Developing signature skills

[rebel_studmuff]

I know that in assosiation mode players do gain and lose signature skills but I was wondering if anyone knew how to tell what attributes players need to get the skills or how to go about developing my players to get the skills.

Re: Developing signature skills

I would also like to know the requirements for a player to develop a skill. Can a player like Jimmer Fredette eventually earn the signature skill "floor general" if I were to keep developing his offensive awareness and passing into the 90s?

Re: Developing signature skills

After one or two seasons, Kawhi Leonard and Paul George got lockdown defender...I think it's just the way they went up... After checking, George has 82 on ball and Leonard has 80. I'm going to do some testing and simulating to see when exactly they got it.

Re: Developing signature skills

Okay so after simming one season, Leonard went up by one overall point to an 81 but he developed lockdown defender. Meanwhile, George went up by three to an 86 and still doesn't have it. Surprisingly, Jrue Holiday also developed it. After going into specifics, George's on ball defense is an 84, Leonard's is an 81, and Holiday's is an 84. But I also looked at Defensive awareness and Leonard's is an 85, George's is an 84, and Holiday's is an 86. My guess is that they factor both Defensive awareness and On ball defense for guards, and low post defense and d awareness for bigs. But I have yet to see a big man develop lockdown defender.

Tab Gibson has lockdown defender but I don't see rhyme or reason for why.

In my fantasy association Shane Battier developed Defensive Anchor after a couple years...

Re: Developing signature skills

In my online association Ibaka added the lockdown defender after year one; as did Leonard and Holiday. I am not sure about the offensive sig skills. Could these additions be hardcoded for progression?

Re: Developing signature skills

Also, Stephen Curry got Closer after 3-4 years.

A number of people like Ibaka and Batum got ChaseDown artist as well.

Re: Developing signature skills

I made two different files of simming the same season.In one Jeremy Lin(i controlled the Rockets) got dimer and Brandon Jennings nothing.In the second Brandon Jennings got dimer and Lin nothing.Also Harden received deadeye .On the end of the second season i saved right after the last game of the playoffs and before the game goes to offseason.I also had given untapped potential last year's training camp to Royce White.Royce added on one save 5 points overall and got the post playmaker. On the other savefile he also added 5 points overall with identical bonuses to individual attributes(i wanted to check if his pass rating was any different and it wasn't) and he didn't develop post playmaker.Instead T-Rob got finisher.

All this leads me to believe that adding sig skills has nothing to do with attributes and it's really down to randomness(e.g. if your player has 82+ pass rating he may or may not develop dimer).

So are we saying that players develop sig skills in online dynasty???

Re: Developing signature skills

Yes, players develop sig skills in online association. As the previous post mentioned, it may be random which player receives the sig skill. Loosely based on specific attributes for that skill. Read the "my player" attribute ratings to see the required number for each skill to activate.

Examples:
2nd year:
Holiday - lock down defender
Leonard - lock down defender
Ibaka - lock down defender
George - lock down defender

3rd Year
Holiday - Floor General
