S/S nuker

[FireBlade]

Ok so i started farming a s/s nuker (been adding all points so far to int) and i was wondering is there a certain lvl that i should add some points to str or should the str and mag. balance be at a certain thing if i want to be good at pvp? Or should i just stay as a pure int s/s nuker? The build im going for is 90bich/light/ice. I was also wondering what should i wear like armor, protector, or garm for either going pure int or at some point adding some str.

I got an 85 s/s with the same build as yours. I am using Garments as my grinding set at roc and got a protectors set for more balanced defense too (though I find the Garment one usually enough vs non-sun's). I got an 8:1 biased towards int build (adding str between 81 to 90).

It's a nice build. Only downside (in all Chinese imo) that it's not Job-specific. It's not amazing in PvE compared to a Euro char (wiz, rogue or warlock for example), not amazing in PvP (compared to a Warrior/Cleric) etc. Though it does fairly well in all, making it quite a balanced build if played right. I enjoy it

if you go full int and garment, you can kill int mobs about 5-6 lvls higher without sustaining much damage.

but all in all i'd say prot is the best since it is more balanced

1:8 is ok too though, since you are taking the weapon skills

so like an 1:8 int hybrid ratio is good i heard something like a 1:12 but idk if it works what do you say?

+1

...or maybe even 1:7

armor till lvl 64, then switch to garment, because many lvl 64+ mobs, cast magical attacks.
stay pure int! since ur s/s you have a shield (try at leats +5!, blocking ratio 17+) and snow shield you'll be able to tank, for 2 minutes.

yes but if i go pure int wont that significantly lower my dmg with my sword skills or not?

No, as long as you attack with imbue casted. In fact, if you are pure int you are going to do more damage, don't matter how you attack, as long as you are with imbue casted.

U will lose immunity at 100cap but apart from tht, it will probably still be good for pvp and pve. Only time will tell tho.
