What is your player rating in endurance and balance?

And did you bother putting anything in shit like awareness? Sometimes I'm not sure if putting all my points in one thing is better than having shot blocking and stick checking both be like in the high 60s

I'll post my build in a little bit.

Shot blocking only affects how fast your player gets back up from going to block shots. It's worthless.

Why do you have awareness maxed, what does it do?

I'm fucking done with pick up games. Either you get an incompetent goalie or all people do is pause, and then let their player stand there for the rest of the game.

Why I get punished for it I will never know.

Yep, never play with human goalies, it takes 10 times longer to get your grade up. Your build is interesting Marvie, I have a playmaker build, but your build has almost the same stats plus a lot of other high attributes I don't have, I might switch over. I'm just playing well now and don't wanna fuck with that, but I can just switch back if it doesn't work.

Does someone mind exlaining to me what exactly "boost pack attribute levels cannot be combined with attribute adjustments" means? E.g. The effects of a +3 strength boost? Or does it only apply to the "full package" boosts?

means you can only do one or the other

use a boost pack
or
use XP + equipment boosts

if you buy and equip a boost pack it freezes your attribute ratings at whatever the boost pack gave you, no matter how much XP or what level you gain, they stay the same. Boost packs are only good for when you start out as gaining XP and getting to the Superstar and Legend levels give you more points to use in the long run.

if you unequip the boost pack and decide to use your XP to determine your ratings, you can't "stack" the boost pack on top of that afterwards.

hope that helps

But you still gain XP and can allote them, even with a boost pack active, right? It just won't have an effect... But you'll catch up to the boost pack stats faster since you're a "better" player, and then once caught up you can deactivate the boost pack and start using attributes from then on?

Also what do you mean by freeze... What if you bought the boost pack when already 90+? Or does it give you a set attribute rating, not a bonus?

Boost packs give you a set rating. You can still earn attribute points while using a boost pack but they have zero effect. Once you catch up to your boost pack you can remove it and use your attribute points.

If you're already a 90 and you use a boost pack, your player will be at whatever the boost pack's attributes are. It's not a bonus.

we passed a new rule while you were gone, check the OP Post #1, Paragraph #4, Line #7: NO BRO'S ALLOWED

...now if you admit that your feeble dangling skills pale in comparison to my unbelievable stickhandling, and that I am without a doubt THEE BEST NHL12 player you have ever had the good fortune to see play... well then I might consider putting in a good word... if I'm having a good day today tomorrow

interesting fact, while I was looking up synonyms for peon to try to insult you I found the following:

Quote:
peon

Someone with the lowest social standing, such that commoners may pee on them with impunity. One social level below serfs, untouchables, and freshmen.
that is some low shit, 1 full level below a serf and people pee on you??? that's rock bottom
