-Get speed clothes and bracer
1/2 slot hp clothes or 1/2 slot speed clothes, but get high speed percentage, I have... humm 88% running speed increase
-Get speed/hp bracers (I currently prefer the FD wan daye bracer to GB bracers)
FD/SM/GB (yeah right GB wan daye) wan daye are a prefect exemple of those bracers
The extra damage from the GB bracer compared to wan daye weapon is minimal, around 150 dmg. But I hit for so high 8.3k average. The extra running speed and hp help a lot more
- For low lvl (before FD1) use mainly the following skills : paralyse + slow, dont waste time on bleed

- For high lvl (after FD1) continue to use paralyse and low lvl slow, but start using bleed skill, high lvl slow and when u get a spell that does 400ish dmg per hit and cast every 0,5 seconds with 16 range, use it.... use it a lot, its your pvp spell and its hard to lvl up.

- For high lvl monster killing, therefore fast moving monsters.... yes some monster run faster then you when they are 50% slowed, use the following spells in order

Low lvl slow (should be maxed)
High lvl bleed
*run a little, like 3-4 meters in the game*
Paralyse or high lvl slow (I prefer to use high lvl slow because I like to keep paralyse as a last resort spell)
High lvl bleed
Pvp spell

I?ll explain my choices : Low lvl slow does rather high damage, around 75% of bleed spell and slow for 6 seconds, enough to cast bleed spell right away without getting hit. Run a little to avoid getting hit while casting the rather instant effect spells (slow or paralyse) bleed to finish off the kill, if you know its not gonna die from your bleed, use pvp spell right away to not have the annoying "hey I have 1% hp left monster but I didnt die and I am chasing you when u expect me to be dead and are already shooting another monster"

Lvl up your spells!!!!!! Shield included. Dont buy the 1 range spells they are GARBAGE.


I am buffed on that picture. My base stats are 12 strenght, 12 dexterity, 55-60ish constitution, 250 wisdom, 85-90ish essence. (Soon I?ll be putting str and dex to 14 to wear EC relics)
I?m currently pumping essence only for pvp purpose (the mana shield does wonders in pvp)

copy and paste my post from another topic once again

SF are best nukers you wanna know why? because they dont have to deal with SF warriors which have 5 range smashes!!! Yes 5 range smashed cripple you BADLY

alemulet that tip is very bad and I?ll tell you why.

- When u do a restats, all your skills go back to cheng 1. So no matter what you do, you will be stuck with lvl 1 low lvl slow, lvl 1 paralyse, lvl 1 instant cast, lvl 1 everything. So you pretty much wasted 26 lvl of skill lvl?ing for nothing
- Another point, you will change from a character that can stand quite a few punches to a character that is very fragile. And starting that very fragile character agaisnt monsters that cannot hit you, you will not gain the ability to move around. (green jade villa or deva king)
- If you die a few times while you are OC1 trying to understand when to run and when to not run, you will lose 5 mins of lvl?ing (5%), if you die at FD1, you will lose 15-30 mins of lvl?ing. So get nuker class as soon as possible.

As for shields, theres a few that work and a few that barely work or dont work at all

- Mana shield, it work, its pretty good, but its so damn hard to lvl up.... cheng 1 : 0,01% per 3,5 cast, cheng 2 : 0,01% per 5,5 cast (OUCH!!) Its your pvp shield, lvl it to 2-3 and u can recast all the time lvl 1 is 600 VE gone for 300 hp saved, cheng 2 is 900 VE for 450 hp and so on. But you have 2,5k hp unbuffed and 5k VE, so its a complete extra shield.
- The kung fu dmg shield, cast 1 per min, last.... 58-59 seconds. lvl this one up to max all the time!!! It cost 120ish VE to cast at cheng 10 and protect for 599 dmg which is pretty high, 2-3 hit from GB7 monsters. (this is the spell you use to avoid damage while lvl?ing, if youre about to get hit and in trouble)
- The 300 yang dmg shield is USELESS stay the hell away from it, never cast it, it override the other shield you casted and make them useless and theres no yang dmg in the game.....
- The % dmg reflected shield doesnt work either, it would be so awesome if it would work, would make use more powerful agaisnt powerful pvp hitter *cough warriors that pretty much rule the game for now cough* (cheng 10 = reflect 70% of the dmg back on the warrior for 15 seconds, recast 30 seconds)
- The GB6 shield is supposed to be the greatest shield in the game, I?ve talked with EC/FC nukers, its a recast every 2 min shield and it goes up to 1,4k dmg absorbed!!!!
- The invinsibility shield last ,5 seconds in pvp (instead of 12-15 and more seconds depending of the cheng of the skill), its not a pvp skill its a boss hunting skill. When a boss decide that you are his target, you WILL die fast. Use that spell to let the healer get close to you and heal you, you will not take any dmg, the tanker might also start to do more dmg then you did and the boss will change target back on the warrior. The 12 to 20 seconds invincibility often give the warrior enough time to outdmg you again, saved your life and saved a lot of trouble to the healer (getting you out of coma, healing the massive ammount of EW you go from a few boss hits).

Little summary of shields (cheng 10)
599 dmg absorb every 1 min
1,4k dmg absorb every 2 min
20 seconds invincibility for every 5 min
Instant cast mana shield (I wouldnt suggest having it above cheng 5 or 6) but lets say its cheng 6 : 1050 hp saved for 2100 VE (you can cast it twice in pvp easy, maybe 3 times at EC and 4 times at FC)
Thats 600 + 1400 + 1050 + 1050 dmg shielding = 4100 dmg saved. Since pvp damage is nerfed, thats around 30k-50k dmg they have to do to you in order to start taking away your hp
