Serve stick berserker

When you have this skill set does your players also need to have lots of power in order to maximise it or does only the serve stat have any bearing on your serve i.e is 90 serve 60 power the same weapon as 90 serve 80 power when it comes to the serve alone. Hope this makes sense probably could have explained it easier

The plcement will be the same, but 80 power will make the ball move faster, if that is what you mean.

Serve stat = more precise aiming during serve

Power stat = more powerful everything including serve

I think the serve stat affects the speed of the serve almost as much as power -- sometimes it seems like people with 85 on serve and 70 on power (just making rough estimates here) serve faster/harder than people with 70 serve and 85 power.

It's not just the MPH/KPH of the serve either; sometimes a serve that the meter only shows at 105 MPH seems faster when you are playing the game than a serve at 125 MPH when the person hitting what is supposedly a slower serve has a higher serve stat. It's strange.

I have to agree on that. You don't need power to hit a heavy serve... mostly just the serve stat.

If the guess of djarvik is right, the high stat in serve makes its time window larger => much more perfectly timed serves => more powerfull and precise serves.

Plus, high stat provides to the shots more consistency.

Sometimes, I can make a 190+km/h with 44 in serve and 50 in power but it's really rare.
