Warrior General Games

About to level up and boost and have 4 pieces of equipment to upgrade once each (1 piece of AE with Power Through & Strength).

My plan is to put all the skill points points into speed so I am close to 70. I am questioning what to do with the equipment, though. I was going to put 4 more points into strength to get me over 95, but would they be better spent on speed to get me over 70?

Bump?

Also, with this build beingore if a "run it over if it gets in front of you" kind of thing.. I've been ignoring vision for the most part, and agility is a low concern. In the next two seasons, looking to get speed ovrr 80 and strength up over 95.

All VAs will go in bruiser until 15.. But then what?

Anyone go with this kind of build?

Speed Agility and Carrying.

As for VA's. Short yard monster if you have the vision by then.

I hear you, especially on the Speed.. but do I use the equipment to get me over 70, or just spend the20 SPs on Speed and continue building the equipment up in Strength (will put me over 95).

i wouldnt say speed. i think you have enough speed for now, id say 3rd capping carrying is more important than speed

Really? That's surprising. Figured that speed under 70 would be unacceptable.

Anyone else have an opinion / advice? Appreciated

Maxed out Bruiser at +10 (level 37)... thinking about saving up VAs until I level to 40 so I can bump up to 15 as quickly as possible. Still haven't done the equipment upgrade yet have four pieces remaining (one is AE with Power Through). Team can't quite afford the equipment upgrades yet.

STR is now at 94+... with equipment will be 98 and by next season, over 100.

Speed is now up to 65+, and I think this is where I want to focus on my skill points to get over 70 by next season.

Anyone able to talk about the impact of carrying being increased from 56+ ?? (and how far is far enough?)

Oh, and FWIW, this build is currently averaging 18 ypc, but we've played some serious patsies so far the first three games of the season. Still, I like having 40 broken tackles on 50 carries, 300 yards a game and only 1 TFL. It's encouraging because that SHOULD be happening against crappy opponents.

But, I know reality is coming with the next game. I guess we'll see what's what in a few hours.

are strength and speed both over the 68 cap w/o eq? Pick one or the other and get it to 74 natural, although you could soft cap vision first.

Strength is 72 natural, Speed is 65 natural.

Any opinion on caryring? Seems like no one is 100% sure if it helps with breaking tackles or not.

Next decision for me is.. do I put the 4 pts from equipment into more strength to get up towards 100, or in speed to get closer to the 70+ goal?

20 equipment points into Strength will get you to 92, as you level up your Strength will auto increase a little each level getting you to 95+ by level 40-41. Put the rest of your equipment into Speed.

Get Speed and Agility to 68 natural then get carrying to 60+
Work on Stamina, Confidence and Vision through training.

My 0.02

Carrying absolutely helps with breaking tackles - I'd get it to at least 68.
