Which do you think would be better a 1:1 ratio STR vs INT or 2:1 STR heavy?

well, it basically is based on wat u want. hybrid is good try to use this as an aid [url]http://silkroadforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=1746[/url]

I personally dont think that 1:1 ratios of str and int are that great. If i had to go hybrid i would choose either int or str heavy..

Im with blaze, nobody wants to be a useless jack-of-all-trades.

the difference between a balcend build and a hybrid are the goals of the build.

Balanced builds are similar to a character utilizing a nuke with high strength. The nuke and Weapon are both equally effective and they use both evenly. Neither is devastatingly effective, nor can the player tank massive physical or magical damage. He is unspecialized and incapable of enduring a specilized group of enemies or players.

Hybrid builds are more like one assassin build i used to run in Diablo II. The character utilizes traps that deal enough damage to be painful to bait out equipment that has lower armor level and Hitpoints, but higher lightning absorption rate. Then the character shows her true colors, swaps her weapons, and utilizes an even more powerful on her now weakened foe to send them into a 'WTF zOMG u fraekngi hakcro!!!' frenzy. A hybrid has 2 or 3 things it can do, but it uses the others as a cover or an alternative to its best trick in its book, the Ace up its sleave.

You need to bend heavily on one side otherwise your balances will both suck.

lol very well said

stick with either pure str or pure int, if u decide to cut str an int in half ur doing weak damage. some games hybrid is one of the best builds but the way SRO is hybrids are only good fighting lower lvls, basically ur damage is medocre, cus ur build is medocre =).
