im thinking that once the new euro patch comes out with the new skills... pots wars won't be as common and pure str glaive won't be as good as it is now
not only will it not be as good (no more 100% ice immune) a pure str ice bow (w/ light) could easily beat them
I recently logged back into my Lv 80 fire blader, (in one try, I know miracles can happen now) anyway, I went to donwhang to have a mess around in PVP, and practically everyone that used to be Blade, switched to Glaive, sure its more power, but why be like everyone else? I think this game or maybe just the Chinese race is becoming all the same, with people all aiming to be as strong as or stronger than another, throwing individuality and uniqueness out of the window.
I saw only 1 or 2 Bladers outside to PVP, and well all I can say is that Bladers are totally gimped at 80 cap, I can only Kill anything that is lower level than me, even then I have a hard time, its the same for nearly every other Blader. The Blader build really needs rejuvinating, not overpowering or anything like that, but just something to make them stand out and be more usable, because now even the ability to Tank, and take a lot of damage has been taken away from them due to sosun equipment or just the fact that anyone can have high defense, so what are bladers left with? nothing because they dont have killing power, Blades have the lowest crit of any weapon unless its a Sosun. So Bladers really have nothing going for them in the 80 cap and it just annoys me a little because I know it can have way more potential.
Even in the 90 cap with the newest skills, bladers still have no chance to kill anything in PVP, sure they get stronger skills, but every other build gets EVEN stronger skills and even stronger buffs, leaving the Blader with absolutely no advantages but many disadvantages.

i agree with u guys, there is no best build! every build has its advantages and disadvanages! but i think str glavie has the most advantages:high damage(for a str) much HP, pretty good phy def...
many ppls on the forum say that they can own a glavier with a S/s hybrid nuker, spear nuker.... how can u do this? i am lvl 69 str glavie and a nuker(s/s or spear) must have the lvl 72 weapon to kill me! enything below lvl 72 cant kill me! i admit, i have pretty good gear(NO sun) but they need to be higher than me and use a better weapon to kill me...thats why i think nukers arent that good!
throughout the whole game from lvl 1-80 nuthing is balanced in any way at all.
1) 1-9 gap with mastery lvls
2) 1-9 gap with actuall skills and buffs against mastery lvl
3)normal,sos,som,sosun weps
4)sheild BR 10-20 or more
5) stats of armor or garments
When your lvl 80 then whatever build you are you should never be killed. PERIOD
and IMO who has most chance to suvive... full str BLADER FTW
