For Better Slowdown "ICE" do I need 160 int ?

[jfn7]

i just want to know, do i need 160 int for better slowdown or what?

[tHeUnBeAtAbLe]

for better ice rate try to get shios

[DeathAndResurrection]

when i was ice i had dual shio +1 and i notice alot more slow rate when i was 160 int hp build vs 160 int full mp build

[Alibaba85]

duel shios i dont think helps the slow rate, i think it just adds to the damage.

my slow rate for my 112mage is about the same for my 160int mage...... I think its the staff. To me when i use my GE+7 it slows alot better than my Elixir +7. But my Oasis +7 slows decently and hits harder.

The shio's do help, but not as much as people think
I myself have dual Shio's +2 atm, and i can say to you that they dont increase your ice rate with huge amounts.
It helps for sure, but its not like i ice everybody, i probably ice like 80% and thats with an oasis +8.

But the Shio's do help allot in the dmg, thats a fact

I found it much better the other way in ROFD, with 160 int and like 240 mp, I was icing pretty much everyone from first skill

duel shios i dont think helps the slow rate, i think it just adds to the damage.

You should think again then... try with dual shios +1 and you will see the vast difference

[Migit]

So its agreed that Int has nothing to do with it..... I always thought it was AP on the staff....

[jfn7]

yes i was trying with 160int and 144int (for crystal set) and the result is the same

with my mage 80 i hit very very hard with 230mp and 144int and good rate slowdown
with my mage 59 i hit hard too with 160mp and 144int and also good rate too...


so i think 160int no need it in ice mage..

and i trying with shios +1 and +3, and yes help with damage and slowdown..

Staff AP determines a lot of tihngs for mages.

Shios3 / GE+8/9/10 etc is all you need to slow shitloads
Setup should be 160 INT, 120mp rest HP

The 160 INT is for the completes nothing else.

If you do any tests do them against a warrior. Since warriors are pretty much unstun / unslowable

So you'd be able to find your answers pretty quick.

don't peoples resists in ardream blow..? i find it kinda easy to slow there with a fire staff :P
should try it on high lvl warriors

Robin had glacier erenion +8 / shio +2 / lb +2 . He slowed like 85% of the people , when he sold his shio and got a rol +2 , he still slowed evryone, only his damage was way lower. But ice mage is ment to be a support mage so dmg doesn't matter much. All depends on ur playing style tho, no offence if you like damage ice build.

@ I got em

Both shio's +2 i guess? Else you won't make that kind of damage in dcz. I have fr +3/+2 and only hit 400-450, rarely higher.
