Full Int Spear Fire or Light ?

[Jadekiss]

Well i was supposed to create a full int spear nuker mainly for PvP
I was just wondering should i got Heuksal/Ice and Fire or Light
I dont want a mix of Light and Fire..

Fire has the strongest imbue... but in the end.. isnt Light stronger ?
Because of the magic dmg % increase buff ?

[Pan_Raider(`_´)]

light/ice mix is for hybrids


if you seperate light and fire
If you have an attack rating that outclasses your opponent,
light will get you higher damage than fire
because of the mag. attack +% buff.

If you have a very low attack rating however,
even ice imbue will be stronger
because of the huge damage spectrum

So light does extremely well vs monsters but needs work vs players

but fire will give the mag. defense and immunity and a steady damage output, slightly less dependant from attack rating/parry rating.

So
pvp --> fire/ice for good damage, defence and immunity
pve --> light/ice for good damage, speed and parry

Ok nice summary !
Than i will go fire

What about the nukes ?
The last firenuke.. has a lower range ?
Cant look at the moment since im at work right now lol

[Pan_Raider(`_´)]

all 3 nukes have 15m range,
arrow/bomb have the lowest charge time and damage
then come burning and hellfire with higher casting time and damage,
then wide and disintegrate with slightly higher casting time and higher damage

cool thx for the info mate
what about gear?
Would garm be the best choice on 11D because of the 20% mp consum thing?
Woulndt it be helpful in snow modus?

Or should i go protector?

Spoiler!

I'm not sure how many ressources you have, wether you level up and pvp in an alternating manner or which type of pvp you prefer.


If your goal is to leveling up to a certain level where you can pvp, garms are perfect. Then you can switch to prot (armor only if you want to specialize on warriors and rogues and haunt them as a hobby)
Despite the fact that you are full int, it will take loads of mobs to oppose your potentially 1hit damage, regardless of the armor type, so garms are perfect with the +20% extras.

If you level up and pvp while doing so, either a very good (+5-+7) garm set or prot,
since you will need the suitbound extras for effective leveling and need a good defensive force to match your snow shield to put up a good fight.
Of course, if you find yourself fighting str builds most of the time, prot would be a safe choice.


If you have loads of $$$, there is nothing stopping you from making a grinding and a pvp set
But as you can see, armor is only for heavyweight str battlers because no extras= suxxors
You normally concentrate on beating your opponent in snow shield time so the mp reduction extra is normally as helpful as the extra phys. defence of armor

---

/tldr

garms if you can make them higher than +5/6 and want to use snow higher than 55% without problems
prot if you fight all kind of opponents and want a bit more phys defence than garms
armor only if you want to specialize on str based opponents

oh ok garment sound good to me though ^^

thx buddy

Light hits harder for pure int. both in term of mag and phy attk.

i thought you'd have suspended that topic
but finally more confirmed facts

[Jadekiss]

Hmm cant see the relevant pics to compare light with fire on your topic xD

Click on the spoilers? Right now, you can compare fire vs ice imbue which dispells that "imbue make big diff myth", ice imbue + fire nuke and fire buffs vs ice imbue + light nuke and light buffs.

[Jadekiss]

I see so it better to go light ice than go fire ice ?

EDIT: but the fire buffs are also usefull ^^

HYBRID FIRE/LIGHT S/S GO.

[Jadekiss]

Nah i had a SS hybrid ... he was good but i prefer spear xD
its cool though

i just cant decide between fire and light... since i want power... speed isnt important since i can buy speed drug

[Goseki]

Honestly after pvping for a month with my light nuker, i kill more. A LOT more. Basically ppl say fire nuker is stronger because they are comparing it to a light nuker in a pvp. Fire vs Light nuker, fire has advantage due to wall, and mag def buff. Against others though, light deals more dmg.

[Jadekiss]

so in the end light deals more dmg so ppl who are taking fire....just want the fire buffs over light buffs?
Weird
80 ice and 30 light would be for hybrids?
Which cand of hybrid would you recommend?
