Anyone have any examples or information on a successful power rushing/passing type QB... Not just a full on power rusher, but a dual threat type....or has anyone really attempted such a build?

Hmmm... probably. I know PRQB's have been built because there's a lot of lamenting about the serious lack of appropriate AEQ in the shop for them. In fact, general consensus is you gotta build every piece if you want correct and quality PRQB gear. As for dual-threat... I'm not sure it's been tried (probably... but consider that you've never heard of one working wonders and I'd bet whatever was tried, sucked.) IF you were going to try it, I don't think I'd use the RQB archetype... probably go with the Deep Passer QB instead and just build a PQRB that way. Why? Since you still want to pass with this QB, then having strength as a primary instead of a secondary... and having speed as a secondary... lines up more with what you're wanting to build. Attack Strength first... then speed... then carrying... then enough passing and agility to work as a thrower (when needed). IMO. Maybe someone has a better angle but that'd be my first thoughts.

deep passer doesn't have speed as a minor

EQ will be your bottle neck. it could work, if you had multiple sets of gear.

the PrQB needs to get Speed gear with BT% -- but to throw, you'll need Throwing gear with PQ%

So in theory, you could do 4 AEQ.-- 2 of each type. Then use REQ of the opposite types to make a "set".

Reg Feet, Reg Head, w/ Adv Hands and Adv Body could be a run set -- for example +46 Speed w/ 21%+ BT

Adv Feet, Adv Head, w/ Reg Hands and Reg Body could be the passing set

swap out for different games, as needed. pick your poison for CEQ, probably +6 Speed w/ %PQ



you'd still need to negotiate the Carry vs. Vision hurdle, but if you wanted it bad enough it could be done. VPB it 1 million times.

the Deep archy would be the only way to go, the scrambler isn't good enough at running to add throwing to.

Probably meant Pocket Passer. It's been a little while since my last QB build. Does it show?

No. Pocket passer doesn't either.

Probably best not to give advice if you don't know what you are talking about

Quarterback

Pocket Passer
A pocket passing QB must rely on his offensive line blocking to keep him safe, but he remains cool under pressure and knows how to hit his receivers in stride. His game is focused on accurate, high quality passing.
6'0" - 6'6", 200-260 Lbs
Major Attributes: Confidence, Throwing, Vision (+.67)
Minor Attributes: Agility, Stamina, Strength, Carrying (+.25)
Favored Special Abilities: Pump Fake, Tight Spiral
Penalized Special Abilities: On the Run, Dump Pass

Back to topic, well, you just don't have enough sp to do both well.

I said it'd been quite a while since I'd last built a QB.

Yes. This. 100% this. Even in trying to make RQB's that can pass the end result is a QB that can't do either nearly as good as one built to do one thing and do it extremely well. That said, if you just wanna try for the sake of doing something different... go for it.

Frog will tell you it is not only doable but always a butt with a frog-exciting! see a frog about a dot and a build may be shared

It doesn't even take me 30 seconds to find out major/ minor information for PPQB.
If you are not sure about it, why not find out correct information then answer it?

That's your computer, aaasahi. Mine is old, plus I am stuck with dialup, so it takes a lot longer to load stuff. I tried to remember instead... was wrong... corrected it. I'd still bet that Skibo has his own idea as well that doesn't jibe with most builders here. Some of us simply build a bit different... with success, I might add.
