I need desperate help for figure out my skills...

After re calculating, i have decided that, to say it simply, im f***ed. I basically got owned. My origonal quota would have allowed me to end my sp farming madness by the time my gt stopped, in 2 days, now, if i want to be the king of pimped masteries, i need 236,952 sp and i only have about 183k atm.

I need some advice on cut backs:
-Concentration 3rd, it is currently lvl 2 which gives 29 parry, and it will cost me 7,852sp to get it to lvl 6 which is only 31 parry.... Sp cost is 7,853

-The new fire buffs: Fire combustion FireFly, and Vision fire combustion. These skills reveal invisible people, such as the rogue. Would it just be worth forgetting it and using the npc pots... The cost is 11,564 sp for these skills...a lot imo

-Blade Force series: mainly just for fun, owning noobs in one hit and that kind of stuff. Could be useful sometimes i guess. Total sp cost: 18,182 sp WOW!! (i currently only have lvl 1 of the first book of this series...so its a lot of sp...)

-Typhoon Sword Dace-elusive little bastard...seems its not on the Sp calulator so i had to manually add it to the sp amount. Its basically a much better version of Snake Sword Dance / Petal Sword....can be useful for killing tons of weaker mobs. Its like a weak lighting nuke, but it has a 15m transfer distance rather than a 10m like lightning.
Total Sp cost to make Snake Dance lvl 18 and Typhoon lvl 3 is: 15,729 sp.
---OR---
Total Sp to make snake sword lvl 18 and Typhoon lvl 1 (still useful since most of dmg is magic anyways...) 10,906 sp


-I can also cut out Lightning chain...keep it only lvl 1 i mean, instea dof making it lvl 4, which would save me 6,741 sp.

-If i make ALL of these cuts, my finaly quota is only 176,883 sp, which is just silly because i can easily get 200k meaning i should keep SOME things...

Ive already decide to cut ice out for now...until lvl 90 of course. I wont be upping the nukes / freeze skill / shackle / imbue or any of those, ice is just for phy def and snow shield atm, i have no prob cutting that needless sp in it.


please please please give your opinions on things to cut, i cant have everything pimped.....but damit im still one mega farmed char....

BTW, I am a lvl 80 hybrid int S/S. I got enough str so i dont die like a pure int, and enough int thay my nukes are still as good enough compared to pure int. (ALPS server pure ints are terrible, which is why there are no good pure ints on alps...and hybrids pwn)

----------CURRENT PLAN---------------
ok, ya i decided to cut out blade force series, and i can just use npc pots for the nuby rouges in invis.... im now at 207,206 sp needed....which imo is easily obtainable. I COULD cut 1 more thing from the list:
-make typhoon sword dance lvl 1, not lvl 4
-make lightning chain lvl 1
-make concentration just 30 parry, and not 31 parry...then im golden

lets see....now im at....192,201 sp needed DAM THATS YUMMY!! enough sp left over to boost somethig of my choice...like lightning chain.

Max concentration, skip the new fire buffs for now, skip blade force, typhoon and lightning chain level to only level 1. That should be just fine. This is what I am doing personally, cause I am in the same boat as you

Do it, things like concentration buff or lightning level 4 can wait when you're capped and have all the time in the world to farm. Just get to max level first, and then you can slowly get your skills up to level.

OT:
I wish people would stop using that render, it's a really bad render imo when I've seen so much better. -.-

Venny :O
