The problem I seemed to encounter more and more in the past few months is the low range + 5 athletics. I can't count the number of times I got killed because I attacked and my enemy (with a great sword) quickly stepped back and outranged me with his longer weapon.
You really have to be in someone's face with short weapons and you're going to lose the range game vs anyone with a longer weapon and 6 or higher athletics.
It made me switch from 21/15 to 18/18 and I do a lot better now (using the also short broad one handed battle axe).

[Mlekce]

i made 18/18 stf build and i cant see any difference between having 15/15 and 18/18 build. Nothing changed actualy.
I will go for 21/15 i need more power for my mw scimitar. Everyone is using heavy armors,and i need more ps.

[Bobthehero]

Scimitar is quite shitty agaisnt armor tbh, even mw'd, the lack of a stab is crippling imo.

[Mlekce]

well stab for all 1h exept espada is total crap. Don't realy need it. I like it because repairs are only 300 gold.

[Bobthehero]

long espada, italian sword, side sword are great, 24 pierce and up stabs are good, seems the stab benefits much more from speed bonus or something, but I always end up doing good damage with it (or rather, not bouncingon plate with my archer and 24 stab using a long arming sword)

[Spawny]

Even the stab on a mw nordic champ sword can hurt people in plate.

The other alternative is to have such high cut damage that you won't glance, from a mighty broad one handed batte axe or mw military cleaver for instance.

But those are a bit more expensive ofcourse.

The iron war axe is an alternative, with 40 cut damage at +3. It's just a bit too slow for my taste.

Even the stab on a mw nordic champ sword can hurt people in plate.

Yep, yesterday I used the "arabian homo sword" (26cut, 19pierce, worst stats ever ftw ) and pwned some heavy armor 2 handers with it. If you hit them right, the stab always hurts, even with only 19 pierce.   

[Corwin]

I want to make stf  throwing /one handed or twohanded hybrid (maybe use longsword?), agi based with at least 5 PT. Any advice?

I'm more focused on 1h melee and just want throwing axes for the occasional throw at fleeing enemys and as shieldbraker. Is 115  wfp still enough to be somewhat accurate with them? I want the 6 PS and don't want to go under 120 wfp with 1h.

[Cyclopsided]

It can work just fine. You'll have enough throwing wpf.

[MangyHobo]

You guys are missing the point... 3/35 with 13 shield skill is the only way to go... ever see the practice shield take 30 hits from the great maul? Diddnt think so..
