SOSUN LVL 16 Farmer question

Pake1 · Post by **Pake1** » Thu Jul 20, 2006 9:10 am

So i'm in the hardcore farming process. Knowing the ins and outs of the farming/delevling process on my way to a 0 level gap until 60. But I have only one question. When can I ever 1 shot bandit archers w/o imbue?? I've seen accounts on ebay being sold with sos bow lvl 16 + 5, claiming that they 1 shot bandits w.o imbue! I have a sosun +3 = sos + 13!!!! I have the str eqs ( I have +27 str and +10 int), and please don't tell me to +5 it, I got this thing to +3 after a failed +4 attempt, and i'm not gonan touch it again.

My char is pure str.

My bow as follows;

since then I have +2 int on it.
No more tabs on it anymore. I got durability (100%) man!

most of the chars that claim to 1hit archers leveled up all the way to 21 (or higher) and then deleved back to 16 (while still maintaining the 9 gap ofc with mastery max 7). the added str statpoints and gained phy att power from it will help increase your chances to 1hit archers, but without the imbue i'm not 100% sure. but since you're pure str with +27str and sosun +3 you should be popping every single mob in the den with a single shot, even if it is with imbue.

just control click and constantly press imbue hotkey

What's wrong with pressing the imbue button as well? I don't think you'll ever one hit them with a regular shot unless it's a critical, even if you get to lvl 23 and delvl back to 16.

if u set stat points and delevel then, the effect will be removed. when u lvl up again, u can't set stat points any more.

example:

16->17: u put only in str -> ur hp increases and mp increaes (+1 automatical).

now u delevel back to 16. ur hp decreases the same amout, also mp.

if u hit 17 again, u can't set stat points anymore. if u put them in str the 1st time, they will stay there.

so u got no advantages after u deleveled (i tried it).

But the 3 points you added stay. You only lose the 2 that are automatically allocated (1 to int, 1 to str)

That's how people get 130% balances at 16, level way up and delevel back down.

wait, so for farmers, u level up to like lvl 21, with all your stats, then de-level? but isit possible to keep the stats you've added?

My experiences i had with delvling. I seem to lose the added 3 str, but seem to keep the extra +1 +int =str allocated (not completely sure about this). Whenever i delvl, my hp and mp decreases, as well as my rate to 1 shot the archers. I 1 shot archers more constantly at lvl 18 than at 16 (with imbue). Since i'm a pure str, the only people that do beat me at ksing is pure ints, so if a pure int is there i can barely ks him, bt if its a regular sos user, i ks them to death xD. I'm just gonna look for more int tabs and stones.

What the hell is lvling/grinding/farming now?, a brainless unshamed KSING competition?

What side of "KS is unfair" didn't you understand?

Set farming timing to how much sp can you earn each amount of time invested in farming, do not set it to how much you can KS compare to INT builds :banghead:

Boohoo, so what if I ks. Am i hurting your feelings?

i don't care if its unfair.

Bandit dens are always crowded, and its always the one with the better bow and fastest hands that can farm more efficiently.

How did this turn into a discussion about farming time?

Nothing else to add at your post, it talks by itself.

Take look at your posts if you want to know why this thread became in a KS discussion.

Well first of all the amount of hp/mp you get from each point of str/int is level dependant, so of course a lvl 16 with the same stats as a lvl 17 will have slightly less hp/mp. And yeah lvl does affect damage, I sorta doubt it's just the extra hit ratio you get per lvl as well.

And naturally, it's common for the den to a ksing zone, even high lvls go there to hunt tg and sometimes ks here and there...it's a real bandits den

so do i need to level up to 21 then delevel back down? or should i jst stay at 16 all the time ?

Basically, what i do is farm at the den until the archers turn blue. Which is about lvl 19, then delvl back to 16. Once you hit the 19 mark, dlvl back to 16. A personal resser is the best way, but you can always ge/make some tablet of breezes and delvl yourself, but that takes wayyy too long.

Lance · Post by **Lance** » Fri Jul 21, 2006 6:34 pm

farm archers? Hmmm, i thought ppl farmed bandits?

so its inside that place where you get the stolen sword right?

Cavalier · Post by **Cavalier** » Fri Jul 21, 2006 6:40 pm

You can farm both Bandits and Archers at the instant spawn place
