I have a couple questions about this guide...
"Annihilating Blade Series- lvl to 1 then delvl with curst heart quest "
Why? Is this for low level leveling? or... is there another reason behind this?
The second would be; is fire imbue better then lightning? I have heard people say lightning is better and others say fire is better.. Hmmm
Thanks for the guide though, major help!!!

Re: [GUIDE]: Building a Pure Int Nuker
I think getting the sword skills is more worth it till 90 cap. i think u should get smashin' series for the last skill which causes bleed and also lightning chain which causes bleed impotent and division which makes them take 700hp damage from bleed half the attack power and half there defense which u can take on a pure str glavie and win without using snow sheild so why not lightning chain and last skill in smashin' series

yes they are fast leveling but once you hit around 40-50. you start gaining mad low exp. Even with a gold ticked grinding on penon warriors with a 2-3 level gap, i would only be gaining .02 xp per kill approximately. again...WITH A GOLD TICKET. and it would take me about 3-4 days of straight grinding to level. thinking how aggravating it would be without a gold ticket.
you will understand my frustration when you get there.

simple, put all your character points into INT. If you don't know why, I should slap you![]()
Armor
Armor-(recommended when grinding or pvp) good physical defence, lacks magical defence. slows you down in running speed
Protector-(recommended when pvp or grinding) has both physical and magical defence but not great in both. has a small mp bonus, gives faster running speed then armor, less than garment
Garment-(recommended when in caves when fighting nachals) has good magical defence, lacks physical defence. gives a good mp bonus, you run faster than protector and armor
I am wearing armor right now, then I am switching over to garment or protector for 7th degree. then im switching back to armor.
Weapon
You are either going to use a sword + shield or spear. DO NOT I repeat DO NOT use bow when you are making a nuker (except when you are sp farming in the bandit den, but thats another story). Bow nukers just drive me crazy.The bow is a ranged weapon and the only ranged attack you need is your nuke and the bow is neither a STR or a INT weapon
The two weapon choices has its pros and cons.
Spear- better for lvling, does more damage then the sword but, you take more damage. Passive gives extra health
Sword- better for pvp, you take on less damage but, you deal less damage. Passive gives more blocking ratio
I say, when you are in the higher lvls, you are eventually gonna get the best gear so staying spear would be a good option. But, if you are gonna get good gear and go sword, it doesnt really matter. If you cant afford good gear, go sword and shield. Sword and Shield is what most nukers choose. But, do not get both sword and spear, only choose one.
Which leads me to my next point.
Masteries and Skills
Lets start off with masteries.
when you get the the 90-100 cap, your gonna have to choose two-three masteries and delvling one. I would choose not to get cold. Plus, lvling cold anything above 60 is a waste of sp. So choosing lightning, fire and weapon tree, it should look like this at the final cap(assuming the final cap is 140)
weapon tree-90
light-70
fire-140
you could play around with that to your liking.
another thing, your lightning mastery is just your sub, you are getting it for the buffs. So, you would lvl your mastery tree higher then your lightning because for every mastery lvl you put into your weapon tree, makes your weapon 1% stronger. For example, a person with a weapon tree at 60 and another person at 70. The person with 70 in his weapon tree, his weapon will be 10% stronger than the person with his at 60(assuming they have about equal weapons)
also, in ksro many nukers at the 90 cap have just lightning and the weapon tree. And, here is a little secret not many ppl know(credit to Fly) when you use all 3 lion shouts one after the other. It does the same dmg as a nuke but, it casts faster. So, you would still be ok if you just went lightning and weapon tree. The masteries should look like this.
Weapon- 140
Lightning- 140
you can do anything you want with the extra 20 mastery points you have.
Now the skills.
Your main skills should be fire and light or just light if you choose to.
Fire
Fire Force Series(Imbue)- Max
Fire Shield Series- Max
Flame Body Series- Max(for your spear moves)
Fire Protection Series- Max
Fire Wall Series-optional
Flame Wave Series(your fire nukes)- Max
Flame Devil Force Series(passive)- Max
Lightning
Lightning Force Series(imbue)- Skip
Piercing Force Series- Max
Wind Walk Series- Max
Lion Shout Series- Max
Concentration Series- Max
Thunderbolt Force Series(your lightning nukes)- Max
Heaven's Force Series(passive)- Max
If you plan to go sword.
Bicheon
Smashing Series- lvl to 1 then delvl with curst heart quest.
Chain Sword Attack Series- optional
Shield Technique Series- Max books 1 and 3
Blade Force Series- Skip
Hidden Blade Series(knockdown)- Max
Killing Heaven Blade Series(stab)- Max
Sword Dance Series- Optional
Shield Protection Series(passive)- Max
If you plan to go spear.
Heuksal
Annihilating Blade Series- lvl to 1 then delvl with curst heart quest
Fanning Spear Series- Max books 1 and 3
Heuksal Spear Series- Skip
Soul Departs Spear Series- Max
Ghost Spear Attack Series- Max
Chain Spear Attack Series- Skip
Flying Dragon Spear Series- Optional
Cheolsam Force Series(passive)- Max
Grinding and Sp Farming
Do quests till lvl 35-45, then you will have to get a gold ticket because you will lvl really slow. When you are finished grinding your gold ticket for the day, go ahead and do your quests if you wish.
You will basically grind on mobs the highest lvl mobs you can 1 or 2 hit. (after you get your nukes at lvl 30).
When sp farming you will want to grind on green mobs (when sp farming at the bandit den at 16). I farmed 10k sp there. Then I closed my gap and started to lvl. When you reach the lvl cap, all you are doing is finding new gear, job runs, and sp farming. So, I will sp farm then. When you get there, you will want to farm on monsters you can 1 hit or nuke and lion shout.
I hope this guide helped you make your nuker. I do not claim to know everything but this is what I have by observation and data collection. Please feel free to correct or add anything by posting a reply.
for the final cap at 140
100 bicheon
140 light
60 ice
this is if only you go bicheon instead of hueskal
this seems better in my opinon becasue at cap 100 bicheon get new chains with fear and some other stuff.
140 lightning is a must for putting out high damage with nukes and mag buff.
60 ice for 40% snow.

yeah again, i just got back so im probably not aware of all the changes that will be occuring in the higher levels. I like you build...everything but the ice part. sorry but id just rather have fire.

Re: [GUIDE]: Building a Pure Int Nuker
lol why would you need fire your pure int 60 fire is useless at 140 cap
1. nukes suc with lvl 60 fire.
2. mag deff buff is useless since your pure int.
3. the phy buff is useless since your pure int.
thats pretty much everything in the fire mastery...

Are you sure that the weapon mastery also pimp your magical damage? I heared that it get only for physical damage in use.
To say since, the being is not or the non-being is, is wrong to say against it, the being is and the non-being is not, is right.

Re: [GUIDE]: Building a Pure Int Nuker
*cough* drop fire >_> fire will be useless to pure int at higher lvls. Seeing as you get narrowed down to 2 trees.... Light and Wep. All wep will be given stuns and effects, so it is needed, force-wise ice or light. Light will max your attacks while ice will give you crazy defense. One or the other.

Re: [GUIDE]: Building a Pure Int Nuker
So how come you don't need Ice force for phy. def and mana shield? ice wall helps too if you're fighting against a giant or a warrior/blader/glaiver

it drops with stun, and recasting the wall isnt fun if it falls after 10 hits again
