Well i started playing the game 3 days ageo, i am level 19.5 at the moment. I havent really learned anything about the game, mainly i have just been grinding lvl's real fast. So now i figured i mine as well see if im going in a right direction, or if i should just start all over.
Well my skills right now are this.
Bow:
19- Bow mastery
7-Devil missle
6-Multi-arrow
2- White Hawk
Ice:
16- Ice mastery
6-Ice freeze *forgot the name *
5-Weak gaurd
Those are the only skills i have pumped. Mainly what i want to do is be a good pvm person. So my question is, is my build, as of now, going in the right direction? if not, what should i change? Is there another weapon i should use to be better at pvm, should i use a different element, what would you wise people suggest? if you would suggest changes, is it possiable to salvage my person? or would i just need to start over?
You may have already flawed your character. Are you going pure strength or pure intelligence?
IF ure strength, you're fine as is... keep it up. You may find yourself having issues later on because you aret 'SP farming' early game, but this is expectable of a first character.
well up untill now i have been doing 2 in int, and 1 in str each level. the way i was figuring it, is i was always using devil bow, and freezing them, so i always needed as much int as i could get to kill them quickly. So i guess i have wrecked my char.
So it seem's im going to need to start a new char. So what is the best kind of char for pvm? i might do some pvp, but mainly pvm, also i was planning on being a hunter, so what weapon/class/skills would you recommend? also would you recommend being full str, or full int?
also, what is "sp farming" like i had said, i didnt really read/learn anything about the game. i just went out and grinded level. personally i think i did decent at the leveling, 19.5 lvl's in maybe 20-24 hours of play.
For information on SP farming go to the "FAQ" tab on the menu and read a guide there, not sure which one.
Pure strength or pure intelligence is simply a matter of patience. Do you want power now or power later?
Power Now = Intelligence. You will be dealing 2-- dmg before similar level counterparts hit mid-range double digits. Later on you will hit for upwards of 2k and as high as 3k, around level 29, which is still fairly early in game. The only downside is the APPRLORABLE ammount of hitpoints you have. Most of the time on a pure Intelligence character you rely on killing your enemies in 3-5 hits, so that they dont have time to smash you down. You must also be wary of your Aggro with these characters as you can easily die if your Auto-pot gets overwhelmed. Stick to the Spear as a W.O.C. because it does the highest elemental damage in the game. There is a sticky with information on building a Sword+shield/Spear nuker, and it includes leveling information on leveling too.
Power Later = Strength. You will be slow at gaining speed and power, but it most certainly will come. Damage takes longer to hit over 200, but it comes out fast and reliably. The combo skills are awesome, you have nice armor against physical, and you can take A CRAPLOAD of damage. The added bonus here is the choice of weapon. Ideally, you can choose either Glaive, Blade, or Bow. Regardless of weapon youll want to place some points in an imbue tree (Fire in the case of the Glaive and Blade, Ice @ 5 mastery and the imbue at 1 rank with the rest in fire in the case of the bow). Later on you can expand the Ice tree and use it as a Tetriary tree and expand the ammount of defense you have. Another option as a Tetriary tree is lightning, which increases parry percentages for your character, making damage deal lower ammounts. The lightning tree also posesses the 'Walk' series, which makes you move faster, or in the blink of an eye.
