ok so i woke up this morning hoping that like when hera first opend i would be able to log on at 9am GMT time. well failure to me and laugh at me for going to bed early so i would be ready to only find the servers will not be open till 12pm GMT >.< well done me. Anyways as i wait patiently and do various things like breakfast my head wonders about my current build.

I always play a char get to around level 30 than get bored *sighs* and than make something new thats just me i guess. but ATLAST i have a lvl 49 char and im not bored with it. yay! ok please dont call me noob this and all that i need some of that awesome advice i know many of you may have. this is my current build.

LVL 49 PURE INT - 5 GAP

FIRE - LVL 44
ICE - LVL 44
LIGHT - LVL 44
HEKUASI - LVL 26
FORCE - LVL 26

Ok i bet your looking at that and going, oh my god NOOB!

here is what i have done using mr bob the veg.

http://bobtheveg.dyndns.org/SRO/Char_Bu ... file=57038

Now ill explain why i have added a few things and what my future plans with this is. ok firstly Force. I took force for one reason only, i have to make money in this game and alchemy is too complicated for me, so i do those wonderfull taxis. Now i have taken force TEMPORARLY so i can protect my customers and also offer res which seems to be why i get alot of clients. Also for my wonderfull guild and union buddies being able to res and help out the lower levels is always a nice plus! As for the healing parts im not really sure why i took them, i took them at early levels. i do plan too totaly d-level force at later levels when the grinding will be lengthy and the cursed hearts will come with the grinding.

Ok now for my weapon Hekusai. I took it as it offers the HP increase and the magical defence from the fan series although i have come to rearlise its very shortly lived.. and also as if i am correct spears do more damage with there nukes. One of my friends said to me that s/s does a fraction less damage and the block is worth more than that tiny fraction.
I took a few of the basic skills as it really did help the grinding at the lower levels when i didnt have any nukes . My question regarding this, i like the s/s and think the weapons look cooler, and the combos are awesone. Is it worth me d leveling the Hekuasi skills and than leveling up Bicheon so i can back flip, side flip and what else ^^. Before i go any further i will like to say i have died a considerable amount of time but this is more through choice. I find dieing and than regaing the level is a great way to farm the SP and also do some cloud watching . It certainly has helped me get lots of nice SP ^^ i also am a SRO freak i play 12+ hours a day and have a prem + so time is not something that will worry me much ^^.

ok now onto the element forces:

Fire, as you can see in my build this is almost fully maxed without some exceptions. this is because i always believed fire + nuke = largest damage. correct me if i am wrong as i say in the topic this is my first nuker build so please dont laugh at me >.< .

Ice this is my defence obviously. Ive found one skill tree perhaps being my most helpfull skill of them all. That is the frost nova series. countless times this has allowed me to either make a great escape or even kill a monster, using this series i killed a penon giant and i dont even have good gear ^^ all thanks to this skill. ok ok so its not that great but for me it was like :O yayness ^^. Snow shield is alose helful *nod nod*.

finally lightning, this is for speed nukes and the concentration. (short but to the point)

as i said im having a LOT of fun with this build but i want it to be strong also so any helpfull advice will be greatly appriecated ^^. also just to say i do have plans in my never ending free time to max ALL the skills in everything i level up. purely just for fun ^^.

I will say again i will be d-leveling the force series but im now thinking of my later levels of 80 - 90. any ideas and helpfull tips will be greatly apprieceated to a first time int chinese player.

Thanking you in advance for your time.

for 90: max light as it has mag dmg increase + nukes, max ice as it has ur snow shield, freezing skills and phys def (that ull have less of cus of being a nuker). ur decision is basically max fire for the highest dmg nukes, max force for resssing and debuffs, or max a wep tree so u can hit ppl with bad stats. ie dull, stun, kb with spear or bleed, impotent, kd, etc with sword.

if i were you, ofcourse ditch force or level it to 30 to make use of all your 300 masterys,


drop fire since you dont need the xtra damage, level cold and lightning to 90 (phy def buffs, mag attack buffs, parry ration buffs, snow shield lightning has strongest nuke, cold has a good nuke, lightning has shock lion series, you will need to level heuksal aswell if you pplay on being a spear nuker, otherwise delevel heuksal and level up bicheon, u will need either heuksal or bicheon to be good enough in pvp. cuz once its close combat and the enemie will keep stunning you knock you down etc you will be annoyed that you cant do anything back except nuking.

so yeah

Bicheon/Heuksal 90
Lightning 90
Cold 90
Force 30 (p0werleveling reason my 65 bower has foce level 32 van ress level 41/42 not sure havent played on it for a while)

firstly thanks mike for the speedy reply ^^

so you think i should dlevel the spear and go s/s?

as for the force im gonna be d-levelign that completely

since the 90 cap will i presum offer 330 skills i could be wrong, how does this sound.

90 light
80 cold
80 fire
80 bicheon

one other question is what about the light force and the fire force series? i have fire force maxed as my build shows. i do as i say plan to level everything but should i now start maxing out the light force series?

thanks again for the comments and replys

Thanks Phix for the info ive seen alot of talk about fire and lightning, i kinda like the fire nukes so i dont really want to dlevel the fire i did a little post above but now im wondering if my prediciton of the 330 masterys will not happen?

heh any help ? ^^

thats a negative. chineese mastery total has been at 300 since 60 cap and JM has said they do not plan on changing the limit.
so ur best choice is to do 3 masteries at 90 and a 4th at 30.
a mastery at 80 or less instead of 90 is not gonna provide enough of an affect.
as a nuker u need ice & light @ 90, and u said ur gonna dlvl force so ither hueskal, bicheon or fire goes to 90. personally id go with bicheon cus of block, the shield techniques that increase phys def/block ratio, kd, and the juicy stats from the 7X and higher skills. then u could ither have heuskal at 30 for a bit extra hp or fire at 30 for a bit extra mag def against other nukers + fire shield skill.

EDIT: goin to bed, i'll check back in the mornin.

thanks once again mike for the answer about 330 masterys been wondering that for a few days now ok ok i may have what im looking at now this is a plan please tell me yes or no. remember im new to the nuker world.

ICE - 90
LIGHT - 90
FIRE - 30
Bicheon - 90

what about the forces? do i now level up the lightning force series?

go to nivlam
http://www.nivlam.com/

thanks for the replys and suggestions all, im doing the following as stated above

Light - 90
Ice - 90
Bicheon - 90
Fire/Force (i havent decided which yet) - 30

p.s. i use that site already its very usefull

ok im glad to help u

there wont be any mastery update masterys wills tay at 300 like they did when the 60 cap was out.

if you want to keep fire i would suggest to either ditch weapon skill and go for teamnuker, but you will suck in pvp since u cant win against a nuker who uses weapon skillz to stun you etc,

otherwise ditch lightning but your magical attack will suffer from that due to the buff you will be missing, Also you wont be able to run away with Ghost walk and Grass walk series. so you'll be slow.

Ditching ice is possible but you will start missing Snowshield at higher levels. well thats all i can help you with its entirely your choise.

you can also take fire and lightning and go for a 7:1 hybrid spear. all your choise.
