Xioni · Post by **Xioni** » Sat Sep 29, 2007 10:35 pm

Well i have a naked char lvl 27 with 24K SP...
I didnt put any stats points ... i only raised heuksal to 27
So the big question is... what build ?
First of all im going to take only 2 (!) Skilltrees... heuksal + something else..
I cant decide between light or ice ... also not between full str or hybrid spear
Im going to use garment !
So pls any advice, opinions or tips

1. Ice or Light ?
2. Full str, 2:1 int hybrid spear, 5:1 int hybrid spear, 70:70 hybrid spear

I Won't go for 3 skilltrees

Pls help me out SRF'ler

Thx

I'm not going to help you choose build, its all about personal preferences.
If you just want to be "best", then you should choose glaive I guess. Personally I enjoyed playing as a slightly s/s int hybrid. I had both good hp and good magical defense. I've also played as a int spear hybrid, and it was quite fun too. If you are going to choose two threes, you should choose light. Apart from mana shield and some defense buffs, ice doesn't have any helpful skills. Unless you can afford buying speed increase scrolls for grinding or pvp purpose, you really should choose light. Plus lightning imbue also has higher damage. Good luck

I'd take full str glavie heuskal/fire it's probably the best PvP and job build and you can always switch to bow/blade if you don't like it. If you go hybrid with spear then your pretty much stuck with it imo.

Maybe you can raise light to 30 or something just for a little grasswalk speed, it cost very little sp and will benefit your grinding.

I think that if you plan just 2 tree the best option is weapon+light and if you want to use garment without other protections (without fire and cold) you should be pure str glavie. Thats the best I can imagine with just 2 trees but I dont think you will do it good on pvp.

PS: You can go with pure int spear+light to have the faster leveling and faster dying on pvp build.

Pure str glavie is probably best PvP build, better then all hybrids imo. Fire is a must for all pure str, phy damage increase, strongest imbue, magical defense. Ice is more of a nuker tree...

Glaive > Bow [Pure str]

I would say you go 70:70

2:1 spear is good with light or ice. Any trees will do, pick your choice.
Light got movement speed and ice give u mana shield, so it will all come down to your choice. Best of luck my friend..

Worst thing is ice = no speed

I prefer ice cause ice has the forst nova skill + snow shield

amazing funny löl
but no speed ? uhm... that is disappointing
