Ok, so right now I have a lvl 43 pure int char, planned to be a dual weapon with no ice, but I don't have the will power to farm that much sp.

So here's what I was thinking, going 1:5 (str:int) from now on, I'd have a bit more health but still have a high mag. balace, atleast that's what I think. Anf id I went with that, what weapon do you think I should use? Spear or s/s? And if you could give me reasons as to why you think this is good or bad I would love it. No "this build sux0rz restart" please, and if you mean it, please say why.

If you think I should continue as pure int, please tell me which wep (in your opinion) I should use (though I'm leaning towards s/s myself) and if you think I should add ice (I currently don't have it)

That's all and I gotta go right now, look forward to reading your responces when I get back!

If you're thinking of HYRBID use spear

Although I don't have much experience with INT builds, this is what I have gathered.

Pure INT s/s: Decent damage, good defense for shield.

Pure INT spear: Amazing damage, very little defense.

Hybrid Spear: Decent to good damage, decent defense (more HP also because of the passive/str points)

Hybrid S/S: Decent-ISH damage, very good defense due to shield and extra hp.

The pick is yours

I am not sure what you are asking. What I mean is if you dual wield and are only going with 1 weapon from now on, shouldn't you know which one you like more?

On going hybrid, both spear and sword can be very good as a hybrid. You should figure out what kind of balance you want and then add all str over the next few levels till you reach that balance. Otherwise you won't hit your ideal balance until the 80 cap.

i've seen int hybrids spears and shields both to be very lethal, it's all about your preferences

however i say hybrid for spear and pure int for SS
