The time I've been dreading* for so long has come. I'm about to cap my blader and I must farm although I just want to pvp with my 90 stab. I was actually considering farming with Premium PLUS, gold ticket, but the twist is with a 0 gap. Anyone who does this and grinds the 5 hours at 85/87 mobs, how much SP do you get per month?

I mean If im getting like 50K-100K a month from 5 hours of Prem PLUS and SPGT, then I will maintain the 0 gap, if not. Then I will have to open up a 5 gap and start farming.

BTW I need 300K SP.

You'll get get 30k sp just from the fruit quests, so that leaves 20-70k sp left, and ull get that no problem with 5hrs daily and SPGT over 1 month.

i need 375k sp to get xbow/dagger and bard to 90

Needs 572k here and just started farming 9 gap

You'll be done before OTG, farming on a 0 gap takes forever I wouldn't advise doing it.

So much no wai! >.>

I'd go with a 5 gap anyway...Just do it in a shared pt (if you can find one) and it'll go fast enough.

Well I always grind in 4-8 8 man parties. So I was thinking for that reason I would farm faster.

focus on farming dude,go with 9gap and farm1-2-3months and than have fun...90blader even if with 9gap can do good in PVP/JW

9gap ftw =) dont wast time pvping.
be like a bot. traing traing traing =D then after finish farm go and pvp and zerk and kill them all

Just farm 9 gap till you have enuf sp for 2 of your masteries 90. I'm assuming you have 90 fire 90 bich and some other shit. Farm for the basics, use PGT+ afterwards to get the last 100k or so (2 months 0 gapped will give you about that much (60K from quests+ 3k+ a day depending on grind speed)).

3k+ a day on 0 gap? You gotta be kidding me...

You say it yourself...24/7, no one is able to do that >.>

What if I 5 gap it? I mean my fire and bicheon are full maxed to 85 already. I just need to farm for force or cold (still deciding which one). I dont want a 9 gap because I lose out on my 85 Knockdown skill and if I 0 gap I gain the 90 stab skill.

5 would be wayyyy faster, after 5 gap (or maybe 6) SP per kill stays the same and only exp is reduced.

That's 9 gap and it will stay the same but thats alright.

Well once I hit 90 I don't really care much about exp. So what is the difference between a 0 gap farm and a 5 gap farm?

You don't get much SP per kill with a 0 gap, with a 5 gap you'll get maximum SP and skills will still only be 5 behind your level so you'll still kill quick if one day you're having to go solo through lack of finding a party.

I never lack finding a party. So what you are saying is lets say I get 200 exp sp per kill with a 0 gap. So with a 5 gap Id get like 300 exp sp? What about with 9 gap? SO the difference between a 5 and 9 gap is the amount of EXP you get but not the SP? Meaning when you have a 9 gap you level slower but get more SP within that level?

MEANING if you are capped, then 5 gap would make much more sense wouldn't it?

Ofcourse..if you want sp more than exp >.>

http://www.nivlam.com/sp shows you a chart with all the sp per lvl on each gap (between 0 and 9)

I got on a friends char (90 with 0 gap) 133 (or 155) sp exp per rocky..So on a dual ticket that would be time 3 = 399 (or 465) per normal rocky. That's not that bad...It's 1 sp or just over 1 sp a kill on rocky's then. But with a 5 gap that would be like...close to 2 sp each.

I grind at 85/87. Can you try the exp on those? Just to see what it's like.

i guess farming with gap 0 with P+ and skill ticket
is close to farming gap9 with p+ only

I decided that I will farm with a 5 gap. Thanks to all those who input their ideas and knockledge.
