I'm planning on making a nuker.
Unfortunatly I'm torn between the two weapons.

Sword or spear.
(I know there are two types of sword and two type of spears I will address this a little later.)

Swords Positives:
Quick
Gets moves in before your opponent can.
Has 2 chances for a critical each turn.

Spear Positives:
Very Strong
Has Higher Critical
Could 1 hit KO easier

I need your help in deciding. Tell me how well your wepon works for you if you're a nuker.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now there's another problem for me.
Which is the best Mastery to use.

Fire or Ice.

I've always been a sucker for ice because of the fact it can stop an attack and weaken attack. But my friend seems to think fire is best simply because of a pretty small amout of additional damage that can be taken off. I've not included Lightning because I don't really care for its affect. If you disagree please post your thoughts on why i should chose lightning.

Fire Positives:
Takes off additional damage which can be the difference between winning and losing.
Is pretty strong.

Ice Positives:

Freezes opponents
Slows opponents and weakens.

Thanks, Please Help!

And i know its in the wrong section, so don't post it.
And i'm not gonna repost it on the other section because that defeats the purpose.

I will know for next time.

swords are best for nuking, as they hit hard and fast, and if u have a shield with a good crit ur in there

but u could probably raise both, seen as max mastery is 300, and u can train 3 skills to 80 and 1 to 60 or w/e

so id train both but make fire more important as its stronger, and even lvl 1 ice is good because it freezes

Well, I personally prefefr swords+shields because a shield with a good block ratio can block all the damage someone does to you, so it's a better defense build. Spears are for the people who wants to do a bigger damage, but with less defense ( but you have the passive to get more HP ).

Fire and ice. Ice is good to slowdown, right. When you are low level, ice is really good because you lack good skills ( aka nukes ). After you got them, ice freeze is useless IMO because in the time you use it to slowdow some enemy you can cast a nuke ( and make a bigger damage ). And fire have the better damage between the 3 nukes, so it's a good idea to have it. Plus it have some skills needed in PVP like fire shield.

And if you choose the sword tree, you have knockdown and stab. Dont freeze your enemies, just put them to sleep forever. Spears have a stun in the weapon skills to do the same thing ( make the enemy stop their actions ).

Fire Definatly, if you go hybrid then chose spear if you go pure the s/s

What's the difference between hybrid and pure?

Is Hybrid where you put some in strength but not as much as in int?

And pure where you go completely int?

if plan to pvp with ice dont
most ppl over lvl40 are imune to ice

i like s/s cause it saves time turning on fire shield

yeah if u'd go for ice, just get the buff and passive. leave the nukes .. it is fairly weak. but for me, i'd recommed u to go take heuksal .. since it's passives increases ur hp and thus good for pvp. (IMO)

Fire, Lightening, Spear and Sword - 90% naked magical balance

Light=electricity?

Light=Light Nukes... hence nukage. and mag increase,grasswalk and shizzle
Fire=Fire Nukes... hence nuker. and fire shield, mag def.

I like my hybrid spear nuker since it has lots of hp while still owning it up on the damage charts. Your choice tho

If you're going pure INT, then stick with sword and shield. I'd advise against investing in your ice tree. Just up your bicheon, heuksal, light, and fire trees.
