I want to make a Dual weapon: Blade/Glaive.

Now the problem is which build I should take.
Ofcoure Full str with Bicheon and Heuksal maxed. But I've two options for those last 100 masteries.
The options:
100 Fire: Pros: maxed phy att., mag def buff maxed, Imbue maxed (20 lvls of Fire they add % to imbue)
80 Fire 20 Ice: Pros: More Defense, Less SP, Not much difference with 100 fire (snow shield makes up for reduce of mag buff).

I'd like to hear your opinion.

The difference between 100 fire and 80 fire damage wise is so small for a pure str that I'd go with the 20 ice option.

If your not worried about having max fire wall or max stealth/invis detection the 80 fire 20 cold could be the better option...I personally don't find stealth/invis detection an important skill because of the pills you can buy, but some people like it. Maxed fire wall can be nice because you can get a couple hits out of it, but even if it gets 1 hit it can still be effective because you just negated that entire attack.

But because you lost 20 levels of mag def you'd definetely have to go with garm. Some str players prefer protector with maxed fire, but I don't think you'd have much of an option.

On a side note I've always wanted a dual weapon char, but I was leaning towards glavie/bow, new glavie double throw skill+strongbow+ghost spear would be nuts...360%+350%+350%

well... you will get more mp defence with 100 fire,
and with the heuksal passive you should have enough life to tank without snow shield,

question is:
safety with snow shield to tank or go 100 fire and rely on strength.

after 100 cap it will be maxing out the 2 weapon trees anyway and you either leave fire at 80 and get rid of cold, or dlvl fire to 60 and keep snow for snow shield
