Spear skills for Pure INT

Post by XiaoFen »

Ok, I'm farming like a mad man... and then i go to the sp calculator and dream....:shock:

I'm curious how long i'm stuck farming/how much sp i need... then I realize I don't know... :cry:

Regarding the spear skills... since a nuker is doing magic damage what is the point of advancing the skills, does it make a difference? the physical stat increases... but am i right to assume that our physical balance is so low that this is not a very noticeable increase and that only the one point is really required for the effect and thus i can save farming some sp? :?

Yes, get these heuksal skills:

-soul spear series - stun
-ghost spear series - knockback, quick burst of damage
-passive - extra HP

Although you may think theyre weak, your imbue damage 'masks' over them, and thus does quite high damage.

I don't know if anyone can back me up on this, but assuming they have similar gear, I think that a ghost spear imbued from an int player would do more damage than a ghost spear imbued from a str player, but this is just speculation based off previous experiences.

That isn't my question at all...

I know what skills to get, i'm talking about the purpose of excelling these skills... in terms of necessity of farm at lvl 16...

is the difference between a lvl 1 and X ghost spear book1 that noticeable for a pure int since we are only really concerned about hitting with our nukes....

My real question underlying here is, can i get away with farming 100k at 16 and lvling and farming again at 60....

no idea what you're getting at here

yes, there is a difference between ghost spear petal book1 and ghost spear petal book9. The damage increases, although small and you want other skills other than nukes to cancel/kd/kb/stun, which you asked of in the first post, and i answered clearly

My real question underlying here is, can i get away with farming 100k at 16 and lvling and farming again at 60....

that has no relation to this question at all. You never wrote that on the first post. Numbers and calculations will tell you that, not me, because i have no idea what skills you would take, etc. You should be right with 100k till the high fifties/low sixties.

Ok, let me rephrase this again...

some people are fully farming at 16 for 200k+

(I'm thinking about farming 100k or so instead and farm the rest at 60, but I have a question!)

The real question part is not about which skills and why necessarily... ONLY about the amount of difference between taking just lvl 1 each skill of spear versus maxing them (since the basic effect is there from lvl1).

Is the amount of damage from maxed spear skills THAT MUCH different on a pure int, that I should be so concerned as to plan for it while farming... or can i get away with lvl1 skills and farm it later?

yes the dmg is that big and you need to (for example) book 1 from soul spear series to unlock book 2, and max book 2 to unlock book 3. same for ghost spear
