Is there any difference at all in a 9 gap and 10 gap/11 gap/etc? I've heard they were exactly the same but then I've heard higher gaps give less exp. Anyone know for sure?

There's no difference between 9 gap and 10 gap. Ull earn the exact amount of sp/exp at any gap higher than 9 gap as you would at 9 gap. I tested this one before when i was farming around lvl 16 w/ lvl 7 skills. When i hit lvl 17 (i was a noob back then and wanted to use my lvl 18 bow anyways) i tried kiling archers at 10 gap then went to 9 gap and found its the exact same sp/exp.

But isn't it true that as your level gets higher the same mob gives off less xp/sxp? I'm pretty sure I got more sxp at 16 with 9 gap than at 17 with 10 gap grinding archers.

xp per kill = EXP-((Gap*.1)*EXP) where EXP is the amount with gap 0
sp per kill = SP+(SP*(Gap*.1)) where SP is the amount with gap 0

If you were able to have more than a 9 gap, you'd recieve 0 or even negative experience per kill.

Woops i worded that wrong. What i meant to say is i got the same exp/sxp at lvl 17 w/ 10 gap than i did at lvl 17 w/ 9 gap.
