I am currently saving up for my C grade stuff..

i am a Nuker by trade , so am looking for best DD set..i currently have Knowledge set.

I see Demon set gives +4 Int with a HP decrease..will this be my best solution.. i have no knowledge of how much +4 Int will do damage wise..any info appreciated.

on my sps, i had demon for the +4 int, but then did a -2 int +2 men, net effect was a +2 int +1 men setup. at +2, the additional m atk was about 30 points if iirc. at level 49

My main concern is whether +4 Int on demon is better than 10% bonus on Knowledge..but i guess that would depend on weapon,

You should get Demon and +4 INT on any nuker.

+4INT is around 20% more matk, roughly +8-10% damage. About twice as good as the Knowledge set.

You would want to get Karmian set though, and keep demon set for the mobs you just need a little more damage to kill.

I use Demon and it's pretty significantly better. I have a healer with me at all times though. :)

It really depends on what you want to do?
Demon set is meant for nukers who want to PVE(extra attack)
Karmian Set is meant for nukers who want to PVP (extra mp)
I currently have Karmian set because I want to be pvping more with my nuker, thats why I made her.
Either way they are both good sets! :D

If you want to go the DD way demon is definetly the way to go, most nukers (including me) save it even after C grade, mostly for raids but sometimes it can come in handy in some normal pve spots.

However the -hp does make it dangerous and thus you should probably try to duo or group the first few levels of C grade. You can solo with it very well, but you just have to be that extra bit carefull.

That was already erroneous at its implementation. l2p (http://l2p.bravehoust.com) tends to be more reliable.

To answer the OP's question: Yes, four points of int are worth more than a set bonus of 10%.

For me it was rather 15-16% more M.Atk. Still way better then Knowledge.
