Couple Full int spear questions (Armor/Battle Tactics

Post by Senjai »

Currently im running a Full int spear (or hybrid if ou count some pts i put in sta early on), at level 21 im currently wearing protecter, but should i switch to garment especially with the Taoists and Earth ghosts ill be facing?


Another thing is im going nuker, does that mean i wont be using my spear skills or shouldnt be using them in pvp (Spear aoe's Dancing Demon etc...)

once u put a stat on str, u're no longer pure :D

garms are good against mag dmg, meaning taoists, but not earth ghosts, earth ghosts deal phy dmg. im pur int s/s (but using bow right now :D ) and i don't have any problems with fighting taoists using prot, so my suggestion is to use prot since u'll need additional phy def, being pure int (or int heavy build) means u have high mag def naked.

at lvl 21, u'll be facing off chakgis, hyungyo (spelling :? ), horses & earth ghosts, all of these deal phy dmg, so go armor or prot.

at pvp (1v1), u will still be using wep skills as nukes take a long time to do. so must likely u'll be nuke+soul spear + ghost spear + lion shout = dead (hopefully). u'll really a lot on soul spear and ghost spear for stun/knockback effect.

being a nuker, u won't need aoe wep skills, u can get fire nuke book 2 & light nukes with splash dmg.

just to clarify - pretty sure not true, all your int won't take effect (or much effect) unless your wearing some kind of gear. (cuz its int * reinforce% supposedly)

I prefere garment pve for anything~ 20% mana savings will help pay for watever extra hp pots you will use, then +20% movespeed is your deal breaker ^^ then to top it off, nukers after 30 can nuke-shout mobs and dont use hp pots at all~

a nuker can live without weapon skills, its just "better" if you take advantage of having the stun / kb / hp passive (or swordie stuff if you ever switch)~

thanks for all the detailed responses, i was asking about the aoe spear efffects like dancing demon because scince level 19 i could round up 3 - 6 white tigers pop my light imbue and own them all. Lots of fun, i think thats prob for a str oriented glavie though, i might make one not sure if i want me full str fire glavie, or lit blade....

So after 30 i should use garment for the 20% mana savings? as my nukes will demolish people by themselves, i was told you could one hit whies or close to it, use lion shout o finish em off, and light pink things in two...

i think my int% is 86% in balence, i have like 1400 mp, and 750 HP (Rounded values of course)

@psy, tnx for the clarification. i would agree with nukers being able to live without wep skills on pve, but for pvp, i doubt that is possible (just my thoughts :D ).

@Senjai, yes, i would go to garments after 30, but until then, u'll be relying on ur weapon skills, so i suggest u stay prot/armor. but u'll still use prot/armor for pvp even after 30 coz u need to compensate ur weakness, low hp & low phy def.

as for int spear or str glavie, its all a matter of preference, str glavies are stronger at pvp but int spear are stronger on pve. str glavies don't really as much on gears as compared to int spear coz of massive hp. lastly, int spear needs a lot of sp :D

on balance, i think for int spear, u should be ok if ur mag balance is between 85-90 (naked). for glavie, so pur str.
