pure int you'll be fine. if you go hybrid though, ur gonna wanna tone it down some.

you'd be gonna in trouble, when using snowshield 45% or higher in pvp. im a full str glaive and after some attacks, the full ints don't have enough mp to launch their attacks.

it not a problem for pure int to support it specially if they use swords they take less damage than spear and mostly spear are 2int and 1 str so int hybrids they take a bit more damage

You'll be fine -- as the saying goes, the best offense is a good defense (I think thats right); so go with a full Protector set (I have always thought that there is no need whatsoever to go full Armor as a Chinese, it will only slow you down more -- so protectors will do just fine), NPC will do fine up until 7d, then start +4ing your gear and adding blues as much as you can. Believe me when I say that after you get a good pimped out set + that 53% snow shield, you'll find that many people save for Warlocks will have a tough time killing you. I hate to keep on using ChronicLies in Dynasty (on the Odin server) as my only example, but its amazing how much he can tank as a Pure Int S/S Nuker with 90 Bicheon, 90 Light, 90 Ice and 30 fire. Actually, come to think of it; he is on a 9 gap at the moment and is still tough to beat... but thats besides the point. Although, alot of it comes down on his gear, but lets just say that he is a tough force to fight in PvP. I've seen him tank 6 wizards in Fortress War and live through it all with barely a scratch. You'll be relying on both the Bicheon skills for knockdown as well as nukes + lion shouts. And with the snow shield, youll be hard to kill yet still put out great damage.

If it was too much for a PURE INT, then there wouldnt be no 53% snow shield... you'll be able to handle it fine as long as you stay pure and go with s/s :wink:
