SP Farm now or at Cap?

Post by Havegooda »

So I've started playing again and I started another blader (<3 bladers). I've gotten up to 43 or so and began my gap a bit to fill in some skills that I missed and max everything out up to the current gap level.

Now, my question is, should I keep farming at Maongs and Bunwangs, or just leveling up as fast as I can and level at the cap?

Money's not too much of an issue, I still have a lot left over from when I used to play years ago.

Oh, and I don't have a ticket either. May get one eventually, but meh.

Thanks!

EDIT: Are the shield block skills still full of fail like I remember?

you will have to farm a few times before getting to cap it seems, because even if you skill as little as possible, you will end up having to go with at least a 4 gap as a blader.
But i wouldn't do it at the bunwangs or maongs since monsters like the penons have a much higher spawn.

they are really useful now.
You don't just stand around anymore and wait till your mp is down, it is 15 seconds of either phys. defence enhancement or blockate enhancement and you are still mobile.

Ok, I'll have a look into Penons and just 0 gap to there. I spent a lot of time there during 60 cap, lol.

Any other advice for a returning vet would be much appreciated :)

hm, it is best to level with either a 0-1 gap or farm with a 7-8-9 gap (level up without skilling to get a higher gap each time or- level skill level only then use cursed hearts to establish a high gap without having to continue leveling),
a gap in between will create a surreal boredom you won't want to experience..

that is why you should get a good weapon ( higher than +3, if you can afford it +5)
search places you can kill many mobs and die very rarely.
(kill many mobs= about 15 kills per minute (10 is godly for bladers :()

Spoiler!


it's an arduous path as a blader :soosad:

well, you should have farmed a bit at ongs, but i wont tell you what you should have done, but what yi think you should do.
I would 0 gap for now, only getting chains for blader, and maybe some others, knockdowns, arent really needed. Try to save up money, get a gap (7-9) and go to plvl, it will be a lot faster, or join some parties.

I got the rule since farming is easy at cap, first farm up to 1m in low lvl, like 400 - 800k at ongs, if possible, depends on build. Farm more for Warrior, Warlock, Blader, Nuker and special builds like Warrior/Warlock, Warrior/Rogue,Wizard/Warlock.
Even with 400k farming at ongs you have like 800k at 101... and i would just go 101 FF. After that farming is easy... :)

I'm staying longer at the ongs since i can do 60-85k a day here on rsro :sohappy:
Dlvl is not bad as long as you can get someone with lvl 1 reverse oblation and monsters that can kill you in 1 hit with that buff on.

At 101 you just have to get a good (at least +5 weapon) quickly, hope that you get an SON drop you can use.. and do as many quests as possible.
