Pure INT S/S Build.

[Rakion]

I have 3 Categories:

1st:
90-Bich
90-Light
90-Cold
30-W/E

2nd:
90-Bich
90-FIre
60-Light
60-Cold

3rd:
90-Fire
90-Light
90-Cold
30-Bich

My Plan is the 2nd Category, but i have a feeling that the 1st category is very successful and its a very good build for 100 cap since I only got 3 masteries to take care of. On the Other hand Fire got the Best Imbue to offer and Nukers really rely on their imbue for their nukes(I've heard that nukers get 80% of their Nukes dmg on Imbue?! or maybe higher). The 3rd Category isnt my style, but its worth the space... having all maxed buffs being a pure nuker is like a Buck-up for main tankers.

But i want a build thats good on PVP, PVE and grinding.

I'm asking everyone to put some of your PROS & CONS on what build you think is better. i would really appreciate it if you can wright it neatly and w/o flames.

This will not only benefit me in in the fore coming future. It may also help some undecided people out there.

Well personally I wouldn't like choice two you wouldn't have a powerful snow sheild and even less physical defense. The defense from 90 ice is crucial and actually ALOT of physical defense.

My two options for this build would be:

1st:
90-Bich
90-Light
90-Cold
30-Fire

2nd:
90-Bich
90-Fire
90-Cold
30-Light

Quick explanation for the 2nd choice:

Who needs the extra magical damage off lightning nukes when fire nukes are as strong as those light nukes without the extra damage, plus you'd get immunity and alot more magical defense. 2nd choice would be the one I'd make.

You're loosing too much with 30 lit. I see alot of char that are 90/90/60/60 and it works for them. I wouldn't go pure nuker unless you only do PvE because I don't think you'll really kill something with only nukes hehe.

My bet is 90bich/lit/ice, 30 fire which is a standard build, but the best for pure int IMO

[AznFury]

option 1 = pure int s/s common build

option 2 = hybrid int spear common build (except with 90 heuk)

option 3 = my build dual wield (except force 30 for plvling)

[meluto]

I have a different idea about building a Pure Int sword/shield Chinese character, actually my build:

40 bicheon: for the 40% power increase, castle shield and 5% blocking ratio

90 fire: for the imbue, nuke, protection against magic and alterated states, stealth and invisible detection.

90 light: for the magical damage increase, speed, lion shout for finishing, more parry, dodge, and second nuke (not as powerful but usable against 3 foes at the same time).

80 cold: for the added physical defense and shield up to 50% absorption at 80 lvl

My guess when is fully farmed (now at lvl 51 and 65K sp done) is this is going to be good against any PvE and decent PvP

I'd like to read your comments

Happy New Year

only bicheon 90 is worth getting. kd and lightning chain.

[willieb3]

and stab and 15 second buffs and bicheon force

[jyushinshuu]

go for fire/light/cold FTW.
the most successful build for pure int pure force in 100cap, trust me. i'm playing at cSRO which is at 100cap atm. you will not regret it cuz fire has the most dmg in imbue and nukes + immunity and mag def buff.

What do u mean support? it has better tanking ability than bich/light/cold. only 1/10 ppl in our server that has weapon/light/cold for pure int at 100cap.

Heres my build that i'm useing

90 Fire/85 Light/74 Cold/51 Bicheon

I like this build cause I have fire as my main imbune so i get to max out Soul force fire and I get some of my favorite nukes . At 85 Light I have Maxed Grass Walk - Speed and good nukes. At lvl 74 Cold I get a decent lvl for my secondary imbune, Phys. def. buff, Ice wall, and nukes. Finally at lvl 51 Bicheon I have the Heaven/Assention Chain( i wan't it cause it looks cool), lvl 5 for the passive skill, and KD and stab.

Tats why I like this build .

[Sauron]

you can always do the 90 fire/90bich/72ice/48lightning and go hybrid

[Nitro]

What do u mean support? it has better tanking ability than bich/light/cold. only 1/10 ppl in our server that has weapon/light/cold for pure int at 100cap.

Why would something with only increased magical defense (what you dont need, since youre Int) would be better tanker than something that has huge emergency physical defense increase (thats what you need), better blocking ratio, and knockdowns?

90 Fire/85 Light/74 Cold/51 Bicheon
Finally at lvl 51 Bicheon I have the Heaven/Assention Chain( i wan't it cause it looks cool), lvl 5 for the passive skill, and KD and stab.

Tats why I like this build .

51 bicheon at 90 cap is completely useless because skills will do weak damage, the passive will be a very little tiny bit useful; knock down will very very rarely work (cause it'll be at most lvl 51). Instead go 90fire/90light/90ice.

Either you pretty much max a weapon trees, or you do not take it, otherwise it'll be pretty much useless, and will only be wasting your mastery levels.

[meluto]

I'm pretty much convinced with the arguments, so I bought some few points to reallocate my character skills, reducing the fire forces to 30, leaving only the buffs and increasing the bicheon forces, like knock down and stab, and I've found a very good boost in damage.

So, 30 fire, 90 light, 90 cold, and 90 bicheon is the best way for me.

As I see it:

Pros:
- Light: great buffs (magical damage increase, parry ratio and speed), great imbue and nuke with transfer to adjacent foes
- Cold: Amazing defense.
- Bicheon: increased force, best 15 secs defense ever, and stab to finalize is funny as hell
- Fire: some defense against elements

Cons:
- Light: no the most destructive imbue, fire is better.
- Cold: few others options beside the defense, maybe a secondary attack can be used.
- Bicheon: no good options beside kd and stab, mostly because Pure INT configuration.
- Fire: defense against elements and alterated states must be completed with the right blues in the accessories.

why do i think the light nukes are stronger....becuz they are and light being so low, ur mag enhance buff not gonna even make much of a sense and ur gonna be slow and parry ratio gonna be low, u might be strong but not as strong as the two builds ive seen worked

1)
90 - fire
90 - light
60 - bich
60 - ice

2)

90 - light
90 - ice
90 - bich
30 - ????

[raphaell666]

1)
90 - fire
90 - light
60 - bich
60 - ice

Don't know if you read my reply, but it works for that too (I did some minor fixes according to your reply):

60 bicheon at 90 cap is completely useless because skills will do weak damage, the passive will be a very little tiny bit useful; knock down will very very rarely work (cause it'll be at most lvl 60). Instead go 90fire/90light/90ice.

Either you pretty much max a weapon trees, or you do not take it, otherwise it'll be pretty much useless, and will only be wasting your mastery levels.

90 Bicheon
90 Light
90 cold



Bicheon needed... for s/s shield
Light...speed (77% increase !!1), good nuke (hmm slightly weaker than fire but still GREAT damage carrier), parry (Need this as a pure int), magic attk increase buff (16% increase!!!)
Cold...Phy.D(132 increase!!!), Intesify Snow Shield(55%!!!at cap i think), your second nuke (pretty weak but useful because of frozenbite and frozeneffects)

No Fire for pure int s/s shield ...even though it is the strongest nuke of all...
because.. other then that.. Fire do not have very useful skill for pure int...IMO
