say that the 21/ 20 build will be your best bet, u can use the additional agility to out maneuverer people meaning your lower hit points wont matter two much.
