Hello all bladers :]
I've been thinking about making a blader guide for awhile now so here it is :] In this guide I will be telling you my opinion on how to build your blader and the gear. I will not be putting my say in for combos because you should always be fixing and changing your combo be DYNAMIC! :]
Ok so to start off your should stick with the growth goal till Lv60
Then after that you need to decide if your going to be a Light blader or a Heavy blader.
For the build you need to know that STR=DEX so it doesn't really matter if you go STR or DEX. Just do what your gear requires.
Light Blader:
Str: What your gear requires
Int:85
Dex: What your gear requires
Heavy Blader:
Str: What your gear requires
Int:85
Dex: What your gear requires
In More Detail
Light Blader:
Pro's: Higher Defense Rate, Good for PvE, Can solo dungeons easier :]
Con's: Lower Defense, Not as good in PvP, Gets hit harder when their Defense Rate fails.
So in the end Light Bladers are more PvE.
Gear:
2Slot Osmium Martial Helmt 2slot 20% CDI. After you get better and stuff go for a DB(Deathblow) Helm 16% CDI Crafted + 2slots 20% CDI and then Slot it so you can hit your max of 40% CDI. Final = Osmium Martial Helm 40% CDI +7.
Suit: Since your more based on PvE, You aren't really WORRIED about SSA. So for your suit you want Osmium Martial 2slot 100hp +6 in your suit. Final = Osmium Martial Suit 100HP +7.
Boots: Osmium Martial Boots 100hp +6 at the start. Then in the future you want Perfect craft Osmium Martial Boots of Will +140hp and fill the slots with hp :] Final = Osmium Martial Boots not 100% sure on HP and +7.
Gloves: Osmium Martial Gloves +4 Attack +6 at the start. Then in the future you want Perfect craft Osmium Martial Gloves of Guard +16Defense. then add 4attack in the 2slots. Final = Osmium Martial Gloves +16def +4attack +7.Rings: 2xRoL+2
Amulet: AoP+6
Braclets: 2xBoF+4

Damage Absorb Lv3
Sixth Sense Lv3
Heavy Blader:
Pro's: More Defense, Great for PvP, And Awesome for dungeons, And can do some PvE.
Con's: Less Defense Rate, Not as good in PvE.
So in the end Heavy Bladers are more PvP based

At this time I'm not going to add Skills or Combos. If you guys really want me to I will but I think its best to be Dynamic.
I will be adding more if I can think of anything.
Credits go to Myself AND I gotta say Kyria (Skitters) He helped me out alot with teaching me how to play as a blader :] Hopefully It helps some people.
SSA= Sword Skill Amp (SSA is also a big role in damage but ONLY if you have alot of it. If you have little amp then the difference won't be that much. Amp is like a multiplier, The higher the amount the larger the damage :]
CDI= Critical Damage Inc (Big role in a players damage)
DB= DeathBlow
As of now I like Heavy bladers more than Light(Martial) Bladers (This is not including forcium.) Because Defense is a 100% thing... Its not like you have a 50% chance of getting hit for less... On the other hand Defense Rate is NOT 100% you only have a CHANCE of the mob/person missing you.
