Do quests or not while farming?

Post by MaRcG11 »

So im 58, heuksal at 55 and forces at 47. My plan is to lvl up til 60, then raise heuksal to 58 and then level up til 65. I should have enough sp to put my forces at 58. Finally, level with a 7 gap til 69, that should get enough sp to level all at 70 (except light a 62).

So, Should i do quests to speed up leveling?

I'd say go ahead and do the quests, it makes farming that little bit less more.

If you have enough SP to get to 58 before you farm, then the quicker the better.

Sure, they'll be a nice distraction from the regular daily based farming.

Are you farming or gaping? Because, if you're just gaping, then quests are ultimate-xp for leveling.

Looks like your doing the exact same thing I did,all my masteries are at 60 and im lvl 67,working on all the quests in the 60's,and the new ones for takla,makes lvling up a bit faster,and then you get more sp in the long run :) i only have 30k more sp to farm :P yay

Lets say you get 450 sp per kill where you farm. And unless your going to get a new skill/weap at the next level, then when you get the that level, you will get ~430, due to the fact that you are relativly the same skill in killing ability, thefore must kill the same mob you did at the last lvl.

112.5 SP per 100(same level) compared to 107.5 per 100(next level).
If your farming to say, 25000 sp, then
~22222 kills of that level when you get 450 sp per kill(non gt)
~23255 kills of that next level when you get 450 sp per kill(non gt)
THIS DOES NOT TAKE INTO EFFECT THE QUESTS REWARD.

What does this all mean? Go ahead quest, it will be good for your health, you will have to kill more mobs depending on how much the quest gives you, but it will hopefully give you a break from endless farming.
