I am trying to decide if I should become a hybrid int spear instead of a pure int sword...

Currently... I can't decide upon the 90 cap...

Everyone says I should go 7:1 Fire/Light nuker because you need ice... and I really want to get fire though....

So what would be the best build for what you vote on...?

But pure int has low hp... and 7:1 has a lot more... and the stun and knock-back on spear helps a ton... and I can't think of a good build for 90 cap for either one...

At the end all nukers have to drop weapon masteries so i would suggest going pure INT spear, good overall PvP performance and the grinding is very easy.

Pure Int Spear has the lowest defense... if I am going to go pure int, it will be sword. Pure int spear is mostly for gold farming and PvE...

if you want to get fire you should do 1:2 hybrid spear but keep in mind its not a nuker although it does have high hitting str skills

if you want you can make a 2:1 sword/spear dual light 90 heuskal 90 bicheon 90 and 30 ice/fire its pretty good you have enough hp to tank and can knockdown but for the most part go 7:1 hybrid you can hold on to fire for 80 cap but not when 90 cap comes sadly

Should they? It seems reasonable for now, but come on...That would mean that any pure int chinese would be a weaker version of a wizard...Seems very odd to me. I think it's more likely that they raise the gap or make the chinese stronger is some way.

Well... I heard that the European race will not be getting any new skills at 90 cap... only the Chinese race will... now 100% of this, but I've heard that from a number of people...

...well...I still can't decide on what I should do for my pure int nuker sword/shield... Some people tell me not to get fire... and some people tell me too... so I don't know... This is how I think of it right now...

Cold: The only thing good about cold, is defense, which is crucial to a pure int nuker... you need the snow shield... always will... along with the frost guard series... other than that, the nukes serve no point and are took weak to use as an attack skill.

Lightning: Is a must need for a nuker build. No nuker can leave lightning out... You need Piercing Force Series, Lion Shout Series [Nice To Have], Thunderbolt Force Series, Concentration, Wind Walk Series and Heavens Force Series. So just about everything...

Fire: Fire has some of the most powerful attacks for a nuker. Fire Force Series is the most powerful imbue series you can get... Fire Shield Series is nice to have so you can be fully immune to certain things... especially ice... Fire Protection Series isn't needed if your using garments, but for armor yes... and for protector... kind of "iffy" in my opinion... Flame Body Series is just about worthless to nukers... wont do anything in nukes and probably barely affect you when you use chains... Flame Wave Series, one of the most powerful nukes... All the nukes are more powerful than lightning and have higher %'s on almost all of them too.


Well thats my view on the different forces... and yet I can't decide on a build for 90 cap... Here is some more of my thoughts...

Ice: Its a need... but I don't think it has to be level 90 for you too dominate... I think you can leave it at 80, maybe even 70 and still dominate...

Lightning: Its a must... 90... no exceptions...

Fire: Has the strongest imbues, and nukes... along with good mag defense buffs...but everyone advises me against it... and I am all for it and can't decide... I think this should be leveled high too...

Bicheon: I am thinking I won't really need any skills past level 70, just because I am a nuker... so was thinking about getting it to level 70 and stopping...

So so far I am coming up with this...

Lightning: 90
Bicheon: 70
-----------
70+90 = 160
300-160 = 140
----------
Now my question is how do I distribute the remaining 140 mastery points?

---------

Here is my final thought... people have said it sounds good and bad... so looking for more ideas...

70 Bicheon / 80 Fire/ 60 Ice / 90 Lightning

This means I would only have 1 full mastered...

any ideas?

You get the new knock down along with the double stab. Its usefull for a pure int because if you have a high crit... it will do massive amount of damage...

pure int sword, you will love the extra hp now, but in higher lvls you will miss those %'s of damage your losing, and at lvl lets say 100 whom wants to start over?

Pure int sword currently dominates kSRO at 100 cap... and you need 68 for double stab...

90 Lightning - 82 Fire - 68 Bicheon - 60 Ice

Thats what I am thinking of right now...

You must be new rage!, without snow shield you will die. A pure int without snow-shield will get one-hit. At 90 cap their is going to be a 60% damage reduction on snow shield... 60%!!! A pure int level 90 will only have about 9000HP in total, and a pure str glavie or bow will easily hit that on you in no time...

I am making a new topic now... so discuss it there...

With Bicheon at 70 in 90 cap your not gonna kd a damn thing, just take 90 ice/light/bich, amazing defense + strong light nukes + chain status from bicheon.

Spear is more of the same, you already have high damage so go 7:1 or even 5:1 and once you stun them throw in a nuke followed by a mars, if their not dead by then their probably really low.
