I think you're better off leaving the heuksal out, you will get problems with masteries later in the game, it's not worth it imo.

For the rest it looks good, though you're better off having lightning as your max mastery than bicheon, since you're a nuker.

Also there is no rush in maxing the bicheon skills, all the skills at book 1 will give you about everything you will need to grind. You're probably better off nuking than chaining anyway since you're pure INT.

You could consider taking the cold nukes, they don't do as much damage as the lightning nukes, but they could come in handy with their freeze and frostbite effects in pve.

Im not a pro at nuker builds and skills, but this is what I can think of ^_^"

Also check out the guides and tutorials section, there should be quite a few nuker / s/s guides around.

That makes a lot of sense to me
So max light mastery to 53

Main nukes in light & lion shout, and add the ice nuke?

Couldnt you just be pure Light and cold with nothing else? lol
Maybe take the shields in bicheon?

Yanno the sword attacks seemed pretty darn weak at low levels, their prob the same at 53?

Doesnt soound back to me but Im a freakin noob lol

Well it is possible to leave out bicheon skills, even though I wouldn't recommend leaving them all out. I have a lv 33 pure INT spear myself, and so far I only got a few skills on lv 1 from heuksal. The rest is nearly all nuke + lion shout and sometimes ghost spear petal, all combined with max imbue ofcourse.

For s/s it could be nice to get the knockdowns and stabs, as well as the level 73 chain, (but thats for later on in the game). And ofocurse the shield passive.

It can come in handy to cause some stat effects to your opponents, as well as KDing them. This will give you more time to repot your HP while dealing damage in both pvp and pve. For most bicheon skills you will do fine with level 1 books mostly, but you could max out the knockdowns (and you have to to get the last books) to get the best effect.

Hybrids would do well to max out the weapon skills too, since they deal a noticable amount of physical damage too. But that doesn't really apply to you (pure INT).

But if you get the chance, it never hurts to max out the bicheon skill books anyway. Every bit helps dealing extra damage

For now I suggest focusing on your nukes, imbue, lion shout, passives and snowshield.

Wu....

Just say Im fighting 1 party enemy then 2 more jump me, since I'll be pure INT i'll get PWNT right? lol
It can't tank at all?

[Wu]

An INT can't tank very well but can kill regular mobs, champions and giants extremely quick which makes it a very fast leveling build.

With snowshield + being hybrid + SoX defensive parts you could tank (mobs) pretty well, but the heuksal is still not worth giving up all those masteries for

imo

Snowshield + your shield should be enough for fighting your way trough regular mobs most of the time though.

But party mobs, well thats a different story. Tanking is not a word in the INT's dictionairy most of the time ^^ Killing spree is though.

Or you can just screw all that and become a blader!


Haha, s/s nukers are IMO better nukers than spear, although less damage, more defense. I'd say take cold for the phys def buffs.
