Lightning+Force---Would be a great build. Vital series takes less then a second to throw on someone and you could get about 2 nukes while their defenses are lowered to hit for insane damage
Yea i can image how hard a full int char with spear could hit that way
But anyone you fight with could basically 1 hit you because you have no defence whatsoever (s/s is better but still...). And Firing vital spot will take time, not much, but enough for you opponent to stomp you to the ground.
Ah! Thats the fun thing about 150 cap. You already identified the milliard of options we could take, and they will all be equally viable.
Was going to post this but hesitated. Might as well for w/e its worth:
If you feel you still need some guidance in making a future decision, then ask yourself these 3 questions:
1. Will a skill still be effective, or significantly useful at 150 cap if I only take the tree up to lvl 75? (specializing vs versatility)
2. Will my mastery choices be sufficient for me to lvl up, ie killing monsters easily the higher I go?
3. What will other players do? Remember that at lvl 150, all players will be forced to choose and limit their masteries. What effect does this have in terms of pvp?
Feel free to speculate. At this point, there is no right or wrong. For Chinese chars however, dont limit yourself to only 2 or 3 masteries at this cap. The strength of Chinese chars also lies in their ability to max out 300 mastery levels before 150 lvl cap, compared to Euro that can only max out two masteries at any level. The skill reallocation potion or silk item, isnt just to change a mastery, but to curve out your chinese char progress in terms of mastery usage the higher level you go.
Since we are going to get 90 cap soon (in a matter of months hopefully) it doesnt make sense to take 4 skill trees now for a Chinese char, unless the 4th tree (if the other 3 are maxed to 90) at 30 lvls will still be usefull. There are only 2 trees I can think of that will still be useful to lvl up to 30 that has an impact:
1. Ice to 30 for snow shield for pure str users
2. Fire to lvl 30 for fire shield skill to retain immunity (although this will probably be fixed, and you loose the buff once you unequip shield).
