Pure Str Blader: Best with which Elemental?
Pure Str Blader: Best with which Elemental?
I am planning to make a pure strength blader for fun. She will get plvled by my main character. To prevent the need to sp farm she will only be getting one elemental. My question is which elemental works best with it? Thanks.

Re: Pure Str Blader: Best with which Elemental?
one element? ugh.
I'd at LEAST get 60 lightning for some speed.
Fire should be main but you'll be slow as fck.

Thanks for the input dudes. I have decide to go ice because I already have a damage focused character. I decided to go all defense for this character, to tank 3 guys at once in pvp. People will have loads of fun trying to kill me though the blocks and Snow Shield.

since u r getting pfarm, why not get another force tree? i guess u never train a chinese character b4. With full mana shield u will have no chance fighting any pure int. Atleast get light or fire for physical buffs, speed, etc.

u can already take 3 people at once. get fire for most damage and atleast some light. if u dont want it at 60 get it at 30(that should be the minimum). unless u plan on spending like 500k+ a day on speed potions

I thought snow shield is only useful against physical damage. For magical damage I thought it does nothing.

Your pure str.
Snow shield should only be 20% or else it drains too much too fast.
Think about:
60 light
60 ice
90 fire
90 wep

There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path.

How many people do u see with 90 light? Maybe 3?
Most str are going 90 Force or 90 light or 60 light and ice.
Yes that means 30 light but it seems to work decently. Not great for jobbing but still good for 1 vs 1 pvp.

Whoops typo.
I meant 90 Ice instead of 90 light.
90 Ice gives you a lot of phy defense and 90 fire gives maximum dmg. So your a tank and still dish out dmg. You don't much much speed but its good for close quarter pvp.
Maxing Force?
Half the pure str on Aege are force something. Including nukers. They all do extreme amounts of dmg.
Apparently you've never seen a force glaiver or force archer in action.

Re: Pure Str Blader: Best with which Elemental?
Ahem. Im still a noob, 36 blader, but im thinking of taking 75 of all Fire, Light, Ice and Bicheon. Then ill keep gap, and when i get fully farmed ill start dleveling Light and getting more of Bicheon. I think for that moment its ok to keep Ice and Fire at 75, right?
Edit: You should try that out for the beginning, then try to find the best build from there
