WOW, just read the tread on Level 29 C- 10 SP to spend

And I though I knew stuff about building.

Questions? (I'll post my C at the end for review)

What is with Line Gen for capping?
How do you calc the natural leveling just for soft cap, etc.

I have been just luck I guess with pumping up my STR. But how do you calc this stuff - is there a thread somewhere?

Here is my Center (open view)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=467985
Has a 67 str. & 63 Blocking natural.

WHy do I keep pumping - how does natural growth work?

Does the level up % increase with the level of str. (If that is what I was getting in the post).

Should I be moving my blocking equip over? What would be the strong argument there?

Thanks for helping the seemingly ignorant!

Strength: 79 Blocking: 69

Automatic level gains:

http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=25826

Please notice: till lv. 22 a C gets +1 strength, +1 blocking - but beginning at lv. 23 +0.75 strength +0.75 blocking

So as your guy levels, he's at strength 67.75, blocking 63.75 (lv. 23) and strength 68.5, blocking 64.5 (lv. 24).

The level ups don't increase, but they got worth more.

A +0.75 is worth 0.75 Skill Points as you got a skill below 48. But if you got the same +0.75 and your skill is just above 70 - then this +0.75 is worth four times the gain (for you have to pay 4 Skill Points to raise +1).

That's about all you got to know. Since it gets ridiculous expensive to raise already high skills, it's a huge advantage to raise them early to the soft caps and "let them grow" without paying that worse price.

Personally, I like blocking more than strength. You got to find out, what works for you.

Got it.

Thanks!

Move equip to blocking? or balance?

Never balance. Always dump all of your equipment into one attribute.

RAPB explained it pretty good, the most competitive builds at level 15 won't work later on cause they didn't hit the caps.

You've a decent build but you wasted a few points by not pushing strength/blocking enough. You will also waste even more points in training from not having one of your lower attributes low enough to train it efficiently. That said your build is decent.

I have a question reguarding my OG when would you stop putting points in strength/blocking? at 61? or continue higher?

I'd probably continue to 68 but 60 is a common enough stopping point for guards in me experience

I'm a little short of the 4:1 cap in blocking (will hit it by the final boosts this season; strength is there already). That's where I aim first. If your team can support it and you are patient enough to wait, even 4:1 cap might be worth it.

What are the gains per level in STR and BLK after lvl 24 for a guard? Anyone got the link again? Thanks.

.5

a G has 3 majors, and points spread between majors starts at 2, and goes down to 1.5. so by the time a G is lvl 24, str (and blk/conf) will go up 1.5/3 per level.

wait...

let me see...

...

well, sure something isn't enough. Get it up a.s.a.p.

(Great build. He's got vision and confidence to still train on effectivly, didn't go overboard on SAs and got his primary attributes to insane levels. What a monster!)
