1. people only lvl up only 1 lvl for fire because u only need firenukelvl1 to open the 2nd book. Since 2nd book is the strongest nuke in game, they just go with 2nd book fire nuke.
Some lvl up 1 lvl of light because some people dont have the sp to spent it on the skills, so... most of us just have light tree up to lvl32. Therefore we spent a lil sp on opening the light nuke.

2. Not really. IF u r pure int then u dont need mastery weapons. BUT if u using spear it would be good to lvl up to lvl60 the heuksal tree, so u can get the passive.

3. NOT TRUE AT ALL. It is just the way u like to play your char. You like killing faster or you like having more def?.. It is your choice.

Besides another fact to think about:... if u r ss user when u fight a glavie, he will have more cahnces of getting crit on u than if u were using spear.

Why? .... its hard to explain but if u dont get it... just pm me.

my 2 cents.

Considering you can have critical on shields (lowers chance of crit) Pipigrande doesn't know what they're talking about there.

first dont assume something that u dont know.

@lance and reformat. When u use ss your dmg will be less than spear, therefore u will hit more times with sword BUT also get hitted more times.

SO, if u fight for more time, that meansu get more hits over that time, and therefore u have greated possibilities of getting crit, regardless of the crit on shields. Let say the glavie hit u 6 times in whih 2 r crits when using spear; so now let say u use ss and get hit 12 times, that means approximately 4 crits.

Now, u guys know what i mean?

lightning: lvl up both nukes
Fire lvl first book lv 1 and max book 2 and 3. You can also add a little at fire nuke book 1 to kill faster, but basicly it's a waste of sp.

You NEED a weapon tree. Some idiots take heuksal and shield. ( lv 70 and at 260/300 ) Which is stupid, cuz if you have the time to farm a char that well I guess u wanna be 90 too, or 100++ for that matter. Sp u've ..... up ur masteries then.

A sword shield nuker is the best imo. Knockdown can be very cool and pretty strong ( 5k+ for a kd ) also you can block which is great. Extra phys def etc etc. Spear does more damage, but you must take all the damage that's thrown at you. Also u get more hp, but I think 0 defense is a high cost of hp.

heres what mines at:

i got fire at lv 57, maxed book 1&2 of fire and almost maxed book 3. The aoe and penetration are useful. For lightning i have first book maxed, no where nearn as good as fire.

Leveling weapon skills is not really needed imo, i kill mobs with just nukes.
Sword probably can be better if your just using nukes because it will block enemys crits (hopefully :P). Im considering changing to s/s because of that reason.

compare those 2 and I know for sure that the lit nuke is alot stronger..

As for me I'm using lit and fire and I have 1st book fire on lvl 2 and lit nuke at lvl 4. I leave the 1st fire nuke at that lvl and go for the 2nd..

My weapon mastery is now at low lvl but I will up dat later on =)

It is your choice if you want to use sword/shield or spear... (ss got block and knockdown but spear has 1k hp increase at lvl 60 ;)

spear - use if you can kill the mob before it touches you
s+s - use if they hit you 2 or 3 times before they die, and its good for pvp
