I just like to take the time to test things out myself too - even if it's just to confirm findings. Your test shows basically what I'm seeing, and mine is just acting to help confirm your experiment, not the other way around.

If either of you two manage to find a good kicker build I'll love you more than life itself

Its obvious you have the patience to test these things over myself, i just notice random things. And only reason i stumbled upon it is i had random players to fill my superstar bars and happen to notice a K i had with almost no power won the offensive MVP lol

So far it looks like there is something horrifically wrong and broken about kick power.

Its seeming like accuracy, consistency, and heart are really the only stats needed for good field goal %. Kickoff power im not sure on the exact number you need to get a TB almost every time, but not putting anything into FG power should open up enough SPs to level up KO power. But thats pretty much the jist of what weve found. The exact number of those are still under testing.

So are you guys saying that you don't need power to hit longer field goals? If I have a kicker with 10-30 fgp can he make 50+ yard field goals? or are they that much more accurate at lesser distances to make it not worth the power needed to hit anything 50 and over?

I’ll let you know when I get there, the build I’m working now is power over accuracy.

so far what ive noticed, the power needed to reach 50+ FG range would actually lower your overall FG%. ive scouted a couple veteran leagues teams and not a single one has won a game in any manner that was solely because their Kicker could make that next tier of FG range. yes getting to 30+ will give you the ability to hit the 50+ FG range, but raids working on exact number or atleast an estimate of whats needed for 50+ FGs and then once hes done that its up to the user to determine if being able to hit the big 50 FG is really worth missing so many 20/30/40 yarders.

Imo it's not worth going very much over 30 power. My two kickers are at like 33 and 36 power and can both make the distance on those kicks, but it's the accuracy where the misses come from. Definitely would rather put points into kickoff power over field goal power once the 30 plateau hits.

Hmm... gimme a bit longer on this.

Ya that's def a wide right kick. I've seen a couple come short but they were like 50 yarders into the wind

So, since I respecc'd my kicker pickup he's been 15/18 and the 3 misses were a 27 yarder, a 42 yarder, and a 45 yarder. 7 of the ones he made were 40+


So, not to shabby so far. All I did was lower his power to 10 under accuracy. Let's see if he keeps this up and then I'll post the rest of his build.

Final build: Heart - 75
Kick consistency - 70
Kick Accuracy - 65
Kick Power - 55
Kickoff - 44
Conditioning - 25
Balance - 75
Footwork/Sprint/Quickness/Toughness - 20

26/36

I think Power was a bit too high in comparison to accuracy

His misses:

57 yarder ( https://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/replay/734569/1476250 - if you notice, he had plenty of leg but not the accuracy - so probably ~45 kick power is enough to get you a good range.)
31 yarder
36 yarder
39 yarder
32 yarder
37 yarder
28 yarder
27 yarder
42 yarder
49 yarder

So he was 0 of 1 on 50+
9 of 11 from 40-49
9 of 14 from 30-39
8 of 10 from 20-29
0 of 0 from 0-19


30s were his kryptonite.

65 accuracy
70 consistency

these seem really low

unless the truth is no kicking stats matter and it is all RNG
