Im currently sp farming 80k sp at stronghold and after that im gona be a pure int S/S. And know when the euro update is going to come isnt bicheon/cold/light going to be a must for S/S or is it still smart to go bicheon/fire/light?

go for ice/lit cuz of the mana shield...my 2 cents, but if you dont care about it, go lit/fire cuz of the dmg =P

Do you want to sacrifice damage for tankability?
Its up to you man.


We also do not know if status immunity will still be possible when the update comes out.

thanks for the answers guys probably wait until the update comes and sp farm meanwhile and then choose

Well IMO Ice Sucks

Honsestly if you wanna tank be a blader and int is made for dmg so by dropping fire ur dropping the main point of having an int character...personaly i think if you use ice/light u will be weak,wont tank,lvl slower but its ur decision not mine

joymax has stated that it's not a bug whatsoever, not to mention that the big updates dont mention anything about it, AND there is no new fire shield skill atm beyond lvl 68 fire shield emperor...so whoever takes fire will still have their immunity...

pure int is a dmg build, so stick with the dmg build, cuz joymax is definitely emphasizing group pvp in euro update...so do your job as a pure int build...fire>ice

80 weapon skill
80 fire
80 light
60 ice (40% mana shield)

works quite well at 80 cap if you ask me.

int's use weapon skills aswell, and they will lose 10% damage over fire becease of ligtning imbue. BUT THEY WILL HAVE 50% MORE LIFE WITH MANA SHIELD.....

what's more worth, 1 dead nuker, whit the strongest imbue+nukes
or a nuker with 10% weaker imbue...but whit 50% more life becaese of mana shield??? (ligtning nuke is strongest nuke in game, however you will just have 1 very strong nuke, instead of 3 (fire book 2,3+highest lightning nuke)


edit: not to mention that older ligtning nukes can be very strong too
and in 1v1, you can pull off 1 nuke before someone else has reached you

Kinda out of subject but since you mention it: light nuke strongest in game? I thought fire nukes are stronger.
And another question. Lighting nuke with fire imbue works better than lighting nuke with lighting imbue?
I am a blade user myself so its hard for me to test thats why i ask.
Ty in advance

10% weaker?? ...no
fire imbue: 1097 at 90
ice: 809 at 90
Fire nuke 1766
ice nuke 649
lol the imbue is stronger than the nuke

Light nuke 4th book - 989 ~ 1837
Light nuke 3rd book - 876 ~ 1627
Light imbue - 522 ~ 970
1511~2807 - Together [highest nuke&imbue]

Fire nuke 3rd book - 1060 ~ 1766
Fire nuke 4th book - 1060 ~ 1766
Fire nuke 5th book - 1028 ~ 1714
Fire imbue - 658 ~ 1097
1718~2863 - Together [highest nuke&imbue]

So what you think??? For light you need realy igh atack rating. I think with light you can get almost same dmg and best deff from ice. And wear Garments cuz youl not have fire protection[mag def] that was from fire.
With fire you can nuke one by one... But with light you can kd that time while recharging ....
For slower lvl you can go fire while cap not raise
reach 80
and farm a lot sps also befour
When cap comes just delevel fire and take light imbue. Would be good going 80 bich 80 fire 70 ice 70 light - Cap raise? no problem you need a lot cash and time for curstals. And you will need to take light imbue. Thats all.
