Need help on build decision

Post by Sharp324 »

Ok well im currently a lvl 42 int 2:1 hybrid but noticing i get 1 hit by nukers my lvl and 1-2 hit by a pure str. I feel really weak at my lvl. Started a new char to farm at 16, was wondering if its normal to be so weak at 42. Been thinking about going pure str glavie. Really confused on this right now so any info will be greatly appreciated. I need to figure this out soon before i start farming. Im sry if i left any info out...kinda tired.

my current is a 2:1 INT hybrid. Im starting a new char to farm with but not sure if i should go with that 2:1 again or do a pure STR glavie. Like i said it seems im just a open target to both pure str and int. My mag balance is about 87% i believe and phy is about 72%.

at lvl 42 im afraid thats how it goes :\

U dont have much HP at 42 if yr INT or hybrid INT.

Fights at 42 last one or two hits unless its STR vs STR.

id stick with the 42 and get a good spear.

whats your skilltrees?

and if you do want to farm.. then id go pure int s/s ice light. idk, pure str
glavie seems to be a nice build and works well and stuff.. but the more i
read about them, the more i get the feeling that ppl dont really enjoy
playing them on high level. lots of people complain about the pvp being
just spamming 2 skills..

Well either way im going to farm at 16 in the stronghold. But cant really decide between the 2:1 hybrid or pure str. I love my build for PvE. Also im a healer so if i go 2:1 int it will be spear/light/force (what my current build is). Really what im wondering will i always die this easily?

Basicly if i went pure str i would still only have heuksal/light/force. Would that be enough for one?

if you gonna be a healer, DON'T EXPECT to own even if you are full farmed, i saw a pure str bower at lv 44 almost 1 hitting by a nuker, becease his fire was just lv 22, so being pure str without fire is really really weak

and for an 1:2 int hybrid, you won't be good eitther i think, hybrids need more than 2 offensive tree's,

If you don't wanna die make a blader. I saw a blader in garms around 7x tanking 3 nukers of the same lvl like it was nothing.

Bladers + x large pots + 90% autopot = invincible.

I dont want die so easy but also be able to make decent damage. How are glavies for damage and survivability?

Also...ill only have 3 trees heuksal/light/force. So would i be better off with the int build? Since the buffs affect mag dmg.

at 42-50 you will usually die to ints as a hybrid this is your weak lvls and it happens to everyone, but once you hit 7th degree you reach your full potential and they can't hurt you anymore

if you want to be a healer, i suggest pure str, becease a healer can't heal if he's death right?? i would take heuksal (since you don't want to be a blader) fire, ligtnig, force

heuksal maxed
force maxed
fire high
ligtning low

if you won't take fire, you're going to be a breakfast for a nuker, and like i said, you can't heal when your death

if you won't take fire, you're going to be a breakfast for a nuker, and like i said, you can't heal when your death

Full STR bladers FTW! I can tank 3-4 glaviers of my lvl or lower while their attacking me LOL! But i'm moving constantly then :P

2:1 = Not enough hp to survive against str and not engough mag bal to survive against nuker.

All in all hybrid sucks.

Ah and btw with full sosun gear and weapon youll pwn every1. (thats the way a hybrid works)

e: Not enough dmg to kill str.

Watch some vids on youtube fighting euro chars vs. chines chars. Thats the best proof that hybrids wont work when euro comes out.

Int is better dmg dealer and Str is the better tank.

Int hybrid? Will be a 1 hit like a pure int and deals less dmg. (Perhaps not even enough to kill a int on his lvl with 1 hit)...

im sorry but that doesn't even make any since from what i've seen pure int and pure str can't kill a euro character either so it doesn't matter

Well either way i dont think it would be wise to take fire due to higher cap i will be screwed with mastery lvls. So bascily all im asking is with those skills which would sound more plausible pure str galvie or 2:1 INT

i dont like job and guild wars i only do 1vs1 pvp so this does not apply to me

and if you are referring to grinding that does not apply to me either since chinese will still grind alone

btw i do not support euro hybrid characters because they can only do one type of attack (all phy or all magic) because they dont have an imbue
