I personally think hybrids will be better off then pures... Here's my reason... [this is int hybrids btw, cuz well, str hybrids tend to suk]. Alright... lets go about this... If you are say a 30-str int hybrid [ie. 10 lvls of str] you'll have a naked balance of like 87% at this cap. If you go pure int from there to the 90 cap, you'll have 89%. And so on... Sitting at the 150 cap, this would provide a significant hp boost, but compared to the total of int you [could/should] have as a pure at the 150 cap, your magic % will still be almost 96%... This also means, unless the amount of int that you can put on your gear significantly increases from the 6int/6str you can put on your gear at the 90 cap, that getting a 100% balance might actually be difficult. ie. a hybrid will be better off. [Going another 30 str around the 120 cap would drop your balance a bit, but then again yield significant hp increase]

pure int lvl 140
hp : 24935
mp: 90332 [note lol... pure str will have like 90k hp lol]
magic balance : 97%

hybrid int lvl 140 with 30 str
hp : 30000
mp: 85628
magic balance : 92%

hybrid int lvl 140 with 30 str
hp : 34345
mp: 80923
magic balance : 87%

and just for fun:
pure str lvl 140
hp : 90332
mp : 24936
phys balance : 98%

Anyways, that's just showing hybrids will do better off then pure ints. Another reason, is also that hybrids are more rounded... Ie... we don't necessarily depend more significantly on a tree to balance out our weaknesses. Pure ints need/want ice for the lack of hp and physical defense, pure str need fire [besides for the extra damage] for the magical defense. Hybrids have both the hp and the magical defense we need so going hybrid and just using lightning and a weapon [spear being best... more hp, good damage output] we'll be fine and well off.

EDIT: look at how much hp pure str have compared to pure int O.o

for pure str,
1)weapon and fire= fire imbue, mag def and new fireskill(they say able to see through europe invisibility skill???no idea)
2)weapon and cold= since u mention ppl will use weap and light, lesser ppl have cold immune, and even if ppl pick fire, the fireshield will be changed to %, so maxed of that skill will not even be 100% cold immune(freezing n frostbite is now revived!!!)
3)weapon and light= speed and mag power boost

for pure int,
1)bicheon + cold(best int tanker with mana shield,castle shield and cold def buff, icewall and KD)
2)bicheon + fire(something the same with the one explained above yet int will have castle shield and KD)
3)biehcon + light(something the same explained above yet int will use castle shield and KD)
4)cold + fire(something the same mentioned above yet they have mana shield)
5)cold + light(something same mention above yet int will use mana shield)
6)fire + light (best dmg output)
same goes fo heuksal with whichever force series you want

INT rocks cause they always have more variations unlike str...
NOW... u r good as long as ur pure and sticks with ANY TWO skill trees
HOPE this helps all the people who cant think in a wider view...thanks

Lol .. you all speculating on shit that is unknown. You dunno what kind of buffs are for the 140 cap .. skills/weps scrolls etc etc.

For all we know theres a lvl 120 skill for force that steals hp from a target or w/e then force would actually be thinkable ..

Seriously though .... It's going to be WAY over 2 years before we see ANY and I mean ANY hint of a end game cap. I mean seriously people already speculating builds .... God knows what Joymax has install for us ... I mean theres Europe to come .. Islam .. which going on the silk road History islamic monsters would be mostly int based. But still how bout we end this bullshit about which build will be best or which won't.


Fact is no one knows for now. Hell I bet Joymax don't even know what they are going to do. Seriously calm down ........
