Yeah..unless you're cutting corners somewhere non-traditional....but I really don't know where you'd do that.

Agility. Most powerbacks go way too high on agility.


how much is enough?


Taking it to 68 and ending with 75 or a few less is fine tbh.

both really. i mean...not that he will be too agile. But apparently could have gone higher in carry/strength/speed/stamina. Maybe the spin bonus (if you have spin) from agility is helpful. Tho dprides back really seems to rip through defenders pretty well. Will be interesting to see him run around in WL. Will be more interesting to see the guy who finishes with 60 agility or less to promote higher break tackle abilities and how he does as well.

plan to have (with eq):
135 speed
95 strength
85 agility (+3 agility, +5% BT was too good to pass up)
81 carrying
6-1-1-2-10 in top SA tree
7-7-7-10-1 in the bottom
4 in Surge
+37.5% BT
when done

Citations? and/or some clarity on that por favor? I know you know wtf you're talking about, specifically with this perhaps, but I'm curious

Back in the day I did build tests which showed not too much difference in acceleration between dots with 1 : 0.75 speed : agility and those with 1 : 0.5 or even 1 : 0.33. Speed & agility have probably an equal part in acceleration, but both are so powerful individually that you can reach top speed in only a few more yards without a high investment in agility. Where low agility kills you is if you're making significant changes in direction, but anyone on a power running style will make very few changes in direction, so they can get by with a lot less agility (and even compensate if they choose by putting a few points in Quick Cut, since that's at the front of the HB tree).

I'm hoping Pariah will let me experiment with his and stop at 60, but 68 would certainly be enough.

Season 24 is not far away. So you're doing some new math.

I'm new to the game, and am still experimenting. But am trying to see what a PHB will do with nothing put into agility. Seems pretty worthless to me.
