Nukes

[I Pk I]

Well I heard alot about nukes:

They 1-2 hit mosnters that are 1-2 lvls above their lvl
They 1-2 hit people their lvl (below like 40-50)


Alot other good stuff


I finally got mine to lvl 30 and it seems its all false it takes me like 3-4 hits with my lightning nukes to just kill monsters my lvl is it just because I got my 1st lvl nuke do they get strong enough later on to kill mosnters 1-2 lvl above me with just 3 hits or so.

Thnks in advance =D

They do get stronger. The first one isnt exactly awesome haha. I'm quite happy with mine now, at lvl 41. And are you spear or S/S

[I Pk I]

I am s/s but at lvl 41 do you like 2 hit mosnters 1-2 lvl above you?

[penfold1992]

if you are pure int stay s/s. if you are hyb go spear.

im lvl 67 almost 68 pure int s/s and i 1hit nachals without lionshout.
i 2nuke yacha's atm but at 68 i think 1hit lionshout.

ALWAYS USE THE PIERCING FORCE SERIES IN LIGHTNING

@ I PK I
I never kill up from my lvl, I feel it is too inefficient on potions. I normally kill one below, so that I one nuke + one lion shout them. Makes for very fast grinding, and you spend less on HP potions.

[I Pk I]

Well the only monsters I can 1 nue and shout on is earth ghosts 3 lvls below.

[penfold1992]

pure int s/s....

use the mag attack buff its a must.
hav a wolf out.
get prem+
get a good sword (+3 or above with 50% mag attack or above)
put int on ur equip. use fire/light imbue when nuking
or use spear.

i usually fight my lvl or 1 lvl above

[I Pk I]

Yes I am s/s with this build:

90 lightning/cold/bicheon 30 fire

maybe yours is 90 lightning/fire/cold 30 bicheon or something so you hit higher or its just the first nukes arent good.

[XMoshe]

There is one main thing that you are maybe forgetting, use your imbue with your nuke because it would boost your dmg by a decent amount

If you were already doing that...Then it's the lvl I guess, try it at 32 when you get a new weapon.

[I Pk I]

My friend said its because I am wearing protector and got a +1 SOx blade and not a sword is that the reason by any chance?

[Hustlar]

well sox blade can be as good as a +'d sword, depends on the stats though, but yes sword has higher mag attack then a blade.

[I Pk I]

What about garments?

[Hustlar]

depends, if you farm at mobs that do mag attack get garms

[I Pk I]

Hhhmm... ok I guess

[XMoshe]

Only the blues on equips/accessory can change the damage you will deal. Armor/protector or garment, all three will give you the same dmg.

[hadesking]

If you do alchemy or can find stones for your degree try to add int bonuses on all your gear at 100 percent you may then be able to 1-2 nukes mobs 1 or 2 levels higher than you.
