I just created 2 players and I was wondering what should I point my skill points into. I'm planning to buy Custom Equipment and I was wondering where should i put my points into and what SA branch should I use. As well what AEQ should I buy and where should I put the points into. I know it's alot to ask, is there a guide that you guys recommend. I'm planning to boost the players every season.

I haven't put any points on my players yet.

Honestly, unless you're going to make an entire 3-4 defense that works together... I wouldn't bother.

Since, that's not going to work. What would you suggest me to do?

Build a ridiculously strong nose tackle and a run stopping strength based LDE. You won't get pretty stats though. Keep that in mind.

thanks
as long as we win games. Are there any guides out there? Like where I should put my skill points into? I decided that i'm going to make both of them run stoppers.

Im tempted on creating a DT and a RDE and make them all run stoppers.

well if you were going for a 3-4 then you only have 3 lineman. So one NT and 2 DE's. Build your run stoppers with strength first. I'd start off by getting good str rolls on the positions and train str/tkl first until you can cap str. Then move onto agi/tkl. Get str up until at least your 4th cap on both players. Depending on what you want for you agility do it before or after you finish off strength. Leave the SA's for later.

Thanks. I decided to do the 4-3 defense and make them all run stoppers. I'm going create another DE and DT

In the 4-3 that kind of build don't work as well, because they have to attack the gaps, not just hold up their ground. Stick with 3-4, IMO.

please don't assign skill points yet. i didn't assign anything to my NT until level 12. he'll have 130 strength by level 56 i think. for both:

i would train up strength and tackling until you have enough to push him to the 4:1 cap. train until you have strength at 90-99% (so later on, you can train it 1-2 times and get the next point, saving you about 5-6 skill points) and jam it all the way to 68-69.

then save them up some more until you can hit the next cap and hold off. now it's time for agility. repeat this process, only training quick tackling drills (agility and tackling). get agility up to 4:1.

after that, cap tackling to at least 48, then work speed up, etc.

eventually, they'll be immoveable beasts who won't move off the line and will allow your linebackers to run to the ball. i'm unsure about special abilities. perhaps shed block and break thru both to 10?

i'm not sure math agrees with this approach.

L2SLOWBUILD. That is a failure right there. You're completely making auto level gains irrelevant.
