    in the end it comes down too opinion i believe. My seeker is a vit build ive always liked that but my friend went with a DD build much like the second build you have. ive beaten him in most duels we have but it could just be minor gear difference. of i had too chose id go with the first build the one with more vit.

    I vote the second build, but....on the second build....why 7 VIT?

    I mean it's just wasted points if you're only going to add 2 vit.

    Reshard hat to citrines on build 2; all those sapphire shards amount to 1% reduction (nothing at all if you get hit by OP mages), refine your ornaments more and get much better mdef than by sharding. Get a cube ornament if you can afford to, or farm one yourself.

    Personally, if your sharding HP then str build for more dmg. Cause when your in the playing field of R9s, alot of pple end up a 1-3 shot D: might as well get that dmg in

    we already have the defense levels, and since we arent barbs, i would focus on using the stats for something i cannot compensate with shards. (because 2 sockets on weapon just isnt enough)

    Strength is a better build endgame, but until you're there you'll want the vit so you can still do "seeker things." Once you start putting refines on your equipment and decent shards you'll want to restat out the vit.

    I'd say aim to keep at least 10k hp, so every 800 hp over 10k pull out 50 vit. Or wait till you have 11.6k and pull 100 vit and put it into strength.

    I had about 115 vit in my build and restatted it for vit. Not that much loss in survivability, honestly, and I get much larger amounts back in paint heals. Also, things die muuuch quicker so overall I take alot less damage too.

    It looks like you share gear with a bm since your pants and helm are G15 but everything else is first tier Nirvana. I'd suggest going G16 on those pieces for the def boosts and higher refine rate. As for sapphire vs citrine shards (if you're not going to shard vit gems) I'd lean towards citrines. Our defense levels naturally work against magic damage. We're still weaker to it, but not as weak as a barb would be. Our defense levels also naturally expand the hp we have.

    I agree... Str is best at endgame but getting there is best to have some vit. Capped my vit at 80. Once I finish my endgame gear and refine it higher I'm gonna take some vit away. Still not sure how much but I like the numbers saku stated. (and no, I'm not laying lol)

    There is NO BEST endgame build between strength and vit...its all personal preference and how you want to play. my advise for you is to lvl up your seeker to endgame first then when you're endgame you'll realize which build fits your play style better. Now for leveling up an hybrid between vit and strength is always good

    It all depends on what you're planning on doing with the character. But I would say that some vit is needed until you get to the end-game stage... Just my opinion.

    The best built depends on what you are comfortable with and your gears, for example:

    T3 dual sword/blade: Str built, because you want to get those damages off. But some maybe comfortable surviving hits.

    R9: Vit built if you want your kills to be dependent on zerk critis. But some may argue that damage is more important and yes, it does nerf your damage significantly to be pure vit.

    As a seeker, I'm really aware of my hp being too low and attack being too low, so I would find a comfortable cap to your vit like (50 or 100 or so on). Btw, don't expect to survive those heavy magic attacks with str built, those depend on your timing to pop a magic charm to nullify the damage.

    But I would go with choice 1, 7.5k hp is not bad and defense is quite average, and I would worry more about my damage.

    There is no good there is no evil in this world. Indeed its all our immagination.

    However when you have +12 HA, Those 150 or so vit points will add like 10% health while they could add like 30% damage in str. When you have low refines they add very significant health.
    So if you want to be practical instead of philosophical, i agree with those that say str is the best end game build.

    At this point however he is not at end game and vit is a very decent choise.

    Not this again. THERE'S NO SUCH BUILD AS AN AWESOME BUILD.
    So, don't go saying str build is best.........
    Some ppl think crit build(NOT DEX BUILD) is best while others think strength build is best.....Some ppl wanna crit every other attack while others have to pray to every gods out there for a crit....... Its all your preference
