Well I got back to my int nuker on Babel and thought about making it a 1:1 build.
Has anyone tried this build before?
If you did, is it any good or just a waste of time?
Kinda bored of nukes and low hp

1:1 is a bit too harsh. Go with the 70:70 balance with a spear.
Nukes are pretty much useless, but heuksal skills hit decently, and the build can also tank we..
kaWs (80:80 spear, derived from 70:70 base balance):

If you scroll just a bit on this page you will see a guide for this build. There you can read the discussion and my opinion about it ^^.

Well a 70:70/80:80 build Glaive build doesn't sound right, since as I know, you'll be adding more Int points in order to get that balance, meaning a spear suppose to be better, isn't it?
I guess a 1:1 build should use a glaive since the phy balance is higher, but I'm not really into damage formulas and calculations

As I said, I'm totally bored of nukes and too lazy to get another char to 3x or higher without plvl.

dont do a 1:1 they are horrible no matter what . There damage is not that good for a int based char. Go 2:1 int hybrid or any nuker hybrid.

See how Kaws/Undutchable pwns with his 80:80 Spear build?...
Yeah that pretty much sums up the utility of a PURE hybrid...a balance of everything and a pwnage of anything!

As I think about it, the higher the lvl cap raises, the better "pure hybrid" builds will become.
Now you can get 80:80, in higher caps it will be 90:90 or even higher, isn't it?
elnawawi, although I'm not really 'pro' in SRO, I think that glaivers are better as pure str chars and making a char with a little higher phy balance over mag one, will come out as a weak char comparing to other builds in higher caps.
Could be wrong though since my higher lvl char ever is a 34 pure int nuker

I'm going for an 80-80 build but testing it will take some time, since I'm probably slowest lvl'er ever, and I'm lvling with a 6 gap right now
