My kicker is @ level 15 and while he is doing well for himself, I am not sure which way to start going with the 5SP he just gained, or any in the future for that matter.

Here is his build @ level 15

Player Attributes
Physical Attributes Football Skills
Strength: 49.19 Blocking: 8
Speed: 12.19 Tackling: 10
Agility: 12.19 Throwing: 12.19
Jumping: 12.19 Catching: 8
Stamina: 8 Carrying: 8
Vision: 23.19 Kicking: 82
Confidence: 35 Punting: 9

SA - 1-1-1


Is 82 kicking sufficient for now or should I still keep at that skill? He has hit his last 3 40-45 yarders. Regular season he is 6/9 FGA/FGM & 14/14 on XPA/XPM. I am think accuracy is the way to go from here on in, however which skills attribute to this? Confidence? Vision? Both?

Any insight would be appreciated.

If kicking is to the third softcap then do confidence. If not do kicking to third then confidence to at least the second then do vision.

Confidence and Vision need to be increased. I would start by putting 5 of your SP into Confidence and 10 into Vision.......

I would put the next 14 into confidence, so you never need to touch it again. (49 at level 17 = 54 at level 22 = 60 at level 30 = 70 at level 52.. all seem reasonable numbers as you progress.. anything less you're cheating yourself) The sooner you get to 48, the better. Down the road, you'll regret not taking the opportunity to spend 1:1 in confidence, so do it now.

As soon as you reach higer levels you will want to build in the Automatic SA's

Sorry to jump in this thread but I figured I'd save the space.

So, basically, after soft capping kicking I should secondly softcap confidence then after thats soft capped do agility then vision or?

What order should I go in?

I'm level 8 and I have 69 kicking (after custom eq and eq) and haven't spend the 20 saved SPs yet until I know which should be my second softcap and so fourth....

Once you've done Kicking & Confidence - then do Vision & Strength

Get kicking to the 3rd cap then STRENGTH/VISION/CONFIDENCE all need to be at least softcapped BEFORE taking any to the 2nd cap. My preferred order is Confidence, Strength, Vision. Speed and Agility are nice but they are not major players to a Kicker

That is incorrect about taking all to 48 before any to 60. Vision and strength only get 0.17 / level. Waiting an extra level or two to cap them isn't going to cost you much. However, confidence gets 1/level. You'd benefit greatly from taking that to 60 ASAP. Every level you wait costs you 1 SP in the long run.
