Bow till 30 and then switch to S/S or Spear when you get nukes.

how would that work when bow is best in str and nuker isnt str, so wouldnt it lvl slower as your putting your stats into int

Using bow from lvl 1 to 30 is faster, compared to spear or s/s. You do less running around, but you deal comparable damage. At lvls 1~2x, the stats are similar, so you wont notice any char as being an int or a str. Having said that, int chars before lvl 30 rely on shout, and imbue damage using weapons before they get their nukes. Of the 3 weapon skills, heuksal will clearly deal more damage than other weapon trees (the phy damage range of the skill is more relevant at lower levels; the (%) next to the skill, use this as a guide, the higher the % the stronger your imbues will be). So you will see jumps in your damage output being a pure int pacheon (below lvl 30) whenever you get a new book with a higher (%) for the skill.

Yeah, I've done this with my current pure int, and bow was faster than I believed it to be originally @_@. With my exp. with pure ints (in this case only counting Lvl1~Lvl30) leveling within those levels went by the fastest while I used bow...I'd definately recommend using bow till 30.

Use bow till you're lvl 30 and it'll go by like nothing. You definately don't needa move a lot from mob to mob, which means faster grinding efficiency ^,^ (I kept a 2 gap from Lvl7~Lvl30, then 1 gap afterwards and switched to spear [going s/s later])

http://www.silkroadforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=47963 Use that guide....it works wonders for pure ints (got to lvl42 in just 2 weeks w/o silk or a premi).

lols i just went:

Bicheon = 20
added all skill books and LEFT it at lv 1 except for the shield BR passive.

then used it to lv 30 and used only nukes and saved the weak KD and stabs

gear is the most important thing so its not a big differ between s/s & spear
