Hi to all.

This is my 1st post

I am building a character, now farming at lvl16.I decided to make an int hybrid with sword/shield and planning to get:

Sword
Fire
Lightning

My question is should i get passive HP with Heuksal or passive defense with Ice or passive Attack rating increase with Pacheon?

Thanks

I wouldnt get any of those buffs.

well i am doing ice over spear. but many people tell me to get spear over ice. and vice versa.


i am doing

lvl 74- sword (cause i don't need ice/light at 70 sicne nothing new after 68 buffs)
lvl 90-fire (cause main imbue)
lvl68-ice (nothing needed after that)
lvl68-lgiht(nothing needed)


currently a lvl 65 hybrid sword, famring more sp. w/e you do, i wouldn't do the pacheon.

Thanks for ur answer...that mean pacheon attack rate wont give any advantage in melee? now i leaning toward passive heuksal HP addition...

hp addition is great, but meh, I'd probably go ice. Reason is, they'll probably make new books of the frost guard once lvl cap is raised, which means ice will end up giving you more defence, if you think you can get that high a lvl.
The pacheon atk rating bonus is a good idea, and it will give you a good advantage, but I'd go ice .

i think all the books are out..not much after cap. and the cap is not even 80 so...and u planed like 90...IMO i would just go for 70 cap...since not much aft er and no pt plannin i bet u 90 wil be in like 5 yrs from now lol.

Hybrid int might want to think to get Spear/Heuskal. There u can get both ice and hp passive. int swd already do a lil lower dmg than a full int swd so u might want to use spear to up ur attack. I wouldnt get attackrating+..i would rather tip in for ice.

Main idea is that you want:
Fire (90-max) - Because this is where you get most of your attack-power from. Although the skills are stuck at 69 you still get more attack power from the mastery itself (1% each time you up it)
Bicheon (68-70) - Just to get all the skills that you'll use in combination with your imbue,
Lightning (68-70) - To get all the buffs.. the +mag atk% and +speed% buffs are a must

This means that you have 300-(90+70+70)=70 points left. Options on where to put it: Pacheon, Heuksel and Cold. Pacheon isn't really a good idea. You get it for the +attack rating, but at higher lvls you can use alchemy for that.

So that leaves 2 options: heuksel and cold.
Heuksel: you won't be able to use the active skills with a sword.. so you'll get it for the passive, which gives 1k hp.
Cold: most of the players are immune to cold at higher lvls, so the main reason to take this is the buff+passive which together give +68 phy defense.

Decide for yourself

thanks...i decided to go with ice for the balance master:)
