Armor or Protector for Hybrid int spear

[delabounzz]

I am a lvl 70 hybrid int spear 85% wif nukes n heuksal skills. after the cap rise to lvl 80,i heard there will be no 9 degree armors/protector so
wat is suitable to wear after the cap rise for tis build based from your experience?
i wana wear whole set armor to withstand pure str (especially glaviers n archers) but i also been thinking
of wearing protector to avoid been easily killed by pure int

or should i wear chest n pants in protector n the rest in armors

any ideas?

There is 9th Degree Prot./Armor, but Protector is the best for int spear hybride. Hope that helps

I know there is 9 degree prot/armor now in ksro but will there be any 9 degree in our isro when the cap rise to lvl 80? coz i heard alot of ppl saying tat we wont be getting any 9 deg in our isro when the cap rise

i know protector is good against pure int or other hybrids int but our biggest threat is against pure str archers n glaviers.

in lvl 70 now,some hybrids int will wear protector coz mostly are sos so they can tank pure str archers or glaviers. but when the cap rise to lvl 80 n assuming tat we wont be getting any sos 9 degree yet. i am jus wondering whether can protector still tank against pure str achers or glaviers?

thx for the reply btw

i would strongly suggest prot - if you're going to wear any prot you may as well go full set for the 10% speed/mana bonuses, and besides its well known that str is best in garments/int is best in armor (generally) so hybrid should probably wear prot.. depending on how much your int/str ratio is..

I can say without a doubt there will be 9th degree with new cap lvl. It just wouldn't make sense if they didn't and besides alot ppl would be ticked off. They released 9th degree with cap rise in Ksro and if they didn't for Isro that would be very illogical and unfair. Also it would make training heck alot harder when fighting high lvl monsters without the new armors. Hope that clears your doubts . You can also ask a GM when they log in, if your pm gets through.

Pfft. They won't introduce new areas to train in with higher lvl mobs without introducing new armor weapons. Wouldn't make any sense... well they do a lot of things that don't make much sense but I can't see them doing that.

I really hate armor, even for ints. It just makes you to slow >.<". So if I had to choose between those too *cough*garments*/cought* I'd pick Protector.
