Lower the Shoulder
Power Through
5% Break Tackle

???? Does this look about right (of course with +3 strength added to them)?

That's about right.

Maybe Surge now that you can purchase it. I've seen it work very well on a few plays.

I go with Break Tackle / Power Thru as main two

Feel free to criticize me.. But isn't +% Not Fumble Chance good to have aswell? Since Powerbacks get hammered every other play, they are very fumble prone.

What's the rule about diminshing returns on the multiple %s?

Edit:

here we go:

2nd piece of AEQ - 50% value of the +%
3rd piece of AEQ - 25% value of the +%
4th piece of AEQ - 12.5% value of the +%

For example, if you had three pieces of +20% Force Fumble gear, this would be the total stack value:

+20%*100%=+20%
+20%*50%=+10%
+20%*25%=+5%


If you purchase 2x 5% break tackle, you're essentially buying 1x 7.5%, not 1x 10%. Is 2.5% break tackle at twice the cost worth a relevant SA at full value?

At level 72, fully upgraded, that's +34.5% break block chance instead of a +5 SA

I agree completely here, I would rather give my Power back 2 different SA's to use to break his tackle

Yeah, and since it's 37.5%, it's even more of a monster #

I've never been impressed with Lower the Shoulder so I wouldn't waste AEQ on it. I think Stiff Arm is better AEQ especially if your guy does any outside running. Overall though, I'd have to agree with 2 pieces of +Break Tackle% and Power Through.

You lost me?? I get 34.5% too??

1st AEQ = 5% (Base) + 9 upgrades (18%) = 23% at 100% = 23%
2nd AEQ = 5% (Base) + 9 upgrades (18%) = 23% at 50% = 11.5%

23% + 11.5% = 34.5%

Where did I mess up???

They're figuring Level 72 numbers, or 10 levels.
