Hello, I started playing Silkroad R, and I wonder , will I still need to leave ~5-9 levels gap between my skills and my level to be sure later I will have enough SP for my skills ?

It is less needy for farming for sure and quests give a Lot more sp than before, so give them a try.
Edit: Try doing forgotten world runs too, The uniques in forgotten world can drop "faded beads" which gives from 200 sp up to 8k sp for each bead.

So I can learn skills up to my lvl w/o leaving level/skill cap ?

I would recommend leaving a ~ 3 gap, That shouldn't make you many problems with skill points, Sro isn't meant for 0 gap :3
and well don't get every single skill, some skills you don't really need.

i am lv 30 with 5 gap 4051 sp left so i think 3-4 gap will do fine, no need for 5 or more gap

Quests are very balanced in giving xp and sp. I level up only skills I need and I'm still 0 gap with over 1000 spare SP. At level 30 before I'd have to compromise big time.

I calculated and my build, Heuksal/fire/ice/light needs 30% less sp than in isro with build heuksal/ice/light. So, if you make build with all forces (fire, light and ice) you need 30% less sp than in isro with only 2 force masteries. And some1 said that xp requirement to lvl up is 30% lower.

Forgotten world bosses drop seeds that can give a ton of SP.
its pretty easy too level actually, you get a free 5 hour 100% blessing everyday, fire/ice/light all count as one skill level (ex. level light to 15, ice and fire automatically level to 15 as well). so you have all 3 trees unlocked + your weapon skill.

yes...
force is now called recovery, and its on a different tab on adifferent skill tree...
ice/fire/light is now called force and you only have to lvl up ONE mastery and you get to choose your skills from all 3 fire/ice/light

Meaning if we level fire to 15, we get to pick skills of all 3 trees? Can we max all skills in all trees as well?
If the answer to that is no, then how does the skill limitation works?
If the answer to that is yes, how is the sp requirement to max out skills in all trees? I assume if you level your skill to 15 and get to have skills in all trees, eventually ppl will want to have everything in the trees... ICE/LIGHT/FIRE/FORCE and if they hasn't change the sp requirement for the trees... Wouldn't that means we will need to farm alot?
The answer is "yes".
You only have one mastery to level up (the one called Force now), and you'll be able to get skills from both Fire, Light and Cold.
The amount of sp it takes to upgrade one skill, however, has been decreased so even if you have skills from all three force trees, you still don't need to "farm".
As other people already said, if you keep a 2-3 gap and do Forgotten World runs, you'll be fine. It's really lovely!

You are doing 2* runs? Cause we only got like 600 SP at max from these items in FGW. Not counting the exp/sp from the uniques though, but it was pretty nice too and everyone in our 3-man pt for the 1* run got more than 50%. I guess at lv.42+ we'll do some 2* runs too, but at lv.3X it's just not really possible to do 2* togui village runs. But at lv.42 with my sun staff and a good pt it should work definitely.
Anyway it's not that hard to get yourself farmed. So far i had gap 4 or 5 at max and i can easily make wizard and cleric FF on Lv.36. Also even with a gap you are leveling quite fast and the quests are helping a lot too. For some quests you get more than 1k sp at lv.3X. And combined with the lower SP requirements it's really a lot.

When you grind at +35 level mobs, you will start to see forgotten world pillars (Looks like a red diamond), when you destroy it, it will summon ~ 7 Envy mobs, they are champion mobs btw and would be harder to kill than surrounding mobs in most cases.
Anyway shouldn't be too hard to kill them if you are buffed or a bit careful, When the "Envies" get killed, they have a chance to drop Forgotten world Holes.
Just use a "hole" in a town and it will summon a teleporter that leads you to the Forgotten world map.
The level of the forgotten world is written on the forgotten world holes (the numbers of squares/stars on it).
Level 1 = Normal mobs.
Level 2 = Champion mobs.
level 3,4 (only high level dimension pillars can drop them from Envies) = Elite mobs.
1 star is fairly easy to do it alone, 2 star can be done alone with good gear/skill [Not ingame skills

], but it is easier to do it in a party.
3-4 are impossible to be done alone and needs a good party.
There are many mini-uniques in Fgw and 1 last powerful unique (After you defeat every other unique it gets summoned) that unique can summon the other mini-uniques you killed before.
You can enter a fgw only once every 5 hours.
1 last thing:
Every fgw got 2 treasure boxes in a fixed place, when you destroy those boxes, you get a chance for them to drop tailsmans, when you collect 8 different kinds of tailsmans you can trade them with an Npc for a Sun weapon of your choice.
Generally the last two tailsmans of the 8 are the rarest.
There are different maps of fgw, each with there own set of tailsmans and their own prizes to collect the 8.
Example:
Togui village fgw = 8D sun weapon of choice for collecting the 8 tailsmans for it.
Flame mountain fgw = 9D sun weapon of choice.
90-100 Shipwreck = 10D Seal of moon weapon of choice.
101-110 Shipwreck (different map) = 11D Seal of Nova weapon (A grade) of choice for collecting the 8 tailsmans for it.

Not, he did 1* runs. I guess he is counting both the sp from the items, and from the uniques, though
I can't wait to get to do my first run!

Those are not needed in any way. You might as well just exclude these alchemy materials from picking at the grab pet settings. That's what i did and i try to tell it everyone in my pts, as it's annoying to drop all that useless garbage.

You still can craft the stones for your gear. The uhh.. buff ones. Except it costs way too many tokens.

Well. As tablets doesn't seem to drop anymore, you don't need alchemy material to pimp your gear and weapon.
However, it seems that you need it for your job set.

So I should use Void bottles to get Elements from those materials, and keep them untill i need them.
Which level materials I should keep ? all or 3rd grade and higher?
