I just rolled up a piece of gear with a +1 Dive 4 Yds SA. I haven't been able to find any information on the usefulness of this piece of equipment! Is it worth getting that cranked up for a powerback, or should I really just focus on breaking tackles?

Secondly, what do you think of SAs like Spin or Head Fake on an FB, compared to something like a +break tackle% piece? I can say that, in my experience, Spin does not help a powerback get far, although for a speedster it might be more useful.

D4Y is not worth it unless you get like 20 carries a game.

+% break tackle chance AEQ is Godly on the right build... especially if you have two pieces.

How does D4Y compare to power thru? My FB is basically the pr/kr and gets a few carries when we need less than 2 yards. I'm wondering if D4Y will almost assure that we get the 1st down in that situation.

If you get say 200 carries a season, a high level of D4Y might be worth an extra 50-100 yards to you. Power thru is also an SA, that has a random chance of working, but I would say that the broken tackle can be worth more yardage than a D4Y proc... if you have a good enough build.
