I just started silk road and was wondering which character/build I should go. I want to try to avoid glaive since my friend is going glaive. I think nuker looks appealing but was wondering if it is difficult to level at the lower levels since there will be an apparent lack of HP since its all the points are going into intellect. I want a good PVP character by the way. Melee would be preferred but hell if it makes me level faster I'll do bows.

Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks ahead of time =).

well from what i read here for pvp :-

1) blader plus shield is hard to kill but finds it hard to kill

2) glaive does great damage close up but may be hard to level

3) bow is good for damage at a distance but if it is an INT bow nuker it has low hp and has to run from 1) and 2) above.

many players think bow is fast lvling but that is wrong it is fast before lvl 30 but afterwards its one of the slowest ive trained pure str bows to 5X but they arent that good

Well I've decided that I want to be a nuker with Fire main and Light sub. Now I just don't know what weapong to do. But from what i read it doesnt matter in the later levels. So now Bow or Sword. Im thinking sword might be nice since i can take damage and nuke. But low damage annoys me >.>. So is the sword + nuking worth it in the long run. Btw im probably going full int.

maybe a full INT bow will level faster and easier up to lvl 50?

xiufeng - im not sure a sword int nuker is going to do enough damage after all - since in pvp you will die pretty quick in close quarters.. (supposedly)

but ill defer to the many other more experienced peopl eon the forum
