Noob Pure INT

Hi I'm new and after spending a night of reading through a bunch of forums for the first time I've been hit back and forth on whether or not I should start over with a new character.

right now Im LVL 14, PURE INT, 1k sp with 9 gap, lvl 5 in all force [with lvl 1 in the 1st book of every force skill) (i found out that was a mistake now-but hopefully its a small one) I wear garm and use a glavie (yup another mistake right there)


I need advice on how I should build my character or if I should start over and make a pure sword INT and sp farm the cookie cutter way :cry: :banghead: :? :( :shock: :?:

you have a couple of options.

1) start over (0-14 can be done in a day)
2) level up (and delevel the skills you didnt want at 20 with cursed heart quest)
    - put some points in str to become a hybrid int
    - put all points in pure to become a pure int

take spear if you go hybrid
take sword shield if you go pure
okok you can also be hybrid s/s, but this is just my advice.

id also take armor if i were you since you lack a lot of hp and defense being
pure int and all. mostly its pure int - armor | hybrid int - prot

theres not really any problem in you upgrading too many skills as long as
they are at a low lvl.. i mean, you wont have your 300 mastery points filled
up that quickly and you wont really miss that sp (dont even know how much
that is but i bet u can almost count it on one hand).

I use a SOS + 3 GLAVIE too :( Big mistake for a pure int like me BUT i can kill bandit achers in 1 hit so its ok :P

take spear if you go hybrid
take sword shield if you go pure


I'm planning on staying pure but should I take spear for fast leveling until lvl 30 or should I still take s/s?

u can take spear till you get your nukes. just know that you might want to
delevel heuksal when you swap back to s/s.
