Wondering what input everyone has on my build. Considering switching his custom EQ from Blk to Str. Currently working on his confidence and then will get his agility to the 2nd cap. Thoughts?

Dare I suggest more Str/Blk. Feel free to spend 3:1 in them.

It is fantastic that you have line gen advanced equipment. Use it well!

Thanks for the input. Im wondering though, what about the Str/Blk ratio? I have seen schools of thought that both say even and some that say more STR. Im really trying to decide how best to use my custom EQ. It is currently Blk 6... Im wondering if I should leave it or switch it to Str. As he is right now, is a C better off 77/77 or should I switch it for 83/71?

Very happy with the line general EQ, which also feeds into why I plan on switching my EQ from run block to pass block to help maximize it even more. Thus my debate on whether to keep it in Blk or switch it to Str.

really? what str/blk do you expect at level 26? How high should he spend on his natural str/blk? It looks like his natural is already up to about 66 of each. So he's going to get to 4:1 without going all that far. I know he's behind what other C's COULD be at this point, but it might be pretty expensive to go that much further by spending SP. Do you have a more specific recommendation than "WAY" more?

Yep. Im at the 4:1 cap on Str, got 1 more to go before I hit the 4:1 in blocking.

Im sure there are better builds and I could have done better; but this builds worked pretty well to this point at least. *shrug*

Really what no one has really answered yet - do you really need a ton more Str than blocking... my biggest concern at the moment is to leave my +6 in Blk or switch it to Str. Leaning towards leaving it as is right now.

I tried it with my center. You can leave it and be fine. I tried all str, then all blocking, then a balance. they all worked good, so I said eff it im going for pancakes and put it all in str lol.

i would put it all in strength since you are a center and not a focal point in pass blocking like a tackle. Usually you double team with the guard or pick up blitzers so i would put it all in strength so you can help out in the run more and get some more pancakes

Getting to 107/80 at level 24 means they spent 4:1 to cap at 72. Not hard to do.. and very stupid.

I agree, they should have got to +6 cap!

Honestly, I regret doing that now with both of my C's.
