Pure Int Lightning

[DustAeon]

I am making a pure int light sword character. is this good? my main moves are:
1. Light Nukes
2. Chains
3. Soul Cut
4. KD and Stab
Is this good? im planning on farming later, i just need a compatible build to get to a high level then ill farm to get fire nukes and ice nukes + buffs.

If you're going to have nukes, you don't really need soul cut.
I found lightning to get annoying because I often fight in monster-swarmed area's to avoid moving to much, and the AoE got me killed numerous times. But it's your choice, and I say go for it.

It is a good idea if you just want to lvl fast in order to farm at higher lvls. I can recommend:

Lightning
- imbue
- +mov speed
- +mag damage
- nukes

Bicheon
- chains (reduce parry in combination with imbue)
- soul cut (replacement for lion shout, saves bulks of sp)
- stab (to attack when someone knocks down your mobs)
- kd (very optional.. as it will cost you sp and only helps if someone ks's your giants)
-----------
so that's pretty much what you said, so yeah good idea if you ask me

Edit:

If you're going to have nukes, you don't really need soul cut.

Yes you do.. as you only will have 1 nuke till lvl 52, and it has a reload time ^^[/b]

Umm.. I'm sorry Troo, but I highly disagree with 75% of the comments you made on bicheon.
Soul Cut: Useless. DO NOT REPLACE LION SHOUT.
Stab: To attack when you know down your opponent in pvp.
KD: An absolute must, so you can pot and get high damage with stab.

Oh, and if you're a nuker, 99% of the time, you won't have just 1 nuke until 52.

i decided to go Pure Int Light and Ice Sword. To be an AOE nuker and then farm at higher levels. The things im getting are:

Light:
-Imbue
-Piercing Force
-Grasswalk
-Concentration
-Nukes
-Passive

Bicheon
-Chains
-Soul Cut
-KD + STab
-Passive

Ice
- Ice Protection
-Nukes
-Passive

By the way Soul cut does way way more damage than lion shout. thats why im getting it

[Dempster]

is STRONGLY advise you to go fire instead of cold, your build will suffer very badly without the fire nukes, and yes the chains are utterly useless on a nuker

[imporkchop]

drop ice nuke and get fire nuke

and u need the entire fire skill tree buff/passive

and decide if u want to go fire imbue also.

and u would get the heuskal hp passie.

if u find it tight on master limits...dont lvl ur ice so much and go for the heuskal

Stab: To attack when you know down your opponent in pvp.
KD: An absolute must, so you can pot and get high damage with stab.

Oh, and if you're a nuker, 99% of the time, you won't have just 1 nuke until 52.

The question is if you want to get the sp directly for kd+stab, or take it later. Ofcourse both KD+Stab are very usefull in pvp.. but your not really focussing at pvp but at pve when you are farming later and only want the essentional skills to grind fast. So it's basically:
(Time it will take you to get the sp for it) vs (time you will save using it)

I choose not to up kd all the way because it doesn't increase the speed at which I lvl much.. and it will cost me some time to farm the sp for it.
Stab however is very usefull when someone else knocks your mobs down, and only takes 70sp to get it to lvl 1.

And on the nukes, he said he was only going with lightning+bicheon till he farmed at 52 or something.. which means he would have only be able to use the lightning nuke.

[DustAeon]

Actually, you guys didnt really listen when i said, IM FARMING AT LATER LEVELS. That means im getting fire too. I just need Light and Ice so i can level faster. Chains so i can level faster too. Ill farm for kd later. BTW.
Im aiming for this:

Light 70
Bicheon 70
Ice 60
Fire 60
Heuksal 40

Until the cap is raised that is.

[Troo]

Just to mention.. ice won't really speed up your lvling, only slow it down because you have to get extra sp for it. I'd eather put it in fire (has more damage -> lvls faster), or spare the sp in order to keep bicheon+light equal.

** your future build has some great disadvantages, but ofcourse that is 100% your choise**

[DragOon]

that build would never go right simply coz ur whole idea of farming at later lvls does let you, it doesnt let you do that build coz u wont ave sp till lvl 53 or more.. so stick just with bicheon and lightning all the way, when grinding think fast and move fast and u wont have problems.
