I'd rather do it at a higher level then I can have more fun
jobbing and stuff so I get to take breaks. What level are
nachals? and mages? Should I start using s/s for grinding?
I don't like dieing haha and I figure that s/s is much safer.

By the way, snake sword dance and blade force series aren't
very useful to int s/s are they?

Nachal farming was probably the most fun I had grinding in this game, but it was at a time that hardly anyone was high enough to be there and all the strs would die if they tried to get to us. Check if it's crowded in there on your server, if not I'd really recommend farming there. You're invincible in there as int s/s in garms unless you get a nasty zombie (which you can just become zombie immune pretty easily...) It's about the fastest place to farm in game for an int if there's 3 or less people in the fast spawning room. If it's crowded or you want to do higher lvl I'd do antelope for a shot at 9d sosun since that seems to be the place they're dropping the most.

I use sword dance series a lot as well. You can just get lvl 1 of the first 2 books (don't have to lvl the 1st to get the 2nd) They're much stronger then shouts and the 2nd book especially has much better aoe. No point to lvl past 1 cuz the % is what matters most for int, not the phys. dmg.Great for mobs that you can't 1 nuke and way less sp investment then shouts which I always found useless for anything cept killing noob monsters. Blade force isn't as useful, lvl 1 of the first book is ok for an attack, almost as fast as shout and again stronger for hardly any sp.

I always though 1 nuke or if not you just nuke + shout was the best way to grind?
So I may aswell delevel shouts?

Someone please tell me what level Nachals are?

Nachal are 69-70.

1 nuke is probably the best way to grind yah, sometimes you can't tho and sword dance is really good, especially the 2nd book with it's huge aoe. You can't use it with spear tho, so shouts are still useful if you still find yourself using spear sometimes.

Do you think I should change to s/s when I hit 8D?
And sword dance do I just get level one? as the
phys dmg doesn't really change much for ints?
And same deal with soul blade skills?

EDIT: Should I farm nachals at 68 or 72 so I have the newest wep for my level?
I think 72 just 'cause they will die easier and I'll die less. But less exp I
guess. So not to sure. You tell me :)

All skills but the one above passive?

Ive been at mages since level 69, and as soon as i hi 72 i was doing a 9gap farm. Im still at mages, and even considering doing another 9gap farm "last one i farmed 150k sp only" for my 90 cap sp i need.

Though i may go to higher lv mobs for better drops, but mages do drop allot of 9d 76 weps, sox ftw ^^

Well its usfull in situations, I wouldnt bother to max it, but it even at lvl1 as its a fixed % it can give you the edge over a pure force nuker or european int class.
