My DE's lack of missed tackles is a good argument against it.

They both have 0 this season.

I think once you get tackling to first cap on a DE, confidence is going to be every bit as important. Besides, once you get to that point your major attribute gains are over with. I would rather get gains on physical attributes any day of the week, especially with how often this game changes. I can go from STR DE to SPD DE to AGI DE with a simple swap of equipment.

I'm not disagreeing with that. I'm just saying that tackling gets the same level gains, so mathematically, going tackling first is just as worth it as speed first. Speed first will be the better build by far, but mathematically...same thing.

Not really. I'm pretty sure DEs utilize STR/SPD/AGI on more rolls than tackling. But yeah, you get the same gains. It doesn't make sense from a practical standpoint so I'm not sure what the debate is.

My 48 DE's destroy his HANDS DOWN. I don't think anyone would debate that.

And since then we both have made another DE oddly enough about the same level, mine is open share yours and compare, let the community see who builds better DE's.

You fail.

Once more for good measure.

Oh snap here's another one.

Which DE is "best"?

Oh snap, he closed his build. That 66 natural speed or whatever was pretty laughable.

Damn, I was hoping when I saw the thread title that there might be some useful info.

There isn't because not many people have found this season's "magic DE formula", and those that have aren't giving it out.

It changes from season to season, honestly.

Pretty solid attributes, but SAs are a bit off for that build. Vision is also way too low.

Well I just added the Strength gear last season or something.....he used to be what, over 110 speed or something....oh and wtf does Vision do for a DE?

13 First Step when he only has 81 speed? Why? Overkill on the first step and under-kill on the Shed Block.

Shed Block blows....it does nothing imo (seen way too many DT's with it well over 10 and do nothing). The First Step is obv an AE piece, but it also has +3 Agility that it came with. I just rolled a +1 Trash Talk, +5% Break Block piece a few days ago, so I may switch over to that......and read above for the low speed. Regardless, she's still having an ok season except for the dumb ass missed tackles that make 0 sense to me....someone must have had SYM on their powerback.

Really? Why are they so terrible in 34 caps then?

I hate getting things past the 73 cap, or the 68 cap depending on position. 3 extra SPD/STR/AGI just doesn't seem worth the tradeoff of 10 in another attribute. I'd rather have an extra 10 confidence or jumping than an extra 3STR.

Especially the first attribute, which will hit 80 natural even if you only get it to the 68 cap.

77 is your friend for a lot of positions

What has taurran done?

More than anyone in this thread, ldo.

Because they don't have enough agility, speed, vision, or SAs yet. They are still effective once they get rounded out, they just don't do well early because OTs are working on the same attribute they are.

Getting of the line quickly, but with 13 FS i guess you're covered

Also have 15 JTS, hence my questioning.

Yeah i just checked a couple replays of your DE... you don't get off the line at the very first tick, but that HUGE speed boost at the second tick is good enough
