Take Str up to 74 (or 77) immediately.

Well, I have been building two Gs side by side for a few seasons after building an ok guard earlier. In my opinion I say taking strength to 69 before level 10 is a must. Others might say to keep going pushing strength to 74 or even higher. Both seem like good answers but I prefer stopping at 69 with 85% to 90% trained. The training of course would have been sandbagged early on before reaching the first softcap.

I like to stop at 69 so I can address other skills early and leave time for SAs way down the line. My plan goes as listed below:

Intense or normal training can be used for most these. I generally use a combination of both to get the 85% to 99% trained

* Cap your first skill (strength) with 85% to 99% trained no later than level 3
* train your second skill (blocking) while taking strength to 69 with 85% to 99% trained by level 10.
* Continue training your second skill (blocking) until you can cap it and have 85% to 99% trained usually by level 13 at the latest.
* Train your third skill (agility) while taking blocking to 74 with 85% to 99% trained. Usually around level 25ish.
* Train both strength and blocking until you have gained one point in each to take advantage of the saved 85% to 99% training.
* keep training agility until you can cap it with 85% to 99% trained.
* Take agility to 77 with 85% to 99% trained while training vision/confidence.
* somewhere around level 38ish vision and confidence should be in the range of 39 to 41+ from training. This would be a great point to cap them both with 3 boosts if you time it right. You can then get back to working on agility while continuing to intense train vision/confidence to 56 after capping them both.
* You should be able to have agility at 77 with 85% to 99% trained by level 42ish.
* Train agility a couple times to get the last point out of it.
* Start training speed/stamina and take vision/confidence to 61
* You will want to save SP on speed/stamina until both can be capped with 3 levels of SP. So this is a great time to either take confidence to 68 or work on some SAs.
* Once speed and stamina are trained to 41ish cap them both and train them to 56. Training from 48 to 56 takes about two offseasons and one full season but it saves you 2 levels of SP per skill.
* Finally take speed to 61 sometime in your mid to high level 50s.
* Finish your SAs from this point on. If you have AE with SAs it will help. If not you may have to start sooner to reach 10 in useful SAs.

Oh, and put all eq into strength. Blocking and agility should be high enough from level gains after taking them both so high early on.

That is my plan wrong or right. Good luck.

I am actually working on this now. I did it before but stopped at the first cap. I have 2 Gs and one is taking agility to 77 as the 3rd skill while the other is taking confidence to 69 as the third skill. Keep in mind that the confidence G is playing LG and pancakes the crap out of weaker DTs so I am not sold yet on which G is better.
