Silkroad Online Forums

Ok i am back again now. I play on ecsro now so hehe.

I cannot deicde which weapon to use for a full int chinese nuker. I want a char that is a PvE master, like trading (1 star), and lvling and killing fast. Many people say s/s is for PvP, and spear is PvE. But about bow? Why do people say that it is not good for nuker? Becase it is also so ranged so i am thinking if i go bow, i can always use ranged attacks, nukes or weapons. No matter what it always will be range. Bows are pretty good at nuker too arn't they? So why are peopling saying bow is not good at nuker? it kills pretty fast and stuff?

So for PvE master, should i go spear, or bow nuker? i am leaving s/s cuz low dmg. but why SHOULDN'T i go bow? cuz spear gets a ranged attack but thats at lvl 31.

Edited: Lol I didn't read the ecsro part

Don't go pure int bow on ecsro, it'll suck without snowshield IMO.

if it's for Ecsro, that changes things....

Probably better going with Heuksal, Fire, Lightning...if you're going for pure PvE build.

Not so sure about about going bow...

the only AoE attacks it had before the skills update was Explosion Arrow and Autumn Wind...

Out of the 2 strongest attacks (devil arrow and strongbow), one of them has a 7 sec charge time ...

meh...do watcha want, but if you're looking for an int build that's still using 70 cap skills, it seems better to go s/s or spear.

what do you mean 70 cap? my friend told me he has a freind that is 89, on fembria server. and isn't heuskal/light/cold better? i need to survive and stuff, and light is really good for imbue and attacks.

but i like ranged and i don't get nukes until lvl 30 or 21-32 for sp farming. and spear gets ranged at lvl 31, and s/s gets ranged attack at lvl 14, but it's low dmg. And also when i am grinding, if i only use imbue and regular weapon attack it is slow, so i need weapon mastery too.

so i want to go bow, but idk why people say it is not good for a pure int nuker.

*cough* ECSRO has the SKILLS capped at lvl 70 skills. That means the skills aren't updated. No Snowshield = bad for pure int. At least sword has def buff and spear as mag def buff, but bow has nothing. It'll just stand there until it gets hit and dies. For iSRO and other versions, it's a decent build. You have the option of snowshield and access to kb. For ECSRO, it's if you want to get pwned alot.

what do you mean no snow shield? say if i choose bow my build will be pacheon, cold, light. so how no snow shield when i will have cold force? i don't get it. snow shield is not a weapon skill, it's a force skill.

And which ever weapon, should i choose light imbue or cold imbue? because i like cold better, it looks cool and sounds cool, and also freezes and slows enemy. but lightning more dmg and only 20% electrify thingy? so which ones

ECSRO does not have the snow shield skill. It only has the skills that we had at 70 cap.

WOW SAY WORD YOUR RIGHT!!!

ok but which of s/s or spear kills faster? spear is more dmg at once, but s/s is faster attacks and ranged move comes early. i think s/s? it's fast but idk about spear, i am trying one out right now

It is your personal preference. S/S has more survivability but spear has more damage. In my case, I chose to go dual weapon and take S/S and spear

ok i chose s/s it's better yeta yeta yeta

now i am wearing armor for defence, so should i use cold imbue or light imbue? plz tell me quickly

without snow, i'd say cold buff.

shouldn't i use lightning? it does moree dmg and has 20% chance of slowing down too?

W...T...F.... Out of curiosity, have you even bothered to log on to ECSRO and open the skills menu....

Ice slows down, Light does more dmg and reduces parry. Since everyone has pills, light is useless as the parry decrease lasts for like .25 secs. Ice however will also last as short, but if frozen their attacks will be automatically canceled.

OMG!! people never read

i don't care about pvp!!

i just want pve like trading and grinding.

screw pvp!!!

it sucks!!!

lightning imbue is more dmg, way more dmg, and it slows down cuz of shock, and i am already wearing armor, and using a shield so i don't need defence. so thats why i should lightning??

HUH?!

Well you obviously don't so whatever >_>. Go read the description of lightning imbue, than come back here. Better yet, go ahead and try that and see how badly you get raped.

You either don't speak english or have never logged on the dam game. Go log on, and read the freaking description. Or read what we wrote. LIGHT DOES NOT SLOW DOWN! It makes you SLIGHTLY weaker than normal by reducing parry. ICE SLOWS DOWN, but has the weakest imbue and nuke.

well wtf there is no point of ice imbue only for more defence. so i can use lightning.

and how will i get raped? i will never pvp

and yes light does, maybe in the newer version idk. because it has shock 20% that slows them down.

and yes i speak english and yes i logged in and read it. it's not my fault ecsro is so old. i just care about exp and gold

I'm pretty sure light NEVER slowed anything down... have you ever played the game or do u just log on and stare at the pretty colors???

ok wow ur done. YOU have never logged in. idk about ecsro, but in regular silkroad, i have used it and it has a chance to shock and slow monster down. well i don't care about that, it just does more dmg then cold, since i am all int nuker. 70 bich/70 light/70cold

Ok for one thing, calm down. Lightning imbue does NOT slow anything down, u can test it as many times as u want. In any sro.

And im pretty sure ecsro's lvl cap is 90 (With 70cap skills). Some skill descriptions in sro are a bit vague, so they can say some things tht don't really happen.

YEAH I NKWO THAT , 90 LVL CAP WITH 70 SKILLS

and i played with lightning imbue with the shock effect and it slowed monster down a bit so i would know. so lightning is much better than stupid cold. you already wear armor and use s/s anyway, so it's best to go lightning.

I've also played with lightning imbue and im almost 100% sure (with many others) tht it does not slow mobs down.

And nukers don't have to wear armor. For one thing, u seem to not want fire (unless i haven't read poperly), which means ur quite low on magical defence. IMO, u may as well go with fire and lightning if ur not gonna pvp, u should survive well enuf w/o cold and the benefits of fire are good.

well i don't need fire, so why should i take it? i want bich/light/cold. most common build. and yes lightning does slow down for a bit. it's electric shock. and I want to wear armor. i don't care if they don't HAVE to, but i WANT to. so yeah. it's better for me to go bich/light/cold. basic nuke build

Electric shock reduces parry, which has nothing to do with movement speed. Don't argue that it does, I have been using that imbue for YEARS.

ok w/e enough of that i know what i saw case closed

now is bow good for all int nukers? then it's all ranged and stuff so i can attack fro mrange since i like bow

Good luck getting anymore help from this forum when you're that hardheaded. You seem to already know what you want than so why bother asking us if you're just gonna go ahead and do whatever the **** you were gonna do in the first place regardless of what we tell you.

Last post in this topic. Ciaou

how bout..

1) go **** ur self

2) go **** ur 2 robot dads

and 3) go **** your pathetic lord and savior

**** off Farking homo

U don't need cold either. After all, thts pretty much wat ur saying...



Only reason why bicheon/light/cold is a basic nuker build is because of snow shield. Without snow shield, why get cold because u don't "need" defense.

because you get cold for the passive physical defence buff. and the active physical defence buff. plus the nukes that slow down. you cna use that first followed by a lightning nuke to finish off. pluz cold has cold wave and frost nova to freeze. thats really helpful.

And Bobby is my first name!! ZOMG

Ahahaha...

Trading -at least the ones that matter a bit- will most likely have some PvP in it.
