I don't agree, its generally a bad idea to make a blader... If you want to tank, then go pure str glavie and use a shield. Your block is not that high then, but you have a little bit more hp for that.
But there i have to add, that this "tanking" didn't work. Since the alchemy update is out, there is no need for bladers, cuz other chars can do that job as well. Before the update was out, bladers was very dangerous for every built exept other bladers. There it was helpful and a must to kill the blader as first in group fighting, but now nobody touch a stupid blader. For what? Its time wasting if you don't come with 3 good characters who are able to kill him. The guys will always go on the weaker characters.
There i have to add a funny thing: Go and wear a sword as blader, then you can tank for your guildmates, till they check what you are.
That i am hybrid now, was not really a bad decision, because i am able to tank pure int characters much better than a pure str blader is able to. It depends always on how many damage you get and how many damage you can tank with your pots. And if there should be more then 2 Glavies/Bows on me, then i can use my bicheon buff who gives me a overpowered phy. defense. That sounds very clever, but if the balance of that game is so bad, that bladers cant kill anything, then i have to say, that nobody should make a blader. Hybrid str or Pure str, it doesn't matter. Go to bow, that would be my advise. Fastest to level under the str builts and its better in 1on1 than glavie. And if you want to survive a little bit longer, you can always use a stupid shield.
Remember:
Since the alchemy update on sro came out, bladers have been replaced with pure int and int hybrids who use the whole bicheon skills.
Just bad, that i was 60+ and saw a short time before all the bladers owning, when it came out and destroyed my built... SOS bladers got owned after the alchemy update by pure int with 64+7 swords and the kd skills. Unbelievable...

...and it took till today that the guys check, that bladers are no longer needed. I don't get it that the guys don't stop to make new bladers. Well, it looks cool, but nothing else.
