Hybrid or Pure

Post by Snickers »

I'm currently a full str fire/cold glaive, but I think chinese are better as hybrid. I don't know much about chinese chars so I want to hear some opinions. What build should I pick if I go hybrid and what kind of hybrid should I be ?

EDIT: I'm currently lvl 19 and I putted everything to str.

Glaive = pure str
end of story.
I don't get why people say go hyb with glaive. You will fail miserably if you are a hyb glaive at higher lvls.

erm not exactly
since he is glaive/fire/cold
he has the hp increase, mag increase, and phys def increase, along with many other usefull incentives.
and since he is going hybrid (dont know by how much) he can use a higher snowsheild when needed.
i have seen some hybrid glaives and just like any other build they won and lost matches against people around the same degree as them.
a hyb glavie puts out steadier dmg along with crits.

I'm a lvl92 glaive, I know how strong it is. At first I was cold / fire and you can have the phy def buff and a bit more dmg but you will die in a couple of sec if you don't have enough hp. Glaive needs to get close to the enemy and then crit. More str = higher crits.
Btw a glaive that uses high lvl snow is a fail. The heuksel skill just suck up all your mp. If you have enough mp to use your skills and use a high lvl snow then you better use spear...

Lol I see =p But he has fire for that..And he can go garm for even more mag def. There is no good reason to give up hp and crit damage for a little bit of higher base damage. I played a hybrid str glaive and the different isn't that big.

You can't say if a build sucks at that lvl..or the next 60 lvl's probs. You can only say it sucks when you get better skills, decent gear etc >.<

At low lvl it's a 1hit KO everytime cuz 95% runs in npc gear.

True, but you still can't say it sucks unless you get to play it in the 80's and higher ^^

Hybrid glaive=fail.Glaive needs all the hp and def that he can get and glaive's are MEANT to crit because heuksal skills have higher physical atk power than bich/pacheon.Make full str 100heuk/fire/cold.With this you will be a cape hero.If you make hybrid, you will see in higher lvls that you will die fast from the most dangerous pvp builds, like W/C and rogues.And glaivers with devil spirit S can get a stunning 49550 hp with fb 100% gear and prem+,with vigors you will rarely die if you know how to play/equip shield at dangerous situations.

Wow, he was addressing your original post. Just because you've settled on a build doesn't mean others cant learn from your post and others addressing it. That's the whole point of forums, for everyone to learn... Don't be a choch dude.
