I wanna play 1h and shield mainly, a spear for cav/in groupfights. Suggestions?

[Cyclopsided]

that is good, nothing wrong with it . 21/18 gets much better with higher levels imo. Like, 33 21/18 fills out nicely.

Good? Earlier you said perhaps going 7 powerdraw was unnecessary? I want a build that can shoot my masterwork longbow well, and also do good 1h fighting.

I guess the alternative is to go 18-21, with 6 powerdraw?

You could go 18/21, 6 PD, 7 WM (for better hybridizing), 6 Ath, 4 PS for a level 30 build. Though really, 18/18 is a pretty awesome build for a hybrid archer at level 30, more fleshed out than 18/21. Same profs (150/50), 6 WM, 6 PS, 6 Ath, 6 PD, 5 Ironflesh for a bit more durability. If you're planning on retiring at 31, go 18/18; if you're planning leveling to 32 or higher, go 18/21.

in my opinion, 18/21
though 18/18 is good

Honestly I would say instead of 6 ath and 4 ps, get 6 ps and 4 ath. The 2 athletics isn't going to make a difference with heavy quivers.

[Zak4o]

actually it will make you faster .

No point in me making a new thread so I'll post here.

I want to use light armour, so what 1h/cav shielder build would you recommend?
I was thinking 21/15 due to the strength and the 2 ironflesh. Also with light gear I won't need higher than 5 agility. What would you guys recommend.

note: I don't have any looms, apart from my bow and arrows.

Why do you need pole arms to get good 1h swords?
why not just boost 1h swords up all the way instead of splitting it up with polearms?

Is it because eventually I'll want to use a pole with swords?
Right now my guy is set up with like 95 1h swords and 60 throw and 20 2h.

Did I mess up? Should I rebuild?
I think I want to focus on Throw and 1h sword. Good idea? or is this what every noob goes for?

You don't need pole arms to get good 1h swords. Just many times being a hybrid (pole and 1h, split proficiency) is a good idea.

You want to be a 1h + thrower right? Why do you have 2h proficiency?
You may want to rebuild.

You should go:

Code: [Select]

Powerstrike: 7
Powerthrow: 7
Athletics: 5
Weapon Master: 5
Shield: 5

100 1H
rest throwing

Hey, I would like to know what you guys think of the following build:

18/18

IF:6
PS:6
WM:6
ATH:6
PT:5

130wpf in Pole
104wpf in Throwing

MW Bec, MW Stones

Will I have enough points in throwing? I thought I'll carry the stones vs archers that might run away

[njames89]

Very nice post. TY OP

i'd go with 6 Pt, 5 IF because i fuckin' love stones, and i'd go with like 120/120 for prof.
but yeah no that works great
