Warlock/Cleric - Pure Int or Hybrid?

Post by Puma60 »

Right now I am level 60 pure int Warlock/Cleric. Should I go partly hybrid or stay pure int? If you think I should go hybrid, please say how much str. I was thinking, I have a 9D sun warlock rod so if I do loose any damage by adding str, it wouldn't make much of a difference because the sun would compensate for it.

Thanks :)

Euro weapons are different from chinese ones. Chinese weapons give both physical and magical damage, euro weapons only physical or magical damage. I think that it's better to stick to a full int or str build according to the euro weapon you want to use to kill an opponent. But I never tried a euro hybrid myself my answer is more based on the general game knowledge. I hope that someone with a hybrid build will answer your question better. Right now you have a 9d sun in your possession but it will be worthless when 10d will come out.

Taelys is right about euro builds..usually its either PURE int or PURE str. but in your case...since you have a sun rod..and good robes (im assuming). a slight hybrid wont matter.

i'd say put like 20? str points ...but i never made a hybrid lock..so, i'll have someone else answer lol.

Your sun advantage will probably be lost in a couple of months when d10 comes out.

Depends on your role. I put in 15 str points on my cleric - I thought it would be good for survivability. In a support role, it does indeed help, I have higher HP than other INT's. But I hit lower because of it, whether bard or cleric.

I lose about 250-500 damage because of it. I think some of it is made up by the pluses and the mag reinforce on my weapons, but am not sure.

Depends on what you want. Do you want a bit of extra damage or ability to take an extra hit? Some people find value in either option. Personally, hybrids are easier to play because adding extra str can be very forgiving in pvp when you get attacked without warning.
