well instead of being a jerk and laughing at my question, maybe you can tell me what imbue would be best to use.....if not don't post

Fire is strongest imbue. Ice has the best effect. Up to you on which imbue to take.

Fire.

I'd choose fire or lightning imbue, ice just sucks at higher levels cause everyone'll be immune to freeze and such. ;x
Lightning has a bit more mag. attack, but it's more unstable than fire.
Fire's got a bit less mag. attack than lightning, but you'll get closer/consistent damage.

OK thanks everyone for your opinions.

fire is good...

i like using my ice nuke + fire imbue and giving freeze/frostbite with a burn

Lvl up fire and ice, if they arnt immune then use ice, not that it matters to much with your build since ice is best used with skills that hit fast, like chains or arrow combo's, I dont think it would be very efficant for pure nuker to use, but its worth getting anyway.

Actually it's amazing how many ppl at higher lvl aren't immune to high lvl cold imbue. So i'd go for cold/fire imbues.

I agree, most people aren't rich enough to afford good gear with blues, especially when most people underestimate the effectiveness of accessories. Ice imbue works great for PvE and its also wonderful against most euros; stop those powerful attacks with a little freeze. Fire imbue will do about 527 damage every second when it is maxed out. And Lightning imbue will reduce the opponents parry ratio (by half I think). If I'm right then it's a lot, and will increase your damage considerably, good for hard hitting attacks, like nukes.

OK so get ice imbue for some PvP/PvE and get fire imbue for pure ownage lol?

Oh gosh.

yes. imbue increases dmg, for all chinese builds.

imo fire is the best for pvp

you can also add ice or ligth for jobs or pwlv

because every one was immune no one picked ice, because no one picks ice why go thru the effort of being immune?

Buy i personally like lightning more, at least for grinding cause it splashes which means faster grinding

Ice is better vs everyone that doesn't have Holy Word /FireShield

Hey you guys all talking about pvp and stuff, but aint light better for pve?

He would have a wide range of aoe skills anyway, I dont think that he would need the light imbue in additon to the light nukes, 2nd & 3rd fire nuke books and 2nd ice books.

you guys are making it hard to choose lol i already have light imbue 1st book maxed and lvl 3 second book i think. So to make this easier what other imbue should i take? or should i delvl light imbue and go for fire and ice?

Sigh here we go:

Fire-> Burns your opponent, looks kool at later lvls. Soul is like clear purple pink ish fire, and the last one is red fire as usual but with 2 meteors.

Light-> Reduces Parry, is blue at dragon and really blue (like euro light) at final.

Ice-> Light blue, freeze/frostbites best imo with fast attacks, final is blue cloudy looking with 2 ice crystals.

Summary:

Fire can burn = poison kind of, if they dont' have pills or is just fun messing with ppl making them lose hp slowly

Light reduces parry, with my lvl 5 thunderdragon, i go from hitting like 6k-8k when they get parry reduce

Ice... yeah... it freezes....

IMO:
It's true that alot of ppl are not immune, that is also true of low lvl ppl. I'm 74 and i'm fully immune to every status effect cept those that require puri pills. You only need the first fire shield book, like lvl 2x or so to be fully immune. I would just pick whichever you like to play with... as a china character you're going to here the imbue noises alot each time you attack. Do you like the boom noise of fire, bzap noise of light, or the psh-ice crashing noise. The attacks won't matter much. For a nuker, since your attacks take long to hit, i'd say use either light or fire imbue. Whichever you like better.

go with fire - ur build is a full force nuker. pvp is not for you with this build

Yea i know, I'm going to be a Unique mob hunter and help in party's. PvP's i don't think i will ever be good at even if i had a good PvP build.

take fire imbue. max damage.
