Can't Decide ... Help please

Post by AnarChaos »

Well... I have a glaiver char. I have been farming SP for being 90 fufa since i am 82 level. I need 250k SP for 90 level. I am 88 level with 6 gap now. Until now i made 212k SP. I have premium plus and SP ticket. I will have 20k SP more from unfinished premium quests. I assume that I will have 250k sp when the quests finished.

I need around 750k SP from 90 lvl fufa to 100 lvl fufa. So if i keep farming I should have farm 1m SP in total.

Here is my question:

Should I go on farmming and keep my level at 90 with 8 gap or should i give up farming and farm at 100 lvl with 9 gap.

If i continue to farm, all sox items will be owned by closet botters and I will loose the chance of having them as I cant afford to pay for one.

If I don't continue to farm, I will not have enough SP and have a weak char. And also I am not sure if it is possible to farm in the new cave with all that high level monsters while having a big gap.

I am so confused. I appreciate all your help and thank you in advance.

PEACE

If you don't mind being at a 9 gap at the very end (like lvl 98 99 and 100) then I would close the gap now, lvl up your skills, and plan to farm for 100 cap with a high gap near the end. This way you can still have decently high lvl skills, you can grind on green or gray mobs so that you get drops more often, and you might be able to get a sun :).

Question is, will you have enough SP to be fully farmed 90 when new cap comes out (probably in few weeks). I read that you have the two premium quests to turn in still (which rocks btw), but if the cap were to come out in the middle of march, would you have them both done? Cause even if you have 0 sp after lvling all your skills, if you're still full farmed 90, then you're set :)

Hmmm.. Thanks for your reply.. Maybe i should do this:

1) Farm enough sp for 91 lvl fufa.
2) Level up all my skills and masteries to 91
3) As I level up, i can level up my masteries but not my skills. By this way I will not have to delevel my skills and get 100 lvl faster.
4) After getting 100 lvl, i can delevel my masteries to 91 and start to sp farm with 9 gap.

What do you think about this?

As long as you aren't bored being lvl 100 and not getting xp, then there is nothing wrong with it. Only thing is you won't get the greatest SP, since you'd be higher than the mobs (by 1 or 2 lvls). It would be like being 90 with a 9 gap, farming on 88 or 87 mobs. It still gets the job done, its just not the most efficient method. Gives you a better chance to get higher lvl drops though, which will be worth a ton the first month or more of the cap.

How much SP over 250k would you need to be FF 91?

Damn... I am farked up mate. The previous calculations i made was totally wrong. I recalculated SP amount I need. Forget all figures above. Here is the amounts of SP I need for certain levels:

90 lvl: 397,014
91 lvl: 443,241
100 lvl: 1,082,407

Damn.. I am really farked up. Don't know what to do :(

I have 212k + 20k will come with prem quests = 232k in total for now :banghead:

Okay, first off, how much SP do you currently get per day (avg), not including the 20k bonus sp from the premium plus turn in?

Here is why I ask.

You still have till March 17th (or maybe later) to get the SP. To get 90 FF you need another 147k SP, or 127k SP with the 20k additional from the Premium Plus. That's an average of 7,350 sp a day. For FF 91, that would be 170k additional SP (again with 20k from prem +), that calculates to 8,500 SP per day.

imo you should farm at the physical mobs in the cave since you would take considerably less damage than fighting the magic/melee mobsat mt roc, but i would farm up until the update comes, maybe a month so u can get maybe 50-100k more sp out of those mobs

Mate, I don't think I can get that amount of sp daily. :(

I am pretty active at pvp and jobbing. So I use every buff and skill I leveled up. I don't think to give any of them up.
