At higher lvls ice doesn't effect people + since your a blader you'll have crappy dmg ice will only make it worse so Fire all the way!!!

FIRE:
---------------
pros:
1) high dmg
2) mag defence buff
3) phy attack buff
4) status effect buff
cons:
1) imbue has the suckiest status effect, lol
2) overused, almost every blader is fire


ICE:
---------------
pros:
1) freezing
2) phy defence buff
3) looks VERY cool (the nuke, the buff, the imbue)
cons:
1) low dmg
2) most high lvls are immune to freeze
3) you are a blader so you need more defence against magic
4) lots of the skills are kinda useless (e.g. ice wall)

so overall i would say fire should be your choice as a blader.

the essential ones (pvp):
knockdown, max all
stab, max all
castle shield, max all
passive, max

good for pve:
the first skill, don't lvl it all the way, just enough to get through the early lvls
chain, lots of dmg for killing mobs
sword dance is optional, it's aoe, not that bad

blade force is a ranged skill, it's the only ranged skill a blader has before sword dance. after than sword dance is better.

Happy noobing covered this pretty well.

I dunno if you should be fire or ice. This has torn me as well :S.

Anyways, I think you should level both, but get ice imbue.

level fire for magical protection and physical attack.

Ice for imbue and physical attack.

When the skills are updated, ice blader will be invincible.

like +10k phys defence from shield technique, and +300 phys defence from ice.

I might change my alt to blade, the only con about blade is it levels slow.

I started as a sword/shield full int with ice imbue. I raised ice force skil to lv 9 the first book ,and than i raised fire force lv 9 first book. I found out that whit ice imbue i do less damage and becouse of that i also spend more MP becouse i need to do an aditional imbue to kill the mob or i need to use another skill to finish him of. Now i am using fire imbure. Hope this helps

u should use fire because it burns and does a lot of dmg. blade skills:

knockdown max
stab max
soul cuts max
passive max
chain series max
dance series max
