Is it worth it? Should I max it all out?
if you're a pure str blader .. do you have cold imbue?

Too much people are immune to cold in higher lvls. Cold bladers use to pwn...not anymore, go fire

You can get cold mastery, but i think cold imbue would be a waste

For PvP not, but for PvE is it probably the best skill, since bladers are meant to tank their opponents.

good idea. cold imbue ppl so when you knockdown, they jump back up without letting you stab.
ice imbue = bad for str chars. unless archer

if you already have ice id say level up ice imbue
when your attacking someone look at their fire-shield, if they have Emperor use fire/light imbue but if they have anthing else use ice so you can annoy the shit outta them

can you say cleric buff?
Wicked hit the nail right on the head. Ice is only really useful when you need to use it to survive a mass amount of mobs attacking you, which for a str blader is a dam lot. Not too much of a need for it.
But back at the 60 cap, ice bladers were the pro build of choice. Dam annoying things they were >.>

cleric holy spell might not make you immune.
if it doesnt, then ice imbues back.
and yea you can still kill with ice imbue.

i actually thought of making a pure str fire/ice blader totally w/o lightning... using drug of typhoon all the time...but that would be very costly...
dmg + def minus the parry and speed ...

The best is light/ice because you use ice at nukes and light at pvp. also use chains in ice so they'll freeze out.
im gonna try a ice/light/spear chinese when I can log on.

well, euros arnt imune to it and with the 90 cap, i think many people are reducing the lvl of their fire. So, ice would be bad-ass.
