S/S Help.

[frater]

Hey can anyone give me some info on a S/s, I want one thats really nice for pvp i wanna know the skills what armor type to wear (prot,garm,arm) and around what level it will come nice in pvp in.

Thanks

Basically, a S/S should be, IMO, pure INT, or 90% mag. balance naked. I've seen S&S hybrids, but I've never played one: I was always satisfied with my pure INT.

The three masteries you need to focus on are Lightning, Cold and Bicheon. Fire should be leveled to 30 only.

IMO, PvP becomes fun when you get two knockdown skills and two stab skills. That means level 45. having maxed cold tree means that the build has plenty of added physical defense. Also, having low fire means you don't get to benefit from a high level of fire protection (mag. defense buff from the fire tree). Thus, you'll be wearing garments. Garments are also good to decrease your MP consumption, and you'll be able to use higher books of snow shield with ease.

pure int wearing protector.

play Capture the Flag event.

At higher levels, you lose mag. defense. In protectors, you'll get raped by INT hybrids with maxed fire!

pure int 90 ice light bich 30 fire (for immune)
with max ice buff you can wear garments
You tank like fck with the snow 53%
use ironwall if fighting a str when snow dies.
spam bleed + division bicheon moves and kd like all hell...
At cap, bleed + division + Kd+ 4 stab = dead anyone.

so you dont use any nukes in pvp

Maybe as an opener. If you nuke, you're exposed for three long seconds. However, if you KD, you get the chance to re-pot and also deal damage

[the_wicked]

Nukers dont nuke much in pvp. The imbue alone causes the kd's to hit hard as hell.
Sneak one in when you can, followed by a quick KD.
Most deadly thing for any euro is to be KD'd by a farmed nuker (for warriors/rogues)

Most nukers start pvp nuke/kd/stabs/either lightning chain or flying stone smash/kd/stabs etc.
a nuking nuker is a vulnerable one. For 3 secs you cant interrupt an attack.

then why not just make a pure str blade if you're not going to use your nukes?

You do use your nukes, just sparingly....as the_wicked stated, those 3secs to take to cast your nuke leaves you open, let alone nukes don't interrupt your opponent's movement.

I think go S/s because they have much higer damage then blader..Im pretty sure thats why and its also fast to level up.

I think

heres my lvl 90 s/s build 60 bich 60 ice 90 light 90 fire. light imbue fire nuker still strongest that way u get all the good kd/stab and castle shields. 43% phys absorption with mana shield the ice phys def increase isnt really all that much

Hm...isn't the highest Snow Shield you can get @ 60 only 40% absorption?

anyways, interesting build ya got there....just dunno how you'll do w/ bicheon at 60, though.

Most s/s builds I see nowadays are either 90 Bicheon, Lightning, Cold, 30 Fire
or 90 Fire, 90 Bicheon, 60 Cold, Light
