So I was browsing this site http://sro.mmosite.com/database/skills/lightning.shtml and saw the skills in Lightning Mastery from level 90 to 100 doesn't get much better. Besides a small parry increase, and stronger nukes/imbue (which doesn't apply to me), there is no real upgrade. Even at 100cap, 77% moving increase is the highest speed buff. So I thought, instead of wasting all that SP in leveling Lightning Mastery to 100, why not keep it at 80, and have Cold at 20% for the 20% snow shield. So 100 Bicheon, 100 Fire, 80 Lightning, 20 Cold. Or, for 90 cap, 90 Bicheon, 90 Fire, 80 Lightning, 40 Cold. That would give me 30% snow shield, which could be useful in some instances, however in PvP I can use the 25% snow shield.

This build would also save me farming a lot of sp, since im farming now for 90 and it will probably take me a month or two.

For those who will post "WTF 100cap wont be for another 2years!", I dont care, I like to be prepared

you know that sro mmosite is messed up right

im not sure the question here. but if its is that a good idea, id say ya thats a good idea

even so it's right about lightning.

Thats a better build.
you don't absolutely NEED cold, but snow will save you vs. not-so-smart warriors, you'll tank them without a problem. You can easily take a few wiz hits. Glaivers will rarely kill you. Rogues can be a problem, but a couple kd's can kill them.

still, fear criticals if you wear robe, fear magical attack if you wear prot.

yea but 99.9% of rogues run to save zone >.<
