People would suggest some other builds but I would suggest you:

90 cap
Heuksal 90 Fire 90 Cold 68 Light 52

100 cap

Heuksal 100 Fire 100 Cold 100

I don't want to discuss about it. I think having high phy def is more important for a glavier than parry ratio or speed walk. Wearing garments for sure.

Agreed. However, since you have leftover mastery levels, capping your Lightning tree for the extra parry can prove helpful as well. On the other hand, future level caps will provide higher levels of Snow Shield, too, so you may decide on leveling some more Cold.

I would also suggest cold/fire/glavie. Lightning gives parry and speed, but the phy defense and having cold/firewall is good stuff.

ROFL as a full str you cant use snow shield higher than 20% ! Or your mp will drain at every damage so fast that you can't even use your skills to hit your enemy. Talking about pvp though not pve.

Parry ratio: You can compensate parry buff in lightning with higher parry white stats and 100% parry ratio blue stats. And for walking speed you can buy drug of thphoon. There is nothing on the market for you to buy get higher phy def.

So Cold > lightning for str especially for the builds who has no shield!

Hmm, you're right. Forgot about that. Happened to my Glaiver when I got loaded with mobs once.

I'm
90 Huskal
90 Fire
80 Light
20 ice
20 force


Hueskal and fire are obvious, light is for grinding mainly, ice is 20 for snow shield and force is 20 for res when I powerlevel. Obviously you could skip the force entirely and put more into ice but I didn't find anything useful in the next 20 levels of it.

It's true ice has great benefits at higher levels but you won't enjoy the grind without light, especially when you hit higher levels. Typhoon gets really expensive especially since it only lasts 30 minutes and a ticket is 180 minutes. That's 5 typhoons per grind, assuming you do the 300 in one shot. There is no replacement for phantom, at all.

I look at it this way, light raises magical damage by a %, whereas ice raises by a specific value. Eventually the ice becomes useless, whereas the magical damage increase becomes exponentially better. I do notice it a bit while PvPing, and the gain will be a lot more at later caps (assuming you care about that).

I've done fine without ice and I can't imagine grinding without light, so that's why I chose light > ice.
