sol, ill need 210k SP for my build, seeing as you get 70k from lvl 20-70 with no gap and with a 5 lvls gap you get 3x more SP (70kx3=210k)
is it worth it to just lvl normally like this?
and something i just dont get it, why do pl farm SP at such a low lvl? (16)
wouldnt the job be done much fster if the farming started later? like, much more SP/time?
if lvling with a gap of 5 lvls all the time i was thinking about farming SP like lvl 30 or maybe 40 to get everything i need, bad idea?

Well
its never a bad idea to go and do some farming, but never at a lvl 5
mastery gap, you might as well go all out for a 9 lvl gap

you also have to keep in mind that if you do quests, you get less sp, also along the way u might decide to get some extras for fun which cost you more sp.... so on and so forth.....
lvling with a 5 gap will get really painful probably around lvl 5x-6x (of course worse and worse as u get past).
but a lot of ppl can't stand to farm at the 9 gap becuz of the complete lack of lvling associated with it.
in the end i suggest lvling at a 9 gap until you can't stand it then reduce the gap and lvl some then reopen the gap. as long as you farm a lil bit more than you lvl, should be ok.

what about leaving the farming for later? wont i spend less overall farming time that way? like, wont i get a LOT more SP/kill if i do it past lvl 30 or maybe 40?(at a 9 lvls gap)
btw its a real pain to get this gap going, i have only a 2 lvls gap right now and struggling to get my 3rd -.-
EDIT:minor fix

I think that the best solution for ppl like you and me, keep a 4 gap... if you can... when you get to high lvls farm on hgher mobs like penon fighters... they have a high spawn rate ot r farm in the caves, they are now less full, the bots moved to takla makla or however that is called.

I disagree.
Whenever I need to catchup on skills, a 4-6 lvl gap works fine.
9 lvl gap= I get bored/quit temporarly.
