For Grinding fast: KD or 4 combo chains? Pure Int S/S

Post by SuperTanker »

ok i have thought keeping my old pure int s/s and not changing it into spear. but i want to grind fast, so i decided to raise one of the 2 bicheon skill, Kd and the 4 combo Chains. which one would be most suited with lightning nuke and lion shout? i am going to raise both of these skills [b]later on [/b (faster i get farmed), but i need to choose which one would be better to lvl the fastest (with s/s). i am not raising cold right now, as i have about 26% snow shield and i dont need more (i will raise cold later).
also, i need the skill that will let me kill fast, but also kill things close to my lvl :).

thnx in advance

neither... if your pure int, use your nukes. The functionality of a KD may be more usefull when grinding in that it allows you time to pot. Other than that its not going to allow you to grind faster.

KD and Chains are for Parties/Party Giants.
I suggest using the knockdowns. They're life savers too. The chains don't get good until the last one, which gives Status.

i willuse nukes (lightning nuke and lion shout), but i am not raising ice right now, so i need a bicheon skill cause i probably wont be able to 1 nuke mobs my lvl -.-. and this is for grinding [b]right now[/b, i will raise both later.

srry for the misunderstanding, i think i didn't explain it right :oops:.

on s/s i like using the soul cut skills

3 cut skills or 3 lion shouts are about as damaging as 1 nuke and about same time to use all 3 as another nuke

why would anything even get near enough to you to be using kd or chains? :D

Ermmmm... why does it say "knock down, no stab"

:O Whats point of knock-down if your not going to stab? XD

Best bet is a nuke than knock-down if it doesn't finish them...

KD is to slow Combos Nukes and Shouts are all you need.

so u mean just raise ice and lightning and not raise bicheon at all? so i have to use lightning nuke, then ice nuke, and finish off with lion shout? i am saying i will only raise 2 masteries, so its gonna be lightning and either ice or bicheon.

hes saying that knock down is too slow of a skill. combs, nukes, and shouts are all you will need. and i agree kd even with stab takes too long if you want a quick grind.

lol good question. i had the same problem when i was grinding my s/s nuker. one lightning nuke+shout is usually not enough to kill the monsters (i usually fight 1 lvl higher)...i just normal attack lol..the imbue is still on so the dmg is good since ur pure int. if it's a champ..i usually use the combo and that finishes it.

hope that answered it. or if you had the fire tree mastered too, you could use the two nukes...but wastes lots of mp :banghead:
