Hi silkroadforums. im starting now, ive become familiar a bit and im starting my first character. People tell me a pure int sword is good, is it? light and ice and bicheon. please help me

pure int sword? so i'm assuming your going for a 'nuker' build. it's pretty good, with snow shield on (increases your def.) you can tank good and still do great dmg.

and yea the popular build seems to be 90bicheon/90light/90ice for 90 cap.

there is a good guide already written about this build on the guides and tutorials section, try looking there. but remember since it's pure int...you WILL die more than str chars lol. so don't give up...oh and good luck sp farming

i'd say euros are a bit easier to start off with, since no imbue and all u do is click a single button to attk :]

the only drawback would be the potdelay tat gives chinese and advantage

china is more noob freindly. I suppose if you start a first character as euro then you wouldnt know what its like as china and would deal with the differences later in the game. As for a new character, just go slow and try out different things, you might read that you really like a certain build. but find something else more interesting to you or comes more naturally. And as for any pure int, good gear is a must unless you wanna spend tons of time running back to grind after you die. lol

euro will just destroy chinese if stupid joymax doesnt do something about the chinese level cap. its just screwed up right now. 300 just isnt enough, and i dought you can go very long without a weopon build or just one or two weak forces. immagine a level 150 euro freak with both 2h warrior and cleric maxed out against a lil chinese str glavie with 150 heuksal and lightning. 2h sword does atleast twice the damage a glavies does. rather joymax fix the skill cap, or joymax fix the weopon damage. chinese builds are scewed cuz split builds who maxed out their weopon masteries at level 60 or 80 will have 70-90% less damage. tough luck.

anyway start off with a euro mage i say. all you do is go to your grinding spot, flick fire trap on, and blast everything within range and if anything comes close to you... BAM! fire trap blows the thing up. after you get atleast 50k or something you might wanna start chinese cause i say in the beggining, you NEED hp pots.

i really hope the euro cap never increases lol...can't imagine making a 90warrior90cleric90bard char...or a 90wiz90warlock90cleric30bard char...i'll die of sp farming.

euro build WILL cost you less sp...so it's more newbie friendly imo. just focus on ONE build..like 2h warrior or wizard...don't try for subclass until much later.

chinese build is a little more complex (the diff. trees and what not) and will take longer since you might have to farm a bunch...actually you will HAVE to farm a lot.

euros cant use all 300 mastery lvls till lvl 150, so how are you getting that "90warrior90cleric90bard" ? At lvl 90 they only get 180 masteries?

If they add more than 300 imagine the SPs...

Chine STR is more noobfriendly but i started out as a nuker its fun to play due to high damage throughtout the entire game although i prefer my STR bow now..

yeah Ice/light/Bicheon (INT) is a good build.. for (STR) go Light/Fire/Bicheon.

You can't ask them to raise china cap and not euro. At the end of the game each race will have 300 masteries,its just that euro gets masteries as they go and china has early access to all masteries points. Once they release the islamic race we can see how that is gonna do for masteries.
