How many points into INT, and STR do you have, currently? And what are your balances? That would be helpful information, for us to give you advice.
Before I know that, I can't tell you anything else. But you could check out these two Guides, if you want some further reading in your spare time:

[23:19] vIeTxbOy911: Hello, are u there?
[23:21] redphoenixexe: hey, man
[23:21] redphoenixexe: just got back, but I have to go soon.
[23:21] redphoenixexe: could I ask who this is?
[23:21] vIeTxbOy911: Oh, umm u replyed to one of my posts not to long ago
[23:21] vIeTxbOy911: i was jsut about to reply
[23:21] redphoenixexe: ?
[23:21] redphoenixexe: wait... from sRF?
[23:21] redphoenixexe: SRF*
[23:21] vIeTxbOy911: Yeah.
[23:22] redphoenixexe: LOL
[23:22] redphoenixexe: how'd you get my AIM SN?
[23:22] vIeTxbOy911: well... i clicked your aim icon thing, sry about that =-O
[23:22] redphoenixexe: haha
[23:22] redphoenixexe: no, it's totally fine. do you need some help?
[23:22] vIeTxbOy911: yeah
[23:22] redphoenixexe: sure thing.
[23:23] vIeTxbOy911: luckily i got into SRO in 1 try.. well i got the stats
[23:23] redphoenixexe: oooh. the one about the Hybrid INT S/S?
[23:23] vIeTxbOy911: yeah : /
[23:23] redphoenixexe: gotcha.
[23:23] redphoenixexe: stats?
[23:23] vIeTxbOy911: STR 107 INT 114
[23:23] vIeTxbOy911: MAG balance 79% str 73% int
[23:23] redphoenixexe: alright. first of all, you're running about a 1:1 Hybrid right now, meaning that your STR and INT are pretty close to each other.
[23:23] redphoenixexe: what Level are you?
[23:23] vIeTxbOy911: 32
[23:24] redphoenixexe: let me think about this. hold on a second.
[23:24] vIeTxbOy911: Alright, thanks
[23:24] redphoenixexe: alright.
[23:25] redphoenixexe: if you plug all your points into INT now, at around L48
[23:25] redphoenixexe: you should be about a 2:1 Hybrid
[23:25] redphoenixexe: which is good. you might want to consider switching to a spear, or even a Bow.
[23:26] vIeTxbOy911: ohh, spear eh, so then should i get some mastery points to that mastery?
[23:26] redphoenixexe: a 2:1 Hybrid Spear build is one of the best out there. currently, you might be a little gimped
[23:26] redphoenixexe: but once you hit 48, you should be fine. in fact, once you get to Yetis, you should be able to tank them decently. mobs of 5 or more, which is, in all honesty, quite amazing.
[23:26] redphoenixexe: if you want to go Spear, as MOST Hybrids are spears
[23:27] redphoenixexe: you should do the Curst Hearts quest to completely delevel Bicheon
[23:27] redphoenixexe: and put the points into Heuksal.
[23:27] redphoenixexe: or you can buy the Skill Reallocation points from the Item Mall - 28 silk for 5 Skill Reallocation points.
[23:27] vIeTxbOy911: ah,, i c
[23:27] redphoenixexe: S/S Hybrid is a decent build, though. IF you want more information about it
[23:27] redphoenixexe: you could PM this person: Rainigul
[23:28] redphoenixexe: you've probably seen him around SRF?
[23:28] vIeTxbOy911: Well, no cause i kind of joined today : X
[23:28] redphoenixexe: haha
[23:28] redphoenixexe: well
[23:28] redphoenixexe: welcome to SRF.
[23:28] vIeTxbOy911: Thanks lol
[23:28] redphoenixexe: but PM him, if you want.
[23:28] redphoenixexe: his SRF name is Rainigul
[23:29] redphoenixexe: and from my knowledge, he's quite experienced about S/S Hybrid INTs
[23:29] redphoenixexe: he has one himself, but he quit it because it was hacked. he could help you alot more with that then I could. but you might also want to read the two Guides, that I linked in my previous reply
[23:29] redphoenixexe: if you want to go Spear though
[23:29] redphoenixexe: go this sticky:
http://www.silkroadforums.com/privmsg.p ... ad&p=72037
[23:29] redphoenixexe: and look for Guides about Spear Hybrids.
[23:30] vIeTxbOy911: right
[23:30] redphoenixexe: but if you're wondering if your character is unsalvagable, no. you're doing fine
[23:30] redphoenixexe: provided that you put points into INT from now on. If you want to go for a 2:1 Hybrid, try to put ONLY INT until L48, roughly
[23:30] redphoenixexe: and then from there on out, do 2 INT, 1 STR per 3 points.
[23:30] redphoenixexe: you might have to work out the very specifics for yourself, though.
[23:31] vIeTxbOy911: yes, i noticed that for quite some time i've figured it out a time ago
[23:31] vIeTxbOy911: good thing i did
[23:31] redphoenixexe: haha, yeah
[23:31] vIeTxbOy911: and also i have only 2 more questions ( kind of simple )
[23:31] redphoenixexe: sure thing.
[23:32] vIeTxbOy911: 1. Is it best for me to switch to garment now? ( im wearing armor/protecter atm)
[23:32] redphoenixexe: that's actually a VERY debatable question, for Pure INTs
[23:32] redphoenixexe: in PvP, no. Armor / Protector mix is better, because you're lacking Physical Defense
[23:32] redphoenixexe: but since you're going as a Hybrid INT, you'll have a bit more, so it's okay to go for Garment.
[23:32] redphoenixexe: Garment also gives you a 20% Movement Speed increase, as well as a 20% MP Reduction
[23:33] redphoenixexe: which will save you tons of pots, when it comes to nukes.
[23:33] redphoenixexe: I'd suggest going garment. It'll help you grind faster, because of the movement speed increase
[23:33] redphoenixexe: and you could definitely use the pot money that you'll save.
[23:33] vIeTxbOy911: yeah tahts true
[23:33] vIeTxbOy911: I eventually just lost my second question that i cant remember
[23:33] vIeTxbOy911:
[23:33] redphoenixexe: haha
[23:34] redphoenixexe: alright. I gotta go, man. if you have a second question
[23:34] redphoenixexe: post it in the thread, alright?
[23:34] vIeTxbOy911: alright
[23:34] vIeTxbOy911: thanks
[23:34] redphoenixexe: and I'll get back to you the next time
[23:34] redphoenixexe: I check SRF.
[23:34] redphoenixexe: NP. anytime.
[23:34] redphoenixexe: and once again, welcome to SRF.
[23:34] vIeTxbOy911: Thank you
Anything wrong guys, help him out. He's new to SRF, so give him a big welcome.
