fire and light nukes okey, but ice?

Post by br0ken »

I'm making a nuker, but I'm already getting the fire and lightening nukes and I was wondering. Would investing into Ice nukes be a good idea?

Probably not the first book (only lv1 to open the next), but I was wondering if getting the next one would be a good idea?

Ice DOES less damage than fire and lightening nukes but I just still wonder. Is it a good idea to get the ice nuke when I'm already getting the lightening and fire ones?

thank you

Second book is better, first is weaker and that status can be pill'ed easily.

The second book does less dmg, but has a great AoE, but so does the other nukes.

o okey. I was planning on maxing the second lightening book along side the second and third books for fire nukes (which do most damage according to http://sro.mmosite.com/database/skills/fire.shtml)

okey I'm gettin ice nuke then. I had already noticed that with my build I would be missing one slot for something ~.~

I was thinking of inserting the second book for soul depart series, but nuke should be better.

PS: DOES IT TAKE LONG FOR THE NUKE TO RECHARGE? Like before you use the same nuke again ^^;?

Most people when they get the second or third book of the same nuke use both of them, and concentrate mainly on one tree. Sure tis nto as effective but it will save you a HELL a lot of SP.

Maybe so.

But, the aoe of the second book and up (of all nukes btw) is great. And the freeze effect still applies in pve. In my opinion ice has not become completely useless due to new alchemy. Life has just become a bit harder for ice users.
