Spear and ice. does it work?

Post by monkeyudders »

i would like to know if there are any people that know if a build like this would work.

full ice
full lightning
full spear mastery

ice for imbue and physical def
lightning for the nuke, grass walk and piercing force
the spear mastery for various other skills

mostly i chose ice for the slow and freeze and i think its much better for pvm

could somebody please tell me if theres a build like this or if theres a change i should make in my build

i would SUGGEST going fire-light-spear, but i guess u can go cold.....
fire is stronger, and does better in pvp, but if u dont want to have a cookie cutter build, go cold-i personally dont prefer it though

This is what I'm gonna be:

Hybrid spear
Lightning for every skill (including imbue)
Ice for defence, screwing around (and imbue)

You'll do GREAT at the 90 cap, for now you won't do the best, but you'll still be a very unique and fun build.

Keep in mind, though, that the damage difference in the later levels between Ice and Fire are VERY significant. In the lower levels, as in the lowever 3X's, the damage might not be TOO noticable, but when comparing the 2nd book of the Ice Nuke, maxed, to the 3rd book of the Fire Nuke, maxed, you would have to be blind not to notice the damage difference.

However, in PvE, I could see it working decently - the Physical Defence bonus would definently be good for a Pure INT build, as would the Frostbite and Freeze.

I think this build would work really well with 2:1 spear hybrids since they are able to tank pure str normally for a while plus the added ice skill at cap raise which would make them really really hard to kill.
