Err, hi. I'm a lvl 75 blader. Gap is 0, but all the skills are at lvl68, except flying stone lvl1 and lighting chain lvl1. I was thinking to lvl up to 77, then gap 9 farming, but I've been thinking about lvling up to lvl80, and then all skills at 71 gap 9 farming, which would allow me to use flying stone. Bleed is very useful for party mobs, but I dont know will u gain very less sp at lvl80.

Summary:

1) lvl77, skills at 69, gap 9 farming
2) lvl80, skills at 71, gap 9 farming with bleed.

Which one is better? Will I gain more sp/3hrs at lvl80 or at lvl77?

Oh, and I do have enough sp to lvl up the skills 68->71.

dont sp farm alone so the whole party thing is not that important, because you get help anyway you simply will be less effective in the group so make sure you stay awake and take care on the tanking part

+1 I take offense to that and I fit the "Arian Race". It doesn't matter, because I find it offensive either way. It's like someone with the Forum Name with the N word or a stereotypical or racist name.

On Topic: 80 because at least you can have fun with Bleed.

I'm in a guild full of bladers. My fellas have been farming at 77, gap 9. It proved party grinding is a total waste of PT/SPT. They both took maximum 2k sp/3hrs, while alone it's 3k-3.5k. So I'm gonna grind alone, either on 77 or 80.

At lvl80, I will kill way more faster, but I'll gain less per kill.
At lvl77, I am slower with the killing, but the gain is better.

What I wanna know is what will be more effective, so please, dont guess. I need opinion of those who have tried either way.

well that actually makes no sense, cause blader has the lowest dmg and kills the slowest, if you can get into a GOOD 8man general with nukers, archers, and glaviers and a cleric buffer the exp should be a lot better than solo.

IMO, you should farm at as low lv as possible. EG: Lv72 coz, this is where the time we get 8d 3rd tier weapon, once you had pimp the weapon to +5 or +7 , you can easily kill lv73-lv74 monster . I mean white mobs or orange and you will killing fast and earn decent sxp/exp.
Since you are already surpass lv72, you should go and do some research regarding which monster has nice spawn rate , less bot and the mob is white colour or green and so on..

i am not guessing, share pt: at least 4 nukers or even better with euro int based builds.
you will gain more at 77 if you use a sun, lower level, decent damage with a good party will give you more than solo at any coming level.

Work your way up to a 7 Gap at 80....Lv 73 masteries.

With 7 Gap you get 2 advantages, which you don't have with a 9 gap.

-Lv 72 9% Fire Buff
-Lv 73 Lightning Chain
Orotiagito - Lv 92 Pure Str Blader
Oreo_7 - Lv 80 Pure Str 2h-Warrior/Cleric
Eurotiagito - Lv 61 Pure Int Wizard/Cleric

Oh trust me, most of the share parties suck bigtime, cuz so many leechers/botswithsuckyweaps/noobs. A guildie lvl77 tried party grinding, and it's no good for farm. He gains more in a distro party. Oh he has a sun blade. So do I.

The very best gain is in a good party, which is hard to find. My job in a party is to lure, not to grind. The thing I dislike in party grinding is too many factors changing my income. That's why I like it on my own. Still, I'll test it all. If I decide for party farm, it'll be 77. If it's soloing, then it's 80. Am I right?

Gap 7 and gap 9 is a drastic difference in sp gain. Tho I love lightning chain.

Farm at 77. Why? The dmg difference between 69 and 71 skills is irrelevant, but you will get way more sp and xp killing generals at 77 than at 80, you would also get way more in a party 8 level 78-80s because of the double xp deal, compared to the xp at 80, when you party with a bunch of lvl 80's.

At 77, you can efficiently farm on hunters, which are way easier to kill than generals and their eviL block and stun crap. At 80 you will get crappy xp from hunters and will have to deal with the block and stun all the time.

That's interesting... Wow!
At 77, should I be soloing pt mob hunters, or share xp pt would be better? Would u get more then 3k sp/3hrs by doing this? Did u farm this way?

another question here.. Full farm lv76 ( bicheon 76, fire 76 , lightning 76, ice 60 ) and full farm lv80 ( bicheon 80, lightning 80 , ice 60, fire 80 ). Is there any difference between lv 76and lv80. Coz i dunt want to be full farm lv80 but lv76. It is because when ISRO release 90 cap and 9d weapon, i can use the Lv85 3rd tier 9D weapon to SP farm. Get what am i trying to say??

77 for the reasons listed already.

Mainly due to the fact that if your 77, it raises the chance that your grinding pt's average level is below the mobs level and you will get double exp/sp from party mobs.

Ok, situation. You off grinding on lvl 77 mobs in a exp share party full of 6 lvl 77 chars, a lvl 76 character and you.

Now if you were level 80, he average level of the pt is 6 x 77 + 76 + 80 / 8 = 77.25

Now thats > 77 so you only get 4x the exp from pt mobs ( i think it works like this, thought it may have to be 78 for it to work, i need citation on that )

Now if you were level 77, the average level of the pt = 77 x 7 + 76 / 8 =
76.87500

Now thats < 77 = you get 8 times the exp from a party mob when in a share party.

The lower level you are, the greater chance that you will be in a party that will get this extra bonus. And to be honest you'd prob grind on the same mobs anyway..

Farming with a gap < 9 is just a pain. Don't do it.

Either it's 0 gap, or it's 9 gap imo.
