    Don't bother. Use that money for refining your fists higher. Spark/Axes/Cloud/HF/Fist or Fist/Spark/Autoattack seems to be the extent of your wisdom, so getting either Sage/Demon cultivation's skill books would be a crappy idea for someone who obviously doesn't know how the skills work to begin with.

    Demon is widely accepted as the better culti path with sage being kind of a joke, however with the loss of CCing skill sage became slightly more valid.

    How about chilling on the caps lock and telling us if pvp or pve is your endgmae goal?

    Basically the argument is for pve BMs will have enough defense to tank anything they want, even WBs, so there is little point in the dmg reduction of a triple spark. Skill wise the demon HF is better as well as Drake Bashs 7.5 second stun and Roar of the prides 6 second never miss aoe stun. Sage bell is considered better by most for giving slightly more pdef, however demon bell gives 15 seconds of 75% increased defense and is considered better for skilled players. Demon marrows are more balanced. Sage weapon mastery is slightly better but with endgame gear its about a 1% difference in dmg output. If you use cyclone heel anymore, sage lasts longer. Sage Fissure combined with a wizards DB is win in delta, however it will more than likely get the wiz killed also. You will be more wanted in squads with the 25% aps increase of demon spark, that being the biggest pve reason.

    For pvp, the sage chi skill is nice, although a demon BM can take the chi off twice as fast as a sage can put it on.

    http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1059661 this was a decent enough argument as well as some in the stickied faqs, just remember to ignore any benefits demon had from CCing now.

    Buying skill book at 68 is just dumb. Invest that money in merchanting then cash out for more books once you are at 9X.
