I just recently started playing an INT hybrid. So far I am lvl 26, my phy. balance is 58% and my mag. balance is 87% without any gear. I was considering a build with both heuksal and bicheon - heuksal for PvE and bicheon for PvP (when doing jobs etc), but now I don't know anymore.

My skills are now at:

Heuksal 23
Cold 23
Fire 25
Lightning 23

And these are the builds I am considering (at cap 80):

1:2 INT hybrid knockdown nuker /w ice

Bicheon 71
Cold 69
Fire 80
Lightning 80

Pros: Shield for extra defense, cold for extra defense, knockdown.
Cons: slower leveling, low on HP, weaker nukes.

1:2 INT hybrid spear /w ice

Heuksal 71
Cold 69
Fire 80
Lightning 80

Pros: high HP from heuksal passive, cold for extra defense, fast leveling.
Cons: no shield, weaker in close range PvP.

1:2 INT hybrid spear/sword

Bicheon 69
Heuksal 71
Fire 80
Lightning 80

Pros: high HP from heuksal passive, knockdown, shield for extra defense.
Cons: no cold (and I really like cold, especially for INT characters).

So, if you have any thoughts on what build I should pick, by all means let me know.

how old are you? im just curious. shouldnt you be outside your house sometime and hang out with your friends or something?

damn kids these days have too much time, spending time to build 3-4 characters is crazy.

3-4? I only play one character, idiot. And if you have nothing to add, please stfu.

IMO, 2:1 builds suck
i would build hybird int sword with about 40 points to strength
about 83% mag when naked

rong 2:1 int build is very good
has less HP then a pure STR less DMG than a pure INT
more HP then a pure INT more DMG than a pure STR
it is very good at pvp

so does the hybrid suk at pvp????

mmm...IMO, sword better go 1:3 or around 80-83% naked since ur nuke is lower than spear.do not worry coz u can put extra blue on shield and the block ratio compare to spear....that why spear need 1INT more than sword...

my char:

Bicheon 80
Cold 80( i also using cold imbue)
Light 80
Heuk 60

actually hybrid should be getting fire coz of the fire shield and body wisdom(since u will also use weapon) but dont be trap by the strongest build..just do what u like...

and hybrid SUCKS alot of blue...so make sure ull save money:p

So...any opinions? I still don't know what to choose.

errr...use sword 1:3 with cold since u like cold,skip heuk...

actually alot of people use sword want fire, but its hard to choose between heuk and ice when using sword...

or just use my build it cheaper in SP but dont know how my char will perform in pvp...in pve?my char pretty defensive and can oustand torture more with shield+ice imbue+ice buff+extra HP

i dont agree especially whit Ice imbue because you wont be able to kill anyone your lvl at pvp in pve ice imbue is really nice u should use fire imbue or atleast light imbue
I strongly suggest going 2:1 INT spear/fire/light/ice very good build at pvp & pve

yeah i know ice imbue is not suitable for pvp....but then...i cant resist cold:P hehehehe as for pve,ice imbue really cool...ur nuke can freeze the mob..

i am considering using light imbue when i am done farming....

I think I will actually do this.

Heuksal 71
Cold 69
Fire 80
Lightning 80

I choose Int hybrid sword/spear.

Why? its so freaking cool. And with that build you could almost fight any build within your level(except cold users, unless you have immunity).

i would choose s/s NO SPEAR because imo thats just gay. level bicheon to 68 for 3rd knockdown you will save 3k sp;)

Stole my sig?

I myself am making a hybrid sword/spear user.
Fire => cap
Bicheon => cap
light => 69
Heuksal => whatever there's left
(if they ever add new skills, I'll need to upgrade lightning and thus neglecting heuksal)
Balance somewhere between 80 and 86 (it depends whether I need more damage or more hp at a certain time)

Hybrids when they are farmed and have decent gear, are good chars. It's hard to make a shitty char when you have great gear. Just play with what you like the most.

are u nuts? 83% naked mag balance is EXACTLY a 2:1 hybrid build, with twice the INT that it has STR.

It all depends what you mean with a 2:1 hybrid.
It's either 2:1 added stats or 2:1 total stats.
Added gives a mag balance of 73 (iirc), total will be higher.

I have chosen 90% mag bal S/S int hybrid. Id suggest that to u too =)

At least he's a kid, what about you? 42 year old man? LMAO, dont you have a job or something? Shouldn't be spending your time with your family? Oh thats right, you have no family, thats why you play this game to find some younger boys. WTF. Don't flame unless you want to be flamed.

I never said I was a kid (I'm not, FYI). Now please stop feeding the trolls.

Anyway, I've chosen to go with this, so far:

83% mag. balance naked (goal)

Heuksal 71
Cold 69
Fire 80
Lightning 80

I will max Fire and Lightning so I get all the buffs and nukes - as a hybrid I of course use every buff I can afford, since every little bit helps. Heuksal to 71 so I get a nice bit of extra HP. Cold to 69 so I get the extra defense that really helps at...lvl 68, was it? Also for freezing enemies in PvE, and even PvP if they aren't immune.

If I find that this doesn't work as well as I thought, I'll probably delevel Cold and get Bicheon instead. We'll see.

Oh yes, actually if I were to chose an int char hybird or not, I would chose one with the shield thus I would chose a sword int char. The 1k+ hp is not as good as blocking hundreds of attacks that would add up to thousands. I mean, say, 1 v 1 Nuker spear and sword, sword has more likely chance to winning since that nuke the spearman might do could be blocked by the sword nuker.

Edit: Though, since you are going to be a hybird, I could also suggest spear since you need more magical attack since you've lost those by adding str instead of int.

you know just because they say hybrid doesnt mean they are going 2:1 add stats or even 3:1 added stat, they can be called hybrid if they only add 20 pts to str
got that?



sry i ment added stats there, so 2:1 gives about 70ish mag balance

i am now level 52 sword hybrid,1:3...i was once 1:2 but due to financial prob so i add more int to 83%...so ill suck less blue int to reach around 90% magic balance...to save some money..it is wise to get 80-83%...but if ur rich,1:2 will be the strongest hybrid build with tanking ability...

With 2:1 (or 1:2, whichever you want) I mean a hybrid that has 83% mag. balance naked.

Now I just have to grind my way through lvl 28 so I can get to 29 and do the taoist quest...then the long and boring grind to lvl 32...but at least when I get to 30 I'll have dual nukes (triple if I had the sp). xD

Stole my sig?

lol, plagirism.

anyway. i would go with spear and s/s
2 forces are light and fire.

maybe fire and bicheon at 80 and spear and light at 70

sheld and hp bonuse. skip ice. sucks unless u want extra defense

I'm almost at lvl 29 now, was 26 when I posted this. I have added points into STR now, to give me some extra HP, and so far I'm loving it. I kill pretty fast and I still have enough HP to tank a few Earth Ghosts and a Giant. Ice helps a lot here, since it can freeze multiple enemies at the same time, giving you enough time for a Soul Spear/Ghost Spear combo. I still have a high mag. balance at 87% and a phy. balance at 62% (with gear), but my goal is 83% mag.

If I later find out that I actually want Bicheon instead of Ice, I'll just collect a whole bunch of cursed hearts and delevel Ice. I mean, I do have quite a few levels to go until I reach the cap...

Whoever says Hybrid INT sucks @ PVP is a big dumbass

doesnt matter wat build u are if u have good gear... ull be strong...

sorry, for me 1:2 hybrid is 1STR 2INT...since hybrid guide wrote it that way...

i havent reach cap yet and never experience any...but i saw one int char at my server fought a glaive with soul spear,ghost petal alone...no nuke...and win more than the glaive...very cool indeed...
