i am lvl 64 and have a 9 gap and currently sp farming around 150k.

I would like the 3rd book of fire protection cos it looks cool :D

but il have to reduce my gap to 7 from 9.

Is this ok or will i lose a noticable amount of sp.

It'll definitely take a noticeably longer time with a 7 gap. It may be a few days, or a few weeks. But you will know the difference.

But if you wanted to level as well, I'd just recommend a 7 gap.

Each gap takes longer to do the more you increase it but the 9th gap is double the 8th, if you have a -9 it is equal to grinding the level 10 times with a 0 gao, every 10% you get is equal to 100% at 0 a gap, a -8 however is only like grinding a level 5 times and every 20% would be 100% at a 0 gap, just depends what you can stomache.

I wouldn't do -9's high level anymore, you'd seriously feel sick watching the exp meter change once every 10 kills and that's with a GT on.

Go for -8 instead, still get loads of sp, hardly anything less than 9 the only difference is the levels will pass twice as long as the -9 but that's a good thing.

A -9 at just 70 takes 91,000 sp, who wants to be the same level for that long lol

Gap is the difference between what lvl you are, - ur highest lvl mastery

say:
i am lvl 46
my bicheon is highest with 42
i have a 4 lvl gap

and higher gap = more sp but less xp
so if you want to get lots of sp then get a big gap like 5-9
and if you want to gain alot of xp, then lower ur gap to like 4-0
0 gapping is great lol
i hope that helped you

depends on your current weapon
if you have a nice sos then keep the 9 gap
if you don`t have a nice weapon (talking about at least +7) just close the gap and plan your long farm for another level
