Yea, I would boost at the end of the season, but should I boost, I'm thinking that I will.

Remember: Power back DOES NOT mean Slow back.

Revised Plan:

Save up enough SP to softcap SPEED
Save up enough SP to softcap Strength.
Begin Training Carrying
Bring Agility up to softcap
Bring Speed up to 3-1
Bring Strength up to 3-1
Begin Trainng Carrying/Strength

3rd cap Str, Cap Spd, Cap AGIL, 2nd cap Speed...thats what I'm doing and should have speed 2nd capped at level 23.

Curious about this, as well.

I would put all the EQ on strength and put SP in speed until it's up to the second cap. Strength has more things important to RBs that you can train it with, so you can train the lower strength to match the speed.

Actually, I'm thinking more long term...if you've got both speed and strength up to 68 natural (and respectable agility), at this point where should EQ go?

For a powerback I'd put all EQ on strength.

That is what I would have thought too, but I've heard a number of people preaching speed over strength even for a powerback...so I was wondering if there was a consensus on this forum.

This is my slowbuild power HB, I think his build and stats are pretty good so far:

Speed is important, but EQ needs to go on strength at least until you get to higher levels. I think 3rd capping strength is a bit much in the beginning. Maybe down the road. Speed, agility and carrying are important too.
