Bort has already said that some SA's are completely independent of any individual stat, and act on their own. I would imagine at least Aura would be completely independent, and probably D-Gen, too. Snarl and a few of the others would make sense to be linked with confidence, though, but it's impossible to say, since Bort hasn't really said anything about confidence other than it's the most underrated attribute in the game.

I think most stats are more about the opponents confidence though. Like how well they deal under the pressure and with them talking smack. Know what I mean?

That's not even implied. It seems pretty clear in the SAs that you need more points in them to be effective against higher level QBs.


I am finally starting to come around and wonder if confidence is something I should spend more time working on, though. I'm finally adding some to my Center and RB, and I'm looking to start training it more often on my LB once I get my tackling where I want it to be.

It was only a guess. But I'm doing the same thing as well. The more I see people get their confidence up, the better they are doing.

anyone really sold on this confidence for Linebackers thing...

i've got a lv4 LB looking for a human team to develop on

I'd think confident mouth with trash talk or confidence to make a tackle and not lose morale if you miss tackles

Alright, well since the game I played tonight I increased CONF by a full level. And it turns out I got 15 TCKLs in todays game. So.. I'll keep you guys updated on that. I'm just going to continue to train/increase it and see what kind of stats I get.

What do you mean by a full level?

5 points maybe??? Not sure what he meant by a full level.

I meant a full 5 points yes. I just had 7 TCKLs my last game as well so I really think CONF is pretty helpful in LBs. Sorry I didn't clarify that guys.

Not sure what exactly confidence affects in the SA's, but I do recall Bort mentioning Vision and Confidence as a deterrent against those shifty elusive backs that try to shake their way around defenders. I've built all of my LB's in a fairly balanced pattern, but one of them has dumped a few more points into confidence. It may be my eyes deceiving me, but he appears to be more 'sure' about his reactions ... fewer stalls in reacting if that make sense to you guys.

I totally get what you mean. It's like they see the play developing with their vision, then they have the confidence in themselves to make the tackle. They know they can do it, and they pull it off without hesitation. That's what I think confidence is doing at least since I've started training it.

Yea, I couldn't have said that any better myself guys. Ever since I've pumped points into CONF I've seen some absolutely AWESOME results like 15 and 7 TCKLs my last two games. So I'll keep you guys updated with this. I'm going to continue training this and see how it goes for me.

Hey, Z whats your confidence at now so we can compare results with my LB which has close to Conf 29.
