Hi guys, I had read kitary and Sucidegirl thread on int hybrid, and i am very happy to have counterpart having the similar hybrid build in other server... In my server of course there are higher lvl hybrid that gave me info,guide...
Take notes: I had been trial and error the skills etc, thus making lots of arrangement/chaning while lvling up... but here I had fixed my path in this swordman...

Style of Play:
I Know there is lots of doubts, questions from lots of ppl abt my build, some may find it funny but well, I am just following my heart to being a swordmanship. So fully all sword skills
As a hybrid using sword skill, I am relying on lightning tree piercing force and fire tree flame body & passive to get to my max dmg in imbue swordskills.
As a hybrid I made use of cold/fire phy and fire def series to enhance my def. This 2 combination will give u a good def - just like an additional shield without block:) Lightning tree concentration and passive give u parry ratio to move ur opponent dmg towards the minimum of his attack.
As a hybrid u face alot of style of ppl, u will be using range, close combat etc, thus the instant move from lightning tree will be a great one for us to move for range atk and regen our life.
As a Hybrid i chose cold imbue for now, for its freezing stuff, tho got pills etc, it will at times cancelled opponents skills or will still be slowed to complete its current skills. But might be changing to lightning or fire imbue if 'immnuity realli sit in at higher lvl with the new alchemy)
Why chose blade force series than a nuke? Reason being, a nuke against and enemy before close up is definitely good, but what if it is block? that's it... But my idea of chaining blade force especially the book3 and book2 together is using abt the same time of casting a nuke, but i have 3 attacks at the same timing (unless a person is so lucky to block all 3). Sure it might not deal the same dmg as a nuke, but it will deal alot still as it is hybrid attack and if critical sit in with a high crit weapon
Fighting PVP style: Against str build or close combat
I seldom use chain attack in PVP... First I shoot book 2 and book 1 blade force series in ranged with cold imbue, then move in chaining book 2 and book 1 knockdown, if player did not knockdown, rinse book 2 again (by then it is aready near complete to be use again). Once player is being knockdown, use chain book 2 and book 1 stabbing on him. During the fight, if at times ur hp is low n managed to knock down that player, chain stabbed and used instant move out and used blade force series. Concept is still doin constant dmg on the person making him hard to regen back his life at the same time staying far for u to regen ur own life before he move in to u again.
***Note: With a 3k hp, and knockdown, I do not have alot of situation that need me to move out, as my life will regen back when the knockdown took place...
Fighting style against nuker: Sometime I used blade force series first then move in to them, but most of the time against nuker i will instant move to them and chain knockdown on them, once they are being knockdown, that is it.. most of the time u r in the upper hand. unless they have superb dmg or block or use move and nuke tactic... but that doesnt mean we will lose, once u able to execute knockdown skills, even if he/she run or move, the skills will complete meaning 50% chance. however if unable to knock down, move away also temporary. Concept is do not stay in his range of nuke when u r not ready to instant move infront of him...
Witness: I saw a pure str blader: BabyRose chaining the blade force series against one nuker, both same lvl armour and weapon, unknown lvl tho. But BabyRose was like shooting daggers out, blade force repeatedly like dun have any delayed time. The nuker do not have the life to withstand... Then 2nd round the nuker was playing move and nuke tactic, in the end was being chase by Babyrose, and if the nuker does not move out of ur range, but too blur in combat and actually moving around u, u can shoot ur blade force repeatedly which ultimately BabyRose killed her...
Lastly notes:
This may not be the ultimate build, as there is also no strongest or best pvp build... is matters how u played.
Most fear for my build now is pure str glaiver: as stunned will make me hhave chance of facing fatal, but that is due to my life is still not enough... at higher lvl, things might changed...
Knockdown series: learned it from a video posted in forum.
Blade force series: learned it from the above, BabyRose fighting scene.
Int Hybrid: From sucidegirl thread and later Kitary thread.
Phy/Mag balance: I chose 70-75% on both as I am using sword skills most of the time. And will try to move both up to 75-80% with the new alchemy.
Recommendation: Concentrate on ur dmg buff/passive, and movement to lvl up faster. As the defend skills in lower lvl does not make great different, so used ur SP wisely on the dmg wise first, then later move to def... Instead lvl 40 and above, try get SOS Amour, and weapons
With the above scenario, lots of changing, lots of experiences borned me:
SkyDawn - Int Hybrid - Sword/Fire/Cold/Lightning.
Lvl 45.
Venice.
