Ag 6 or above makes unmodified agility roll 1+.
Quick pass adds 1, but, 1 is always a critical failure, so it's +1.
Short pass is no modifer it's +1.
Long pass is -1 so it's +2.
Long Bomb is -2 so it's +3
AG 5 is +2
Quick pass is +1, so it's +1.
Short pass is no modifer,so it's +2.
Long pass is -1, so it's +3.
Long Bomb is -2, so it's +4
With accurate on AG 6, makes long pass 1+ and long bomb +2 and if the player had strong arm Long bomb would be 1+ as well.
If a player could get maybe an aglity 4 and catch in the opponent's they could just shoot the ball in the endzone turn 2 maybe. |

That is only 1 side of the story. The other side is you need to avoid fumbble the pass. That is 2+. Long bomb makes it 4+. Agility is not involved in that. If you doubt then test it yourself. |

Why are you passing anyway? Passing is for noobs and people who have inverted goatees. I even saw a guy without a shirt try a pass once, but he wasn't buff at all, I think he was just hot or too stupid to know how to put one on.
If you're like me you only try to pass when you misclick, and even then, it's probably after getting hit in the head by a dumbbell you were working your tris with.
Moral or the story? Real men don't pass. |

Look at it this way when it comes to passing.
You have accurate and Strong arm for +2, you throw a Long Bomb -2. SO, you fumble the ball on a 1 roll.
Ag 5 is 2+ for accurate pass and 1 you fumble
AG 6 is 2+ for accurate pass and 1 you fumble
You always fumble on a natural 1.
AG6 is godly for dodging and picking up the ball. |

AG6 is Two Heads and almost Big Hand rolled into one.
AG5 begs for Leap, +ST and Frenzeh.
But there is always Sneaky Git.
Oh, and please leave the KonfuzARR things to me. |

AG6 is better than AG5 the way AG5 is better than AG4, except for passes. Passing is less common than dodging or picking up or catching, and not much more common than intercepting, unless the player is a dedicated passer, in which case AG6 is still nice 'cuz such players do a lot of pickups and AG6 allows for shenanigans. |

I made this chart a few years back which may be helpful.
Also on TFF here. |

AG6 is a case of diminishing returns. I would take it on a Wardancer and mayyybe on a Gutter Runner or Wood Elf Catcher, because they can afford the skill slot. I'd skip it on anyone else. |

I'd say a vamp makes better use of it than any of those.
Reliable gaze even in a crowd is crazy good, and it's one of the few situations you can say you'll probably use the +AG every game. |

If you don't take AG6, how are you ever going to get to AG7?
