Is this completely useless?
I don't want anything except Bicheon and Ice mastery, i really hate farming..

Please tell me, before i get too deep in the char?

This used to be a really popular build in csro. Nothing can kill you. Especially with castle shield now + extra defense from ice, absolutely nothing can kill you. Problem? You can't kill anything either =P (except pure ints). Like all bladers, slow lvling.

I could just do it, since all my previous builds have been farming maniacs ( Which i never ever complete ) i wont lvl that much slower...

And nothing can kill me? Perfect. I hate death... T_T

its really hard to kill though, especially if u dont train fire because that gives the phys dmg bonuses.
Oh and hate to burst your bubble but:
str builds can't kill you, unless u have like 5 on you I guess lol.
2-3 good ints can easily take you down in an instant, because you don't have fire mag defence buff...

Thats all true.. But i can just start out IceBlade, then get fire later on. I still want the annoying ice imbue anyway

wooo, finally someone w/ knowledge of cSRO. Have you read anything about cold immune for cSRO

over here, ppl talks about cold being useless b/c of cold immune at higher lvls, but from the articles i read about cSRO, no one speak anything about cold immune

again from cSRO, the fire glaivers don't even bother fighting cold bladers b/c of their ridiculous high defence and their annoying attacks. as someone said before, ppl cant kill you, you cant kill ppl

well, wats the first rule for nukers? don't nuke pure STRs w/ garments on; if you wear garment, you'll be fine from nukers

i went from 1-45 on only bicheon/ice
at 45 is when i wanted to get grasswalk/phantom from light tree
then 0 gap to 60 (while lvling raised fire buffs)
now im farming to get them higher.

i still use ice imbue, its great.
you can kill any mob like +10 or higher ur lvl even with +0 gear.
just takes long lol.

at 58 i killed all mobs including the ones in takla

missing isy/yarkan

lol? if all strs wear garments (which is increasingly common) u think strs are immune to nukers? I've seen strs in good garm sets lose incredibly badly to nukers even with fire mag. defence buff.... without that AND without the phys atk increase I dont think ice bladers will be all that great. Ice blader with fire buffs can be very good though ^^.

i dont think you will enjoy the ice build very much at all. i am a pure str fire blader and its a beautiful build. if you have good garms, you wont get pwned by nukers as stated above. pure str bladers are awesome tankers, everyone knows that, and with a good shield big nukes have a greatly reduced chance of doing any damage at all. plus if you do go with ice then you must realize that at the higher lvls the fire shield series does dramatically reduce the frost effect, not "immune" but nearly unnoticeable. one more thing is that bicheon and fire sorta go hand in hand. bladers need phys buffs, fire has that. bladers need good DOT, fire has that. bladers need good mag defense, fire has that. also with the fire shield series, you obviously need a shield equipped...blader. im sure by know you see a pattern...

ok ice blade wtf lol ur atk is low and since blades atk is already lower than glavie go fire u need the extra atk and burn is even more so ull pwn in the long run and ice blades in pvp do low atk so fire is way better and fire gots the fire shild thing for the effects so if ur high lvl and got the shild thing high lvl ull be so ..... immune to ice its not even worth it so FIRE is best
