Choosing the right Spear build

[Choseoloiays]

Hi I want to start a new character. For the skills i have chosen : 100 heuskal/lightning/cold.

BUT for the build i have no clue...

I have done some calculations on the character builder and these are the resuslts ive gotten.

Pure INT = MP 29546/HP 9530 - Mag balance 97%/Phys balance 51%

1:9 INT = MP 28836/HP 10240 - Mag balance 94%/Phys Balance 53%

1:5 INT = MP 25995/HP 13081 - Mag balance 85%/Phys Balance 59%

This is my results from using http://bobtheveg.dyndns.org/SRO/Char_Bu ... file=39812.

Pure INT - 1:9 INT - 710HP no difference for me...
1:9 INT - 1:5 INT - 2841HP Armour and gear could probably add to that.

Now the damage difference i have no idea, but if anyone could give me an idea about it, i could choose my build much easier.

Videos ive seen of the different builds are

Hybrid 1:5 INT

Hybrid 1:7 INT

How comes MMO_Doug isnt using armour ? i would guess that a full INT would be wearing armour...
And also his HP is surprisingly high

Of course theres level,build,gear and skill differences, but ive gotta say the 1:7 does it really well in Pvp damage wise and tanking wise imo.

100 heuskal/lightning/cold, if I were you, I'll be pure int. A pure int spear is a very good char imo, if you know how to use of course.
If you wanna make a hybrid, I choice 1:5 or 1:7, and maybe you should take fire instead lightning

I would consider 70:70. I think Baratox did a guide for the build for 90 Cap under Guides and Tutorials section.

Well ive been thinking a bit and i kindy want to try a hybrid 1:7, but i dont know how my damage would be compared to a pure int. Would i still 1 hit mobs in PvE?

people say garment is overpowered, i never tested it myself to see the differences really. but a lot of people seem to believe. also you will hardly see anyone in armor. if anything they will wear protector. he could have full blue set that would increase his str and hp.

Pure int Heuk/Fire/Cold. Get the max def you can get, stronger nukes, immunity. No speed true but that can be solved.

if its still the same lightning nukes have a higher end dmg but also lower end too
fire is more consistent but light can do more damage. and also with the light buffs it typically does more damage. so its fire if you want more defensive skills and light for offensive skills.

Absolutely not... stay with the light imbue unless you are a a STR hybrid. and wear protector... Id recommend pure int or the 1:7 hybrid, those are pretty solid builds. =)

are the fire and light nukes almost the same or way different at 100 because i want to farm this build but idk if to take heuksal 100 fire 100 ice 100 or heuksal 100 light 100 fire 100 what would be better for pvp

idk i quit at 90 cap
but JUST nukes i think fire is stronger
but dont forget that mag dmg inc from lightning tree

[cooleddie]

yea and is the defense that fire gives you worth not taking lightning

[very intelligent]

If you make 7:1-9:1 hybrid then 100 heuk/light/cold is for you.But i suggest you to make between 2:1-5:1 with 100heuk/fire and mixed light and cold. I have a 3:1 and i really like it.

[Fimero]

if your an heavy in you will need cold for snowsheild
so figure out how much of an int you are
so you know how dependent you will be on snowsheild
