Just to clear things, if you wanted to be a blader using a blade and bicheon skills (and having more str than int points), you cannot nuke hard enough for it to be useful. If you meant an int nuker (more int than str points) then the weapon of choice would be a sword and shield.

Now, if you are a sword and shield nuker, 1 str : 2 int at every level, would render your nukes too weak to be of much use. They dont hit high enough as nuke damage depends on you having alot of int points. 1:7 is probably the hybrid cut off for a sword shield nuker to be able to use nukes effectively. Even so that cut off is just an empirical estimate (trial and error, and player feedback). If you want to nuke hard using sword and shield, go pure int.

A bit about 1:2 hybrids: these hybrids would usually use a spear (or bow for the clinically mad or bored xD). Only a sosun 64+5 sword, + full int on equips, would enable a 1:2 s/s nuker to kill someone (of equivalent lvl and equips) at the current cap, and thats with sword skills (bicheon). 1:2 hybrids would use alot of weapon skills, so consider taking them and maxing them out.

So back in your case, if:
1. you like to keep the hybrid 1:2 ratio, consider going spear instead.
2. you decide you like the blade so much (yes they are cool :) ), then consider going pure str, and taking bicheon and fire max, the rest is up to you.
3. you want to be a sword shield nuker, go pure int (the masteries are flexible: max out fire or light or both, but also take some ice at 60 or max, with or without bicheon skills)
4. or 1:7 hybrid s/s (masteries: light or fire max or both, with a bit of ice, but must at least level up bicheon or max it as they would help you alot).

A 1:2 hybird is like; 1 point in str, 2 points in INT. A 1:7 is then 1 point in str and 7 in int. Mostly it's like this STR:INT.

you cant add a sos or som its a drop and 1:2 hybrid is when you lvl up you add 1 to str 2 to int and for 1:7 its like
1lvl 3 int
2lvl 3 int
3lvl 2 int 1 str and so forth for every 1 str there should be 7 int
