Parry Rate vs Mag Def

[JuelzSantana]

atm im a full int bow and im farming.

im fire/ice but i want to know if there is a benefit to become light/ice over fire/ice.

will that extra 40 somethin parry rate really make a difference??? i mean i know it works but is it better than raw magic def? also with the 22% str increase whenever i use strong bow or something like that my crit actually does a ton of damage even though im int. i have the strongest imbue, immunity, strongest nukes, and fire wall in case i vs a warrior or something.

but i figure with light i'll have the parry rate, the magical attack increase so my damage will go up over all not just with crits, but my imbue will be weaker, nukes weaker, the only real benefit im seeing is speed and parry rate. and im not even sure parry rate is worth it.

help me out please im not that knowledgeable on chinese chars.

Again, Parry helps against str chars, mag def helps against int chars. There isn't that big of a difference between the two characters. People that say there is a dmg difference are idiots and are comparing fire vs light nukers or comparing diff gear and skill lvls. Fire nukes continue every 2 levels. Light nuke stopped at 106 and start again at 116. So during that time, light is stuck with a 106 nuke. Yet the dmg is still pretty close. Before 106, light hits more. After 106, the dmg is about the same.

Oh, and fire nuker vs light nuker, obviously fire has the advantage with it's buff. Take the two and put them against a warrior and you'll see the true diff in dmg.
