Not really. 20-25.

Depends on how many punts you are getting. For 1-3 punts, almost irrelevant. If you are getting 7-10 punts/game, it can mean more. Firenze has the right range, IMHO.

well 20-25 is some tbh that was my expectation though.

Holy sheet, 18 high level punters!

what is a good # to have on Special abilities fpr lvel 40 punters

Level 40? You could have 110 punting, 80 confidence, 60 vis/str, 30 spd/jump/agi, 15 sta, 9-9-9 SAs.

How good you think that build is, is up to you.

Depends on how much you kick/punt. Around 25 should be solid for normal games, though.

This depends on whether you want your player to peak sooner or later. I believe that SAs have a huge impact on punting. However, every point you put into them is a point taken away from taking a skill up to the next cap and getting the auto boost benefits.

I have a punter who is over level 40 without a single point in SA yet. He won't peak until season 8 at the soonest. I have other punters who are close to 10 on all SAs who have great averages now, but will never be able to achieve the same level of skills.

FWIW

The advantages to pushing caps for a punter is pretty limited. At level 30, you're looking at 56% of original gains, which were only 0.17 to begin with. Thats 0.10 per level, or 10 levels just to get +1. That means capping strength to 60 at level 30, or doing SAs first and getting strength to 60 at level 40, only cost you 1 SP of gains in the long run (an extra gain at +3 for the former, but one less spent at 2:1 for the latter). Do the same for vision, say, and you lost another skill point. What else are you even going to cap, and is it even proven that 6 0 str/60 vis is worthwhile?

Personally, I'd take 10 levels of far increased performance and give up 2 skill points. If those 2 SP bite me in the ass down the road, so be it, but I see a ton of better ways to come up with 2 skill points (a better roll, training opportunities, simply getting more snaps to level faster lol). Of course my opinion is skewed, because 10 levels = 2 seasons, and these are my slowbuild teams' "glory seasons."

Good points, all.

Wow. I have never trained or touched stamina, It never ever goes below 90 for me. 30 jumping would be very low for a level 40 guy IMO.

Here is the 100% truthful answer. Maybe. If your K/P is doing his job more than most players at his position (meaning your really good for K or really bad for P) you need to add some. If you play them on KR as well you should definitely add stamina.
