Im struggling on which one to chooose. Here are the 2 choices

(I dont want a very common build btw)

90 Ice 90 Light 90 Force 30 Fire
90 Bich 90 Force 90 Ice 30 Light

please comment on which one you think is better.

thanks,

I'm assuming this is an int char. Spear or s/s?

1. 90Ice/90Light/90Force
   This is a good build at this cap (90 cap), as it has available a nuke near to his level, another one 4 lvls below, some shouts to choose from and also a cold AoE nuke (the other ones are pretty weak). At 100 cap, it'll have only one strong nuke from lightning (the other one will be 14 lvls below), the shouts and one strong nuke from ice. It'll be kinda hard to PvP with only those I believe. That's why I do not really suggest this build for 100 cap, though I think it'll still do good there (as long as you are able to debuff with force skills).
   
   
2. 90Bich/90Force/90Ice
   Your defense would be okay, the problem would be your damage because of no light neither fire. But then, you have force debuffs which would increase your damage, well I really don't know how you'd do with it. Therefore I cannot suggest you to go with it, though you could try if you accept the risks (which are not that big).
   
   My suggestion:
3. 90Fire/90Cold/90Force
   Why I suggest this? At 90 you have two strong fire nukes (one of them being the strongest nuke you can possibly take with a chinese char). At 100 you'll still have two (and maybe three, if you use Wide which would be 10 lvls lower but then with 330% multiplier and AoE) strong fire nukes. Fire has the strongest imbue, and as a pure int, it'll certainly help you. Fire has also a lot of useful buffs, mag def buff, de-stealth and de-invisible, fire wall and the buff which helps you to become immune to statuses. I'm not saying this is the best though, I just like it, and it'd be original, I've never seen someone using this one. Cannot guarantee it will work though. It'd lack the lion shouts, even though it's nukes are stronger. You could also maybe use cold nukes instead of lion shouts, I'm not sure.

Note: I assume/suggest you to go pure int s/s with any of these above.

I need to start saving these long posts you write for future reference

just to add ... most posts seemed to forget to mention that light nukes have a shorter range than cold and fire nukes. for players who prefer to stay away and nuke from distance should take note.

... a full int doesnt need any weapon skills at all... especially S/S

1/1 pvp is true.. but thats not all the game has to give

he would be a formidable Unique hunter or would be able to do good taxis and good support damage in a 8/8 battle

+1
This build would be very good at everything except for 1vs1 pvp.

=/ Yea it would be pure int. well it would mainly be for 1 v 1 pvp. and i dont want a common build. I already have a lv 90 wizard/cleric for uniques, so i was looking into a char for 1 v 1 and jobbing
