Only way to get some attributes near 100.

Sprinting is already crazy expensive at 15 or 20. I should bother to do the math to project how much it'll be at 80.

hmm was looking at your math and wondering why it's only a 10% and 12% cost increase for conditioning toughness and Heart and not a 15% and 17%?
also remember you get a 5% cost increase to every skill and not just those you mentioned, and for a LB makes him one dimensional

Close to 2000 pts for a 1 bar increase at 80

it seems like when atts are that high the dots are seriously lacking in other areas.

Maybe now. I don't know how it works out after some of Cdog's trait changes as I haven't played with it. I mean it always kinda did but it was nice for some builds to work with. Especially a specialized Superstar build.

Came in expecting a player with substantial amount of skills higher than players I made.

Left disappointed

is that necessary tho

I could see Slow Built with the superstar build where you'd net 15% cost reduction on skills. But without SS I don't see it having much value. I haven't run out all the positions with it, but for QB it seemed completely worthless, It allowed me to add 5 points(forget the whole 10) to Pass Tech and Pass Accuracy at the cost of all my Footwork, Sprinting, and Quickness along with healthy chunks of Heart, Dropback Grip, and others.

Of course it's possible I was putting on too much Pass Awareness and Pass Power, but I didn't take those super high and they don't seem like they'd be something to be cutting.

Yeah, you'll have to choose what to forgo. It isn't like GLB1 where you can be great at everything.

I think I set my pass power a lot lower in order to get awareness, technique, and accuracy maxed out. I maxed leadership, and I don't think I made any investment in the Dropback settings. I only had marginal speed, but it was enough for getting out of the pocket and getting the first down when called to do so. 35 or 40 Sprinting was all I ever had on my QB. Heart was still only marginal, something like 40 points. Really good completion %, but I never used long throws.

Yeah I get that you have to forgo some stuff, but it seems like the forgoing is compounded by Slow Built, taking a major stat 10 points higher is already very expensive in terms of the peripheral stats that take a hit because is take 2-5 points of something low to get one point of something high, losing over 10,000 sps on top of that is a gut punch.

But it is free. Many other options are going to force a salary increase. Going with a combination of SB and EB bots will save you 15% on car insurance.
