About SP Farming, then leveling to 70 w/ a zero Level Gap

I want to farm a certain amount at Lv 16, then level straight up without a mastery level gap.

For those who have done it this way, about how much SP can you earn w/ a zero level gap, from Lv 16 to 70?

I'm considering this when I'm trying to figure out how much SP I'm going to farm. Thanks.

According to this site and my windows calculator, exactly 73,371 SP from the moment you hit 17 up until level 70 and 99.99%.

Dont forget Bake's number is considerably higher than your actual number, as it doesn't include questing xp or loss in xp from dying. I'd say it's closer to 60k, but no one can give you an exact number for those reasons so YMMV

dieing would get yuo more sp, not less. and yes the number would be about 65k

Just to be clear:

The number that Bakemaster gave me, about 73K, + quests and dying, which should equal to even a higher number right?

OMG why does everybody say lvl16 you should farm ur head off its only for the archers isn't it? couldn't players just farm on higher levels and still get the same result.

*oh yeah 300th post :D *

With SoS, farming at Den = fastest sp gain.

that really seem's kinda low? right now im 52, with fire/light/cold/glavie at 43. im doing a massive grind, so i can have a 0 lvl gap for fire/light/cold/glavie untill 64, and according to the calculator, im going to need 95k sp point's to lvl all the skill's i use. so 75k for lvl 16-70, that seem's very small.

I think they've excluded the amount of sp you get by doing a 0 lvl gap in that so you need to farm the 75k before you get to 17 be delevelling and maybe you just use a lot of skills and thats just 4 - 6 skills with imbue and 1 buff or something >.<

most people, however, don't have the patience to farm all of it at lvl 16 so they farm some at lvl 16 and then keep a smaller gap throughout than they otherwise wud have had to keep.

well i use 15. there all the passive's, fire imbue, 4 glavie attack's, and all the usefull buff's i can use.

I don't know, but you guys are making this confusing!

My question should pretty much be a CONSTANT number for everyone if they had a zero level gap and leveled on the same enemies.

For example, if by Lv 70, you require 200SP....and according to Bakemaster, you can get around 73K with a zero level gap from 16 on to 70, then that means you would need more or less about 127K at level 16.

Got my point now? :)


Now...just need to clear up if it is, in fact, about 73K. Thanks for all the feedback. I know you might look at this thread during the update today :)

Devotia is correct that if you do all your quests, you will get more exp and less sxp by the time you are 70 and 99.99%, and that every time you die you lose experience but not skill points. In my own opinion, it's silly to spend a month at level 16 so you can level up quickly, when instead you could level up quickly with a small gap and few skills, and then spend a month farming at level 60-70 instead.

use the calculator. set it so what lvl your mastery's are now, and what skill's you have, and what lvl they are. then set up what lvl you want your mastery's, and what skill's you want, and what lvl you expect them to be. hit calculate, then read the result's.

I did use the calculator, before I even posted this new thread. It's 222k. But that has nothing to do with how much sp you gain with a zero-level gap from 16-70.

So I'm thinking it would have to be about 150ish K SP before I moved on from Lv 16.

I don't think it's foolish at all. I've invested a lot in a bow and upgraded it very well. All of my gear is +3 int +3 str, along with good jewelry. Farming is fairly efficient with 1-shots.

I have a golden ticket and monkey...all for the purpose of sp farming at lv 16. I aim to be able to get 90% of the skills I want when I hit the exact level. I wouldn't have it any other way. Thanks for the help.

Quests above lvl 42 dont give SP xp, so you only gain 10% per quest done and no extra skil xp. 55-60k would be more accurate imo (it also depends on how much you die...)

My current build is 245k sp. Go figure.
However I have every skill in the heuksal tree and the bow tree.
I will try to get my bow up to 69 for a pwnage spell.

If you need 220k SP when you reach max lv that is lv70, then you should farm around 130k SP in lv16 then you can go with 0 lv gap all the way till lv70.

didnt even bother farming.... i just keep a smallish gap throughout the game... imo its more fun than staying in the bandit den shooting bandits throughout the day

I kept a lvl 5 gap, never do any quest. Currently lvl 20 with 1.8k sp after i use some of them for skills, etc...

If i use the calculator, i still found out i lack 10k sp at lvl 70...madness...
