is it a good idea to raise speed to 77 or should i rather invest points into agility (~30 saved)?

Depends on what you're trying to do.

You look to me like a hybrid. Can block and catch, but not a specialist in either.

But yes you do need more agility either way. Agility is very important for holding blocks. And agility is what gets you moving and making fast cuts.

50 agi min at your level I'd say.

For that build, I would stop with speed and work on agility.

77 speed would be the max the base should be at. I think it could definately benefit your player. But as LostPeon and Dolphin said, your player needs more agility, and I would try to softcap it within 1-2 levels, or immediately.

i have enough skill points left to raise agility to the 2nd cap, so this shouldn't be an issue (plan to train it to 34, 95% before spending points into it though).

[update: 02 01 10]

speed is now at 77,87 (93%), 20 unused skill points and 3 boosts left: question is, what option would be the best for my TE?

1) raise speed to the 6-cap (18sp), put the rest into agility (17sp)
2) put everything into agility (35sp)
3) put one point into speed (training + gains will elevate speed to the 6-cap) (6 sp), put the rest into agility (29sp)

You have more than enough speed. Time for agility.

just hit up agility now. there's -zero- urgency to add more speed since the autogains are so shitty.
but hold onto that training because you'll probably want more than that much speed later on. 2-3 caps beyond the 5th cap.
