I dunno what to do. I like hitting high numbers, and I'm pretty good strategy-wise at pvp. If I get a chance to use all my skills I usually win. I'm a pure int s/s nuker right now. Lvl 70. 30 stat points saved up. Skills are at Light 70, Sword 51, Ice 60, Fire 57. I'm leaving fire and ice as is for now and focusing on Sword and light. Now is when I start my gap btw.

So back to the main topic, what do you all think. Pure int all the way? Or Add some str, and how much is good. I want to add str this one time and never again. I plan on maxing Sword, Light, and Ice for as long as I can and eventually drop Ice. I want a good ks-ing build, and a good unique killing build as well. However, I do rather like to be a decent pvp-er. I am good as of now, not very good considering I have all those stat points saved up, but I still win alot of my fights. So what do you guys think, will it be better to start adding str, and how much, or just stay pure int.

Also, just how much str do you add until there is a sharp decrease in Power. And Will the str added make up in sword?

Sorry for asking, just I'd rather not mess up and I have a decent character to a shitty one. With the 90 cap coming up, and later caps to be added, what's a good build to be? Hybrid int, or Pure?

i would add all int if i were u, but tats just me. If you wanna go hybrid, go ahead. Just don't put too many stat points into str or you'll fark up your build for 90 cap.

With lightning/bicheon/cold I think you can afford to stay pure int. Just make sure you hit knockdown, frost nova (for those not cold immune), and ironwall shield when your snow shield runs out, and you should be ok in pvp. The nuke damage decrease for hybrids is quite noticable, though much depends on your equipment and the use of premium tickets and avatar clothes.

Please don't underestimate those last two. My premium+ using, furr clothes wearing lvl 73 (just turned 74) outdamaged a non-premium, non-avatar wearing level 80 (probably farming, so mastery gapped) by about 50% (his nukes were 6-7K, mine were 8-10K), and my equipment can be called no more than decent at this moment (still wearing NPC necklace, head, chest and pants; the rest is 3rd tier +4/+5 with int +4/+5 and str+4/+5).

One thing I think will hurt is lack of immunity, but stay close to a cleric and you should be fine.

IMO full int dies too quick in pvp
that's why i went hybrid; i added a total of 34 str points when i hit lvl 80.
ATM i have gap 9 ( waiting for cap 90; i can close my gap; i have 100k sp; but i'm gonna keep farming :p )
And even with gap 9 i can kill full str glavie/bow/blade when they only have gap 7!
Off course i start these pvps with snow shield. (no bleed, no win)

Vs other gap 9 i don't even use snow shield, they all go down (except full sun...)
Full int's go down even with snow shield on, unless i don't get a single crit
and when their snow ends -> phantom to the safe zone (weak)

my build is similar to this one: http://www.silkroadforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=58269&start=0
my gear: http://www.rev6.com/player.asp?id=84712

Only downside to this build: It costs an incredible amount of sp

i would o pure int the bicheon kd skills will save you
