medium shield training question

[Kazner]

What is the best way to train when you have a medium shield?

3x shield
1x dodge
2x pf

or

2x shield
2x dodge
2x pf

or lastly

3x shield
3x pf
0 dodge

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Thanks Kaz

The best way would be

3x shield
3x dodge
3x PF

Hope that helps.

I wish I had enough to do that only 64

If you are set on a medium shield you'd probably get the most DS from 2x shield/dodge/pf. You'd get the most shield points and redux from 3x shield/PF, which you might find more beneficial. Eventually 3xing all the things is best but that isn't something one does precap, obviously(Droit).

I don't understand. Are you saying there are people with less than 15m exp? How do they...survive? They must just lay around and try not to choke to death on their own drool, I'd imagine, since they can't really do anything. Like retarded infants.

I love max shield for the shit ton of points. Lots of fun maneuvers there that could be really handy.

for most of my life I think i did
3 shield
2 PF
tanked dodge (I threw some points in but it was pretty embarassing)

And I turned out OK. Working dodge back up now. I had assumed with a large shield and heavy armor my returns on dodge would be less to a point they were better spent elsewhere, but as it grows I feel that was in error as I dodge a decent amount (relative to block/perry). Probably a misunderstanding on my part based on the Dodge Mastery CMAN getting double dicked by heavy armor/large shield.

if I did it over again I would do 3,2,1.

[Kazner]

Thank you. I think I will try it 3,3, and any left over then if I find it not working go to 3,2,1. Now to find a couple fixskills

I know, pretty crazy that people don't just start the game that way.

If you're going 3/3/0... you'd be better off using a tower than a medium.
