Customizing Archetypes

[kcheng686]

Endurance is another off limit ability to lower.  Fuck dude.  You've managed to respond to this proposal 3 times without figuring out anything about it. 

No matter Arizona let you stay at WR.  If you read the QB like you read posts you'd get burned on every play.

I did read your proposal actually. Else I wouldnt care to comment.

The thing you dont understand is that this is a game of optimization.

If speed can be upgradeable, most players will sacrifice their least impactful stats to upgrade it. Even if you make speed unchangeable, all that will do is make players focus on maxing out their second most impactful skill at the cost of their least impactful one. Even in your example you maxed out speed at the cost of your 2 least important stats. Why would any other linebacker not do the same?

And thats where every customization post falls flat. Obviously its a fine idea with good intentions, but the thing is that sometimes things that work in theory can be easily exploited in practice.

And this is actually useless for kickers, who have 2 total useful stats.

Thanks.  I'm not on SHL, so if you saw any kind of exploits or limits to prevent exploits, I'd love to hear them.

SHL is really a totally different system. Based on your archetype, you pick 3 strengths and 1 weakness. The 3 strengths are the only 3 attributes you can raise above 90. The weakness is 1 attribute which maxes out at 85, and takes double the TPE to increase. Your choice of weakness is limited by your archetype. Strengths are as well, but typically you can pick 1 or 2 attributes of your choice.
