To spear or not to spear..

Post by Noof »

Hey, I'm just now returning to SRO after taking almost a year long break. I'm coming back to my pure int nuker whom I just got to level 50. Right now he's 48 lightning/48 cold/10 bicheon. I was wondering if I should drop the bicheon and switch to spear. I'm not sure on which is better for PvP now, seeing as how I stopped playing before the 90 cap was released. Any help appreciated. =)
This is silly.

Go with bicheon. s/s is better fir pvp then a spear is.
And your build is already perfect for a bicheon/light/cold build.

Pure int spear is idd not really recommended. But if you go a bit hybrid, I'm sure you'll do fine in pvp. It all comes down to the question, which skills do you like better ;)

Whats 7:1 is that last 20 lvls into str? or last 15 lvls?
and what do you mean "if you know how to play it" isnt it just get bleed on them and nuke and kd until they die combo?

A new question arises...this character is in a full sos armor set, but I've been reading some stuff that says nukers should be using garment now. So..should I switch to garment when I get into the 7th degree levels?

Yes, or only at cap. Any armor is actually good for PvE purposes, just level on the correct monster. But most of the time armor is the most recommended one because most monsters deal physical damage. At cap or at high levels when you feel like pvping more, you should switch to garment.

Not to spear. The extra damage from spear is not worth the defence you loose that you get from S/S.

Yeah,all player share the same skills. How to play them mean how u "react" and ur timing on different situation,not only spamming kd after kd.
