Hi, i still need advice on my build; my previous build was about me being a pure int light sword. but now i want to be a pure int light and ice sword. with those AOE nukes.
My moves im getting are:
Bicheon
1. Chains
2. Soul Cut
3. Passive
Light
1. imbue
2. Piercing Force
3. GrassWalk
4. Concentration
5. Nukes
6. Passive
Ice
1. Protection Series
2. Nukes
3. Passive
Is this good?

Scrap the ice nukes and keep light and get fire nukes also. So do all 4 masteries. Fire, Light , Sword, and Cold if you want to get more defense.
Only my opinion

I think geting spear masteries for passive is more usfull than Ice.

focus on the 2nd fire nuke and the 2nd lit nuke, and definitely take out the cold one as stated above(although the ice defence bonuses do help) , i play my friends nuker all the time and his cold nukes are like half the damage of fire/lit its so sad... oh and theres no need for chains either.. maybe some noobie moves to get lvled up to 30 ( im not sure what lvl you are..) but thats about it

knock down and stab would be helpful too.

The 2nd book of ice/cold is the same as the 3rd book of fire, only fire does more damage. So if you are taking ice because of the aoe you took it for the wrong reason ;x..
A real aoe would be a 90cold/90fire/90light build.. which has some huge disadvantages.

yeah. low hp. no weapon skills. no soul spear or knockdown. But sure ice might work.
Not sure about this build. But I think it will be realy realy bad in pvp (if you wanna pvp/theif/hunt like everyone else at higher levels)

You need KD and stab no matter what.

If You're gonna nuke, soul cut is kinda useless. It can do decent damage, but It's a physical delivered skill, so it wont do that much as a pure int.
ok

thanks for the advice. i thought it through and this is what skills im getting. I am still going to be a Pure int Light and Ice Sword:
Bicheon:
1. Knockdown and Stab
2. Passive
Lightning
1. Imbue
2. Piercing Force
3. Grasswalk
4. Lion Shout
5. Concentration
6. Nukes
7. Passive
Ice
1. Protection Series
2. Nukes
3. Passive
Remember, i will farm at higher levels, but for now, i need a compatible build that levels fast and requires a minimum amount of sp. is this good?

I still don't really get why you're taking ice.
Defense? The phy defense increase only becomes worth-it at 60ish.. at lower lvls you hardly notice any difference. Besides defense doesn't increase the speed at which you lvl.
Offense? First of you will only have 1 extra nuke till lvl 54

. And as ice has the lowest damage output.. I'd rather take fire as it deals more damage.
I always see cold as an extra mastery to give a 'finishing thouch', when I already have all the other neccesery skills I want maxed.
Bicheon:
1. Knockdown and Stab
2. Passive
Lightning
1. Imbue
2. Piercing Force
3. Grasswalk
4. Lion Shout
5. Concentration
6. Nukes
7. Passive
Ice
1. Protection Series
2. Nukes
3. Passive
I'd eather ditch the ice completely, or replace it with fire [imbue+nukes only]. Also you don't really need Concentration in lightning, if you want it anyway just get lvl 1 of book 1.. as it doesn't increase much after that. Wait with maxing it when you've farmed ^^.
