Advice/comments on my build

Ok, so I started again a few days with a new guy, uses protector, 5:1 int:str ratio (i.e one level I put 3 on int, next I put 2 on int 1 on str, then 3 on int, and repeat)

Not played for 3 years so i'm a bit of a noob, but here he is:

Is this a good build? Or should I just scrap plans for 5:1 and go for something else?

I like 5:1. Combining heuskal moves with your nukes = win IMO. Has you go along you can always change your build to like 7:1, if you want more damage, or 3:1 if you want more defense. The possibilities are seemingly endless. You can taper your character to fit your gaming style.

But that's just me talking. = p

Like. I used to play 5;1 Light/fire/heksual but since there are warriors and rogues I fell in love :love:

I always played heuksal with my nukes :S
Guess it's not a normal thing.
I stopped putting points on fire at level 5 and switched to lightning, because I never used lightning so I thought it would be nice to try it out.

Should I bother with fire or just focus all my points on heuksal/lightning? Also thinking about ditching force alltogether.

I hate the force skill tree. I think it is utterly useless compared to other skill trees.

I'd go either 100hueskal/100fire/100ice for the PvP benefits that fire and ice give you. Or 100heuskal/100ice/100light for the speed benefits and what not.

I'll start updating cold aswell then

How/when can you start removing levels from skills? as fire is at 5 and force is at 10, both of which I don't need.

At around level 20 you get a quest from the donwhang potion guy. This quest makes it so while your grinding on mobs they will, periodically, drop little blue bags. When you collect 10 of those you can turn them into the donwhang potion got for a potion that'll remove one skills level or your skill trees level. You get 80% of the sp back that the skill originally cost.

Hopefully this makes sense to you. If you've got any questions about it just ask.

I'd go with 7:1 cos i like more damage and heuskal is a powerhouse to begin with...

i went with 9:1 for my s/s cos it lacks power.
