Does anyone have HJS activated on GT Benjamin? How did you do it?

Did the creator mess up? HJS is an option on the first ability slot. Mine is locked says I need 95 agility to unlock it. My agility is at 90 w boost. How do I get his agility up to unlock it?

I am surprised every time this happens. We are almost 9 months into Madden and people still don't understand that chems don't affect a card's ability to unlock abilities.

Sorry for wanting hjs on my card. EA doesn't list requirements in the game. Thanks for being a jerk

bjorklunde

But it does list a requirement: 95 Agility. You have not met that threshold, therefore no HJS for you.

beachbummuthead

It doesn't say threshold required. It doesn't say can't unlock if met with boost

bjorklunde

It literally says you need 95 agility to get HJS. That is what we call a requirement. Also, when you go into the upgrade section, you’ll notice your chem boosts are no longer affecting your ratings. That should be a big red flag for ya.

beachbummuthead

Boost do help and raise my ratings. OK bro got it

LJG23

Oh and some people might have gotten the game last month there is that too but yeah trolling people for what they don't know is a great default.

LJG23

If madden was more like football and less like a RPG it wouldn't take people nine months to figure out how to play.

He doesn't have the agility to get it as others have said, but at his size he really shouldn't get it, he's basically a te... He doesn't need it either, wr apprentice, post flag or out corner or streak, route tech and your choice of a 4th ability and he's amazing, makes me smile every time someone tries to press him only to have him run right by them for 6

beachbummuthead

I'm not a hot route guy. I pick many formations and plays so hot route doesn't appeal to me. I'd like hjs since it is an option for him. If he can't get it why put it on his card.?

VoodooToo

If you have HRM on your QB, you don't need it in your wr

beachbummuthead

I don't hot route I like to use many formations not just one. People who change routes at the line every play are annoying just like Peyton Manning was watching him play. I'm more of a Joe or Brady guy just call the play run it, get it done. The coach is there for a reason the qb is not the playcaller

VoodooToo

I didn't use to use HRM till I got Brady. But when I face opponents who make crazy adjustments on defense, customizing route combinations is a must. I've won more than a few games but looking at the way the defense was positioned, then calling a combo to exploit it

beachbummuthead

Maybe I'll try it then see hiw UT goes. Just don't do it on every play it gets annoying waiting for them to do it every play. This ability has kinda ruined played out hr cause people cause just run the same play non stop with it instead of trying new plays out, so I kinda hate it. I'm not playing for $1000 just to pass time and have fun, not wait 20 secs every play

xxbucknut17xx

All cards have abilities they can't get that are listed, all abilities for each archetype are listed for each slot, then which ever requirements are met those abilities are unlocked, he has deep threat as 1 of his archetypes, all WRs with deep threat will have HJS as on option, but it will only unlock if the WR meets the 95 agility threshold, this separates guys the big physical receivers like Benjamin from a small agile guy like Tyreek Hill, I understand wanting to put it on him, trust me I have him and would absolutely put it on him if I had the option but I fully understand why he doesn't get it and agree with him not getting it...

beachbummuthead

Thanks for telling me. It would be funny to see a huge dude running like t Hill or Barry. Too bad the guy who made him didn't boost his agility to 95, that's what I would done. He's already huge he didn't need jump boosted

Nacaw

Pretty sure they weren't allowed to boost physicals. This card is boosted in carrying, CIT and release I think.

beachbummuthead

I do love high point passing to him

xxbucknut17xx

Yeah speed and agility boosts would have been awesome but he has been a beast as is. I run a chiefs TT so 97 speed makes him even tougher to guard with his size, and pairing him on 1 side of the field with him split wide and hill in the slot allows for some fun route combos to cause issues for the defense

StickWork7

Shoukd be able to unlock it with team chems

beachbummuthead

KC 40/40 only give +1 agility. Shaker can get +1 agility and madden Chem can get +1 agility too but still two short of 95

brandenwest66

You can’t chem up a stat to unlock abilities. It has to be stock 95 agility to get HJS.

Addict856

This^

beachbummuthead

He has HJS as an ability on his card but it is locked. Why put it on if you can't unlock it?

brandenwest66

Because every receiver has HJS as an available ability if they have the Deep Threat Archetype. Some just don’t have the agility to unlock it. Randy Moss is the same way, he has it as an available ability but his Agility is only 93 so therefor he can’t unlock it.

brandenwest66

Basically the abilities that show up on the card are the same for every player that has that archetype. They’re not specific to the player.

beachbummuthead

Well that sucks my ass

StickWork7

Huh... Didn't know that..

brandenwest66

Yea they did it that way so abilities are more exclusive to the types of players

beachbummuthead

So no huh? What's the point of putting it in the card if you can't get it unlocked?

NorrinRadd122

This is EA. They made Derrick Brooks, the best coverage LB ever, useless because they didn't put plays ball aggressive on him.
