aezo=actually it depends on u. pvp purposes not really needed except for parry/atk reduce skill. For pve purposes helps but u will have to use mp pots more to heal. mostly ppl who use force is just for res, harmony circle, parry/atk reduce.

venomas: you need to use a shield to cast it after that u can remove it back without removing the buff.

im a blader too and also sp faming, i use a bow from lvl 1-13 and don't hav a hard time doing my quest and also killing thos tigers, untill i found a good blade i'm currently lvl 14 and using that blade w/ a shield, and i think my blader is a tank even w/o skills (my current sp is 800+), now i can kill a mob of tigers(3-6) they only dmge me 6-16 dmge per tiger,i can kill them w/ 6 hits or less per tiger, i suggest you also find a good blade and high def equips and you'll feel how to be a good blader :)

I farmed about 5k sp at level 16 before I got bored and closed the gap up a bit. I farmed another 5 or 6k in the 20s. After that I've been going with a gap for awhile. I got to about 13k sp in the 40s and since that I've been going with a 5 level gap. If you want, you can farm a ton in the beginning and go with a 0-2 level gap. You can farm some (still a lot) and go with a 2-3 level gap. Or you can farm a litte or not at all and go with a 5-6 level gap. All up to you. Also, I encourage you to decide for yourself what skills to get. Get the one you like, but I also recommend you try as many skills as possible to see how well they work.

What is this "level gap"?

I'm lvl 42 light blade on Greece. Bicheon 42, light 34, fire 34. My guild is one of the strongest legit guilds on the server. So should should I farm at 52 to keep a lead above the other guilds or start now at 4x? And if 4x or 5x what should I farm on?

I would like to ask a ques..since before a blader attacks, imbue will be initiate first right? Then all the combos and so on is consider as magical attacks or physical attacks? Hope someone can make things clear for me.. Thx

I've never had a problem killing anything. If it's a tough opponent or I aggro more than one enemy I use my Imbue, otherwise I don't. I use a lot of potions, but I end up making money anyway by selling all the random junk I loot to an NPC.

Here's my standard combo against a tough opponent in PvE. I am 17 right now.

1. Imbue - Magic
2. The ranged attack (forget the name) - Phys?
3. Illusion Chain - Phys
4. Smash - Phys
5. Smash - Phys

Repeat 3-5, refreshing Imbue whenever it's ready.

I think the Imbue damage and the physical skill damage are separate and defended against separately. Right?

I don't understand the significance of level gaps. Why do people choose higher gaps?

90 Bicheon
81 Fire
69 Light
60 Ice (can delevel this if needed since the buff and passive loses importance with higher level gear since the % of def it adds becomes less and less).

OK i just want to ask a quick question. Do you think that having BOTH chains maxed is especially useful in either PvE or PvP? ive just about decided what i want but i dont know if it would be useful to have billow and blood chain as a combo. Do you find it very useful? Thanks.
