Hybird are pretty good, heavily dependent on lots of gold for nice gear.
KD is nice as well, amazing dmg to str.

If you're already sword, stick to it. I doubt its gonna be gimped at 90 cap.

i take it as u mean hybrid int spears?

here is wat i think.
Gd:
- mor hp than full int
- tanks betters
- more equal phy / balance

bd:
- do less dmg than full builds

u probly do less dmg than a full build but in the high lvl. just get lots of alchemy and u can probly tank np

My guildie just hit 65 (same lvl as me) and he's a int hybrid spear. Previously, in lower lvls, from 45 and on, he was easy to kill, but now, he's hard for me kill (i'm str hybrid). SSS is too good against a bow user, combine that with frost nova and a lucky freeze = the death of me. If I get 2 crits in a row from antidevil, he's dead though. Really, it comes down to who's the luckiest at the moment, it can go either way. It also matters who has first strike. We dueled 2 times before I had to leave and he killed me both times. The last time he stunned me for 4 seconds and froze me. I got him down to 1k at one point before I got frozen, so if I didn't get frozen, he would have been dead from quad shot. Int hybrids are very powerful going up against another nuker, since they can tank a bit more. The key to being a good hybrid is being well farmed, with all the buffs (all buffs mean all the elemental buffs and w/e weapon class buffs you can get). You also need uber gear, which means you need a large amount of gold. Look at the GNGWC USA team. 1 nuker and 1 hybrid 1:1. W/o the hybrid, I don't think they would have won, since he could tank very well. Hybrid classes, in my opinion, are more fun than pure builds.

Im 2:1 hybrid int fire spear

i do good damage all round with my mixed skills and with extra hp i make a nice tanker and kill quickly so when tanking dont use many hp pots
