THANK Q V MUCH now i have new plans on creating a NUKER...
but somethings bothering me though?...

1st question that is bothering me to make a nuker:
The SP is about 5XX,XXX. should i FARM it at lvl 16 or other LVL?

2nd question that is bothering me toi make a NUKER:
Isn't the Nuker Pure INT Nuker the FASTEST LVL'er?... so how many monthes does it take me from lvl 1 ~ to LVL80. I don't Need a a espicific answer but ... something colse to it


please and thank you [/url]

[teno123]

uhh sorry im new and i wanted to know if what kind of armor or protector should I use?

and which one is better? i wanna make one thats just really good for lvling farming and stuff so i could fight alot of stuff to get items
and it doesnt focus more on pvp

[teno123]

I wanna choose one but I dont know what to choose but I wanna get good items and stuff so Iwanna hunt monsters and be able to kill them solo or with a partner but mostly solo. what would you recommend

and im a PVPER but thats why I wanna make a character thats best for both PVE and PVP or just 1 pure PVE and PURE PVP which one is which?

and I have a friend thats been playing a while on the server im playing so he could help me out. and probly hook me up but.. what should you suggest hes something esle and hes kinda lame for builds

but what should I do with my stats and junk...

sword and shield should cool because you block and stuff but im worried of hitting very low so it would be hard to lvl up and + harder to kill things quicker

with spear the mag dmg is high so it should be quick but with no shield probly die quick unless the armors or w/e is really good?? or maybe you could make the sword better? but if you do you can make the spear even stronger too? O_O what would you suggest for me help meee buddy

or maybe even tell me your stats hehe I hate making mistakes

I love MMO's but I always need help. I know theres pros and cons but which is like you know... theres less pros and cons on certain things and preferences

[teno123]

or can I still be a killing machine as a sword shield ? and find items? it'll just be slower than spear right? and + it depends on waht kinda gear you get too right?

I was wondering but isnt spear still good for pvp? just gotta be carful what you do and stuff? just throw out some nukes and stuff and pot crazy?

just tell me what you think I should do.... rawrr im so confused!!

turn me to a right direction!! <3

[teno123]

I think im gonna go

full int spear but uhhh >.<: where can I go farm for sp

[Pinoy_Archer]

LOL if Ur planning to farm, Its Ok if plan to use spear, but the first skill of Heuksal STINKS!!! Most Farmers Use Bow because the first skill~Anti-Devil Series~ got +25% crit., and bow has a large range making it Invunrerable to attacks(summary~bow Long= Mob dies b4 it gets to u) ... and its one of the Powerful and the most used skill for BOWERS (Lol thats y i use Bow It totally HURTS A LOT!!! )

GOT Int Or Str It works!!!
INT~ you could change to spear or sword and shield and get NUKES at lvl 30...
STR~ you could maintain to bow or go to HEUKSAL...

[Pinoy_Archer]

oh yeah and heres is a tutorial about SP farming and WHERE?

i wold likw to see it updated not old

[Jutsu]

chinese pure int dont really suck at surviving :/

[blake2]

With s/s nukers is it imperative that i go heuskual to lvl 60 instead of ice.
Because with the update came snow sheild which i find soo helpfull.
So would it still be a good idea to stick with spear and get the passive (extra HP) or go with Ice purely for the phys def. and snow sheild, HP absorbtion?

Thanks and great guide

[[AoW]ForLife]

Wow guys sorry didn't know anyone still cared about my guide :O

jay0303 I don't play SRO anymore, and anyway I lost IguanaRampage's account info, so I can't update it

@Jutsu They sure did before mana shield. Well, sorta. I mean they can tank a little with a godly protector set and a 18+ BR shield, but... let's just say even with all that, the only int-based guy without any sun protectors (sun sword though) that I know can consistently beat a +7 glaive with sun protectors has a pretty pimped set and isn't full int.

@ blake2 I think the snow shield would probably be more helpful of the two now, unless, of course, you wanted to go dual-wield int, which can be excellent in the right hands. In that case, I'd drop down fire a bit if you're a pure. Quite a bit. For a pure, getting a good mana shield is very very important. The fire phys atk bonus and mag def bonus gets more and more important as you hybridize. However, DO NOT wear armor if you're totally dropping fire. You will get owned by INT's even with mana shield.

[blake2]

ok thanks for the reply,

so your saying something like:

bicheon or heuskual --->80
ice------------------------>80
fire ---------------------->60
light---------------------->80

But then wouldnt our fire nukes be really bad?

Say I went dual weapon, full int:
bicheon--------->80
heuskual-------->80
fire-------------->60
ice--------------->80

Would that work?

And thanks for the reply, even though you dont play sro anymore you still reply, great xD

[jay0303]

haven't you notice lightning is more superior than fire because buff and it does around same damage need ice mana shield and weapon that will just help and for me i just think it is cool


i didn't have time to double read it but sorry for mistakes

[Firemouse]

Well this is for 80cap, and on one of the builds he had both light and ice. Also, I'm not sure if lightning is "superior" but I do prefer it over fire..90 cap will bring about some interesting builds.

Also, good well thought out guide.
old..but good

[jay0303]

i know right now fire more necessary because lightning next nuk is at lvl 50 i need second fire nuk bu cost too much to lvl it down

[blake2]

Ok i see what you mean.

But then if we dont go do fire only to 60 then should we do lighting imbue instead of fire?

[jay0303]

yes since ice imbue will be weaker than lightning i am going with lightning imbune


so this is lvl cap

80 ice
80 sword
80 lightning and 30 fire

lvl 90 cap same thing i am not lvling fire cost to much to lvl down

Remember though that as an int you have little hp. Here, regardless of your mana shield lvl, the fire mag defense buff can be INCREDIBLY useful in letting you survive against the highest damaging build in the game--other intelligence-based builds. I can't tell you how many times I've seen sword/shield pure ints wear armor and get screwed over by the first nuker or hybrid to come along with the opposite job.


Lightning is the KEY tree to any int build, since it increases mag defense and speed (useful for running away from glaivers). It also increases parry. However, fire is also very important for an int because it increases your overall dmg by increasing phys damage (granted, it doesn't factor in as much as mag dmg increase, but everything adds up, particularly for a hybrid).
When adding mana shield, I would recommend that you pay a little attention to how much mana shield will ACTUALLY be useful. What's the point in having 80% mana shield when, thanks to your skills, you're almost always going to have less than 70% mana anyway? There are a lot of INT's who use a ton of masteries adding mana shield, just to watch their mana disappear too early. In this case, it's probably WORSE to have high mana shield, because this means you can't use certain moves that could get you out of this situation safely.
I know I've been ranting---but does this make sense?

[jay0303]

that mad my head hurt

[korroke]

just wondering if a 73% naked magic balance is ok >.> for a hybrid int s/s spear

[Brutal]

Very nice guide, I'm thinking of becoming INT Spear but I'm not sure.
Also I'd probably just use light imbue for fun cause i always go with fire .

[IguanaRampage]

Great now I have an avatar so I can post in my own thread

Well, I was on [AoW]ForLife and figured I might as well check my INT guide. Then I saw !Slightly Outdated! next to it!!!!!! That can't be!! So hopefully, ---Rev--- and I will have it updated by the end of the week. Cheers!

just wondering if a 73% naked magic balance is ok >.> for a hybrid int s/s spear

Yes, it is ok. I would recommend some pretty pimped gears though. You'll definitely need the extra INT if you plan on using sword (spear too, but I've seen spear do well at lower mag balances than sword). So yeah, if it suits you and you're planning on getting good blues, go right ahead. I think it'd be a pretty good build as long as you keep in mind that you won't be as good at killing as those with higher mag balances.

[MFA1486]

so what about after cap 90

[Timmeh]

Thanks a lot, this guide is perfect for me as i am getting one of my chracters powerleveled so it can become a nuker and i didn't have a rough idea of what i was going to do with it. I.e in terms of what skills to pick.

[Fictional]

great guide
