Yet another farming question

Pake1 · Post by **Pake1** » Sun Jul 16, 2006 4:00 am

Hey guys using a silver ticket allows me to get about 1000 sp a day.. based on my level of play, this is about an hour/90min at a time. I'm getting pretty discouraged of farming, but I can't let my sosun go to waste! Farming anxiety?

My questions are: What difference does a gold ticket over a silver ticket make based on farming rate (other than the obvious additional 50/100% exp)

A fellow farmer farmed 85k in 5 weeks, which equals to about at least 2k sp a day, moreover to about 3k a day? Will i be able to reach this with a gold ticket?

Why do people say 30kis so hard to get, it's pretty simple =)? And why do people say only 30k?

1. Gold scrolls have 40% higher experience bonus over silver scrolls. So it's just easier to think of it like this, however much sp you get in three hours without a scroll, double that and you'd get a decent estimate of how well a gold scroll works.

2. If you grind the whole three hours on the gold scroll you might make it to 2 or 3k.

3. Some people don't have the advantage of being able to get silk (me lol) so they get less than 30k sp a day farming. And to get 30k sp is a good 30-40 days. That's a lot of work lol.

The leader of one of the guilds in my union was hacked. He doesn't recall his secret answer, so he's starting over and sp farming a bunch. He says he can get 6-7k a day. Probably about half of that is one the scrolll. With an SOS +3 bow, I can get around 500 sp an hour farming so double that with scroll.

I currently got the silver ticket, with about a week and a day left (because of the compensation event), 1000 a day is ok i guess, its sort of a quota i try to make. 2000 would be it when i get the gold ticket after this one is done. 6-7k a day would mean a buttload of delvleing a day, and 3 hours of pure bandit farming would only equal up to 2900-3190 sbased on my tickets.

going for that 90k mark, i just want to level up to 60 on the 0 level gap =)

IMO you only need your bow to be strong enough to 1-shot bandits for now. If you can' t 1-shot yet and don't want to risk upgrading just get more str+int eq. Of course you can also just upgrade it to +5 if you intend to use it pass the lvl 24 bow. I'm lvl 28 and I'm still using my SOM+6 lvl 16 bow since it equals a lvl 24 sos+3. I also got 20%(100%) AR increase and max block ratio on it. Play around with alchemy with your bow. It's worth it when you see the final product. =)

As for farming, when you get to the 1-shot stage, you should be able to get 1150 sp per hour with gold ticket. Just control+click everything in sight and if a bandit giant spawns (not bandit archer giant), hit that with zerk too.

Then again the sp you manage to farm and hour depends on how crowded the place is. In my case, most people didn't stay around my area long after getting fed up of my 1-shot killing all the mobs around.
