I was wondering wich skills should nix have for pvp terms. I know fleash ream is useful for damage as well as claw for power. However, i wonder if i should keep blessing of the pack or pounce since nix is a 1/2-shoot for some players.

Should i make nix forget any of those skills and teach her strong or protection? I appreciate any opinions or suggestions

    pounce is a wonderful move and it works great against all classes (where as bleed only works well against arcane and light armor) pounce can also be used for defense and offense. Start an attack with a surprise pounce and then lucky to make it a 5 second stun and nuke them b:victory (the extra .25 aps on your nix is also very helpful, causes caster to panic if they haven't faced too many nixes before).

    now if u where gonna get rid of blessings i would totally suggest strong because the nix already has high mag resistance.

    Very much keep pounce.

    Blessings of the pack? Hmmm. Yeah, if you're going to lose any of the skills; it would be that one. But what would you replace it with? None of the basic skills seem worth it.

    There was some talk of sacrifice being a possible (treating the nix as basically a one-cast spell)

    All the skills in comes with and add flesh ream.

    End of story.

    Pounce is crazy awesome to catch people trying to run from you.

    Dont know , maybe that we dont play in 2009 anymore . People have Rank 9 , refines to 9-12 and sharded with a buttload of DEF LVL Shards and Vit stones , and even a lvl 5 fleshream from lvl 105 buffed Nix will hardly only tick a charm and wont bring an arcane opponent down ??? Venos who rely half their time on their Nix are bound to get killed half the time.

    Nix is only powerful pre endgame PVP , but since most PVP servers are flooded with cashshoppers , ull hardly find bad geared people around , except if u like killing innocent low levels.

    @ OP : Keep Pounce , its a nice skill cause 1) adds a stun to your arsenal (60 sec may sound much but its better from nothing) 2) increases attack rate of nix 9which may actually let it do sth more than just charm ticking.


    Claw is necessary for obvious reasons.

    Blessing of the pack is ok . Even with others def buffs , Nix will still be 1 shotted by most AoEs at TW or world PK so no need to invest so much money at sth that wont bring much benefit.

    Fleshream is usually a PVP staple skill. If you want a strong debuff to affect your own skills , lvl 5 Howl (36% magic defence reduction ) is also recommended
