Help me out, taut.

Worth keeping? He just barely missed the cutoff for being able to avoid an archetype, although since that was never enforced I feel like an idiot for believing Bort and choosing one. That obviously crippled the build compared to those 1-2 seasons older.

Still working on agility for now, which I'll probably take to 83. After that, what should I consider most important among speed, vision, and confidence?

Almost identical.


LT: http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1803396

I'm wondering about scrapping this one too since I doubt the importance of Protector. Should I be aiming for more speed or confidence on my tackles than guards due to how they're forced to block in space?

Obviously working on agility.

I like taking agility to 85+ with tackles just to add some mobility.

I think you took blocking too high on the Gs and tackles.

The Gs should work on speed after agility.
The OTs definitely need more speed. The ROT is probably in trouble, because you still need more agility, and by the time you are done, probably can't get enough speed on him.

The C should probably be retired because he was just created at the wrong time.

I think you're probably right, which is distressing considering that blocking should be important for ... you know ... blocking. I disagree about the RT, though, as I don't think as highly of speed on offensive linemen as you do.

IMO - OL should shoot for the following

140 strength
100 agility
85 blocking
75 speed
60's for vision, confidence, stamina

with 2 pieces of HBC gear and at least 1 other piece of AEQ

then if you can squeeze anything out after getting those numbers and SAs you want, push for more strength

that's a lot of agility

My C were built the same day as yours and ... mine probably suck.

c's at that level are going to suck because of the change.
It's very normal to have a lower EL right now.

Just haven't seen any as good as jdb as of now

Yeah, we got screwed by being "forced" to pick an archetype while those 1 day older did not. Of course, I should have known better and just not picked one, since that threat wasn't ever enforced. *sigh* In any case, I'm more inclined to keep these guys than retire them simply because it's been so long since I had a high level player, and I really miss that, but for a couple I'm not sure it's actually worth it. I just have no idea what confidence / vision / speed should be for OL anymore, although as noted, I think Rage likes more speed on OL than just about anyone else.

jd - just because you aren't building a Rage dot - it doesn't mean they won't be any good. Don't quit building them because they won't be the best, you would only quit if they are going to suck...

Well I wasn't going to retire the guards or RT regardless, but I'm just wondering about the C due to how he suffers from archetypes, and the LT since I'm not sure you shouldn't just use RT builds at LT and forget about Protector. That and I was hoping to get various opinions on what targets to hit for confidence / vision / speed.

I'm planning on 61/61/70 for my dots of that age.

taking agility to 81 and loading up on first step across the board. I would like to go higher on vision but I'm not taut
