About Heukal skills, aim for Flying Dragon and Soul Spear. Ghost Spear or Heuksal Spear are useful as well, but just choose one of them to up. They are basically the same thing. Do not up the fanning spear nor the annihilating series, they will just eat your sp.

Now, the chains are the MOST useful Heuksal skills you will get.

1. Pure Str + glaive + fire + lightning = the strongest attack power in the game, mostly because of the +16% magic bonus of lightning added to the fire imbue and the heuksal skills. Also good because of the grass walk and the lion shout. The parry should be not too useful, but it’s better than nothing. The bad things about this building is that it offers no def. counterpart, as the shield does, and the 1000hp bonus won’t be that useful against strong nukers. Getting Fire Protection series is basic here, or your character won’t do a thing at the game. Also get Passive skill of fire. Nukes aren’t a good idea for this character, only if you really want to.

Pure Strenght characters must be the ones that go to the real battle, face to face, and have no fear of being hit, because they are tanks, they are all muscles and all power. Pure Str are NOT support characters, so taking Force wouldn’t sound to be too much of a good idea for them, except for the mp bonus, that is useful – but not essencial. Pure Str users shall use only GLAIVE or BLADE . And one last thing: they are NOT nukers, so forget the idea of taking them. Pure Str shall ALWAYS take the weapon skills, because that is what will be most useful for them.
You forgot the bow.

You have to up the Fanning spear series but only book 1 and 3 the rest is uselles but book 3 is a lifesaver

Now, the chains are the MOST useful Heuksal skills you will get. You got to choose 2 paths: or Tiger chain / Nachal / Pluto – or Tiger / Shura / Dragon. The main difference is in the number of hits. The shura / dragon give more hits than the Nachal / Pluto, but not necessarily more damage. The shura / dragon is good mainly to avoid blocking most of the hits, while the nachal / Pluto aims for time advantage of killing first.

Chains ... are the MOST useless things a glaiver can HAVE! i do have a few of them but they are useless weak damage no effect etc, althoug they can be handy sometimes in combination with ice imbue to freeze euro's but most of them are ice imune now so if you are saving SP forget these chains

1. Pure Str + glaive + fire + lightning = the strongest attack power in the game, mostly because of the +16% magic bonus of lightning added to the fire imbue and the heuksal skills.

The Damage comes from the Fire phy Damage increase buff and pasive not from the Lighting buff and the huek pasive gives more and more once you lvl up @ 80 it gives 2000HP and @ 90 it gives 3000Ish ( i believe ) Nukes ... NUKES FOR A PURE STR? .... i'm not gonna even respond on that..

2. Pure Str + glaive + fire + force = The glaive imbued with fire gives a strong attack, and force works for a defense and support matter. Not too bad, but this should not be a support character. The advantage goes to the 1000+ mp bonus of the passive skill, what helps a lot. Also good for hunters to have force, because you will want to resurrect the trader that you are protecting if he dies, right? Also, the Therapy Series are tooooo much useful while fighting giants and at high hostile areas, giving you time to rest and saving your money (otherwise you would have to spend many pots). Again, never forget to up Fire Protection, or you will die for sure. No nukes.

This build is pretty strong in 1vs1 it will own most other glaivers in a 1vs1 fight the advantage from this build DOES NOT COME from the 1000MP bonus it comes from the Vital spot series instead the Vital spot series make this build good


3. Pure Str + glaive + fire + ice = A strong war tank. Almost invincible against physical attacks, because of passive skill and frost guard of cold mastery. The Fire mastery shall stand against magical attacks, along with full set of garment. This one does not need protector, only garment all time. And garment should help him a lot, because he is a complete mp eater (bad for money indeed, you will use lots of mp pots). Try to get some skills at ice that slow opponents, like the Binding or the Frost Nova (Winds and Woods). You don’t need to up them more than lv1 if you don’t have sp enough. Get the passive skill the highest you can. I suggest to don’t get Cold Imbue at your weapon. It won’t help that much, and your main imbue should be fire always. The best tactic with this guy is to freeze or frostbite your enemy at range, use Flying Dragon series (at range) and then put your fire imbue on and make as many combos you can, especially chains. No Nukes.

Sounds like you got this pretty much right but your forgeting that 90% of the players is ICE IMUNE not the mention ppl already figured out what Uni Pils are

4. Pure Str + glaive + lightning + force = The strangest building for glaive. Your attack shall be light-based and you will get a magic bonus, along with 1000mp bonus of force passive skill. The tactic I see with this is using light nukes at long range, or Lion Shout, than go near and try to kill as fast as you can. The obvious weakness of this building is the fire – I repeat, fire is ESSENCIAL for Pure Str, or you will be way too weak against full-int nukers.

ok again Nuking with a Pure str ... .. and yes this build is useless in ofense power this could be a nice suport build with its high speed and force ressing but as for attacking the force serie vital spot decrease will simply NOT make up for the loss of Phy Damage you get from Fire

5. Pure Str + glaive + lightning + ice = Again the fire matter, but it’s more defensive than with force, and this player can actually kill pure str people that aren’t too strong at magic counterpart and use mainly phys, skills. Mainly imbue must be lightning, but it’s not the best use for glaive, I repeat. Better not try it.

again a glaiver can't do anything without its fire this build won't be able to kill anything because it doesn't have the PHY DAMAGE INCREASE Pure str don't get there power from Imbue or the mag attack they have they get it from there Phy attack ..

6. Pure Str + glaive + Ice + force = Way too strange. Your main imbue will be the weaker one – ice. Even if it does protect you against physical attacks, you already got this protection with your full str building, and you will be a dead person if you meet a nuker. Please do not even think about this building, it’s a complete waste of time. Rated HWT (Hard Waste of Time).

this build would be simply a fail... it might be able to tank some from Pure str but won't be able to kill


B *Blade*



The most useful Bicheon skills are, of course, Hidden Blade + Killing Heaven + Sword Dance, and that’s what you shall take and use in fights. Up all the shield passive skill, you will need it.

you are forgeting the chain series ... a blader can't kill without its statuses... and the Bichoen series

1. Pure Str + blade + lightning + fire = strong attack and a good defense. This one should kill most things in front of him without problems. But do not forget to get the bicheon passive skill, and fire protection series, along with thunder magic bonus. When you get a high blocking rate, nothing will stop you. Take Lion Shout as well, but only to call enemies fast for you. You aren’t a nuker – remember that. Protector is enough for monsters.

This is a pretty good build and its the most comon, as a Blader i basicly would say take all the Bichoen skils
Smashing for the Bleed it later gives , Chain sword series for the Statuses they give at higher lvl Bleed impotent Division, Shield Technique series book 1 and 3 just for the insanly increase in phy defence for 15 secs, Blade force series for the range attackes handy during grinding etc not really a must have but if you have plenty sp you should take it, Hidden Blade series and ofc the uterly hated Knockdown proly one of the main blader skils, Killing heaven Blade series ofc you have to have this to to stab your oponents when you have kd'd them, Sword dance series a other ranged atack series not a must have but yea same as the blade force series always can come in handy , Bichoen force series i would say a must have it is a excelent move against Nukers since it decrease phy defence and increase phy attack and since nukers mostly do mag attack it should work fine against them , Pasive .. well erm ofcourse you have to take that

2. Pure Str + blade + ice + force = Should take fire, but Ice + shield provides you with a great advantage against glaive pure str users, and 1000mp bonus is good for you, but not the best. Must use garment.

It does give a defence bonus .. but with ice you can't kill anything you HAVE TO HAVE FIRE,


3. Pure Str + blade + ice + fire = The strongest defense in the game. With a good Blocking Rate and a wise use of the Ice skills that slows your opponent before using fire imbue to attack will put you at a position at great advantage, among with your magic (fire) and physical (ice) defense. Just be careful with long range lightning nukers or Ice/fire glaive users – they have chances of killing you. Of course, as a good mp eater, you should use garment all time and spent a lot of mp potions – about 6 times the amount of hp ones.

this build does have a insane Defense because of the fire and ice defense buffs but again most ppl are Ice imune its not efective anymore this build is a walking tank it is slow cuz of the loss of lighting but most poeple will use drug's to have atleast speed 50% or 100%


4. Pure Str + blade + Ice + Lightning = Bad because of no fire protection, but as I said before, Ice + shield is good against glaive users, and with a lightining bonus it should be even more strong. Not very bad, but there are better options.

Ice is maybe good against glaivers but what is the point of it if you can't kill the damn glaivers .. just a endless pot war against glaivers this build would have low attack power cuz of the missing fire phy damage buffs and pasive


5. Pure Str + blade + fire + force = Good for the fire protection and for the mp bonus, that shall let you make good combos without running mp too fast. Perhaps the better use for blade, along with the fire / ice one.

this build can be decent i only have seen one of these its a really good suportive char it can tank allot and can just jump into battle and start ressing poeple and it has good attack power cuz of the Force series vital spot that decrease Defense of your openent


6. Pure Str + blade + Force + Lightning – Not good because of the fire. Lightining won’t help you that much as the fire does. Do not even think about this building. It’s classified HWT (Hard Waste of Time).

yea you got this one right its a waste of time trying this it could work as suport char yet again a blader can tank allot and with the high lighting speed you could run in battle and ress poeple but then taking fire and just buying speed drugs would be beter
