I've been thinking about making a full sword dude with ice as main imbue, is this kinda ok, or its totally lame?

totally lame (dude).

Give it a try. If it sucks, just delvl, and switch.


But glaive + ice = gtfo.

nukers are about doing high dmges. when u get ice, it's the smallest amount of dmg u can do on a nuker. The only thing good about ice is it can freeze/frostbite, which will suck in pvp cus a lot of people are immune to it. Get fire you'll hit much harder.

get light/ice/bicheon and uce light imbue...
no reason for ice imbue

go bicheon/fire/light and let fire be ur main imbue.coz when i make a s/s full int and i was lvl 20 and was killing devil bugs in garments they just hit me 10 or lower without sos or + no kidding

go ice, light and force.

those 2 minute of snow shield should get you enough time to kill anyone with the correct use of force.


perfect for grinding and since everyone can be immune to any imbue status why not use ice? since its worth in grinding.

not to be rude but int builds only start to be effective when they got their first nukes, that is why most pure ints go from 1 to 30 with bow.


as a pure int that bit of damage difference wont be such a big deal.

Ice imbue + bicheon chain = the sex at lower levels.

when mobbed by 3 party mobs, you will wish that u had ice imbue. lol ...

please...can someone give me definitive damage difference between imbues...i did a rough test and used fire imbue against lightning imbue while doing the same nuke..difference was ~200-300 (fire winning) sometimes the two were equal (both hit similar highs). This was while i was hunting penon.

I am making a Pure int S/S.

light/ice/bicheon sounds the best, fire is only good for damage. All the buffs are for anti magic which seems stupid for a pure int, Light is close to fire for damage if your getting attacked by 2 things at once.

Ice is good for the new skill that lets your mana become part of your HP. So you take damage to your mana as well to your HP by the end 50% of physical dmg will be sent to your MP and 50% to your HP.

I think we need a new Pure int S/S thread to cover the update.

My S/S int nuker is at 58 right now Going heavily into Fire and light

The ONLY reason you should bother putting points into your ice tree is to get the defense skills. Dont even waste your skill points on the attacks. Their too weak.

Fire imbue is the highest damage of all the imbues. Light is pretty much the same but without the burning effect. Instead it reduces parry ratio.

Nukers should be using Fire imbue for optimal damage.

And since you are going to go S/S you really need to point into bicheon too
