Everyone knows lightning does less damage than fire but how much less? Anyway..

Lightning 80
Spear 70
Sword 80
Cold 68

Hybrid int. Base balance 89% (9 lvl's of strength)
Max HP will be around 10.5k (approximate)

You wear garms to make up for the Fire Buff. Your Physical def will be high, first of all because of 97 def from ice, shield and you're hybrid. The only problem is how much less damage will you do with lightning as your main? Shouldn't you still do more damage with spear and lightning than sword and fire?

Anyway give me your opinions

why are you even worried about how much less damage lightning does? the point is, fire does more damage, so go with fire...duh

+1 I never understand why people use light

if you want cold you have to choose either sword or spear.

Without fire you will do less dmg (and only have light nukes no fire nukes to use while light cooldown), take more dmg from int since you dont have the mag deff buff, you will not be able to be immune agenst anything like zombie or ice.

Of course you do less damage i acknowledge that. What is the point of eeking out 3/400 more damage when a crit rapes you in the ass. It's a case of survivability vs damage and if the damage is not that much more.. then why not opt out for lightning.

I typed up this whole big paragraph and the computer froze on me...so heres the basics:

You will get whooped 24/7 without fire shield

Lmao, a hybrid with no fire shield..and no fire buff magic defense...lmao i hope you were high when you come up with this build

LoL nah i wasn't high. Its from experience ^^ I have a lvl 80 on greece hybrid int. sosun ring, hands and legs +5 equips. masteries Fire 80 sword 80 spear 68 lightning 70 - base balance 85%

No need to try and put me down, just wanted feedback on lightning imbue compared to fire imbue basically. In training it isn't going to matter but anyway i guess everyone is saying no to lightning. So thx for the feedback ^^
