i started this char back in the 70 cap and then quit somewhere are level 40 and then restarted again during the 100 cap then quit for a short time and now restarting him now. I'm level 72 int hybrid the exact int:str ratio i have no idea any more over the times of me quitting he got a bit messed up so my first question is what is a good int:str ratio there is no way i can go str hybrid but i can make a solid int hybrid. My skills are Bich/Cold/Lit. i use the character for everything from grinding/pvp/trading/unique hunting. so he is an all around char and i like his skills where they are but if needed i will do the heart quest to replace them.

Make sure your char is totally naked. No weps/gear/accessory/avatar suits/GDF's etc. Then hit C and give us your str/int (make sure to remove the 3 or 10 str/int from the prem if you got one. We can figure out your balance then and how you should lvl up.

Most common build is 1:7/8/9 str:int builds, I guess you could go like 7 seeing you got the Light mastery.

You start off with 20 of both at lvl 1, you're now 72, which means you've got 91 just with leveling.

So you added:
26 str
187 int

Which is about 7:1 if I'm right.

Total of 213 stat points, divided by 26 (so you will get the amount of int for every str point) gives 8.19 so it's about a 1:8 build atm.

I'd go 1:7 or 1:8 and get a 110 Bich/Light, 90 Ice, 20 Fire build.

Correct me if I am wrong but as far as I know it is better to use spear if you are hybrid int? You already have pretty high HP so u don't need a shield that much and spear has higher phy att pwr so you can hit higher to your opponents.

Yeah but the mag dmg will be lower and that is still the main dmg form for a 1:7-9 hybrid int. With bicheon you get stats (bleed/division) which will increase the damage. If he was going to be a 1:5 or something then yes, he'd be better off with spear.

ok so make a 1:8 str:int build and then why would i put 20 into fire? just for the buffs? wouldnt it better to have a 110 cold and get higher snow? and how did you get that 8.19 into a 1:8 ratio?

20 Fire for the Fire Shield, then get 20% reduce for every status on every accessory part and you're immune. It's not needed but I hate getting frostbite or burn or what ever so meh.

I did 213/26=8.19 By doing 213/26 you will find out how many int points you spend for every str point. Which is 8.19 and that translate to a 1:8 str:int build

Well being hybrid I doubt you can keep up the ~63% snow you get but no, it's not really needed, it's just goddamn annoying to get your attacks canceled.

Well, the biggest point is your gear and if you have silk items. Having a decent build (read farmed build) is one thing, but you wont get far nowadays with a +3 set and +5 weps.
