quick question

Post by noviolence4u »

i know that you can down level your character, but can you down level your skill mastery too? im asking because im going to farm when i hit level 16, so i need to keep my mastery level at 7 to have the right level gap for when im level 16 and im leveling up so slowly because of the gap its gonna take me a long time to go from level 13 to 16. and if i can level my mastery to my actual level, ill level up faster.

once you are level 20 you can take a quest from pot seller of every town which gives you a potion in reward to delevel your skills and masteries

Why would you want to level faster? The point in SP farming is to gain more SP, not level...

keep "farming" until you get to 16, at lvl 16 you will have a 9 gap because of your lvl 7 masteries. that is when your REAL farming starts. if you manage to level to 17, just de-level to 16 again and keep farming.

just remember to keep your masteries at lvl 7.

plus if you think leveling from 13-16 takes a long time, holy jesus you are FARKED for the "higher" levels.

If u want to get to lvl 16 fast, get ur masteries at lvl 0 gap but DONT EVER level ur skills.

Then lvl to like 20, do quest as many times to reduce to lvl 7 mastery.
either way is better coz ull be much stronger if u lvl to 20 and delevelto 16 back.

i dont understand if youre getting to level 20 why you wouldnt level your skills and only mastery...


wouldnt you level your skills so you attack stronger and gain levels faster? i mean if you delevel your mastery when you reach 20 you will still have the skills you just wont be able to use them.

dude if you get bored because you lvl up slow, then farming is not for you. hell this game is not for you lol. At 16 with 9 lvl gap, it will take you atleast 3 hours straight up playing to even lvl up at 17 and that if you use GT. if you dont use GT it will take you 5-6hours to lvl to lvl up to 17 with 9 lvl gap.

Now imagine having to de-lvl back to 16 0% which will take about 30-40min maybe less if someone is helping you rez. then farming again for sp and 3 hours later your lvl 17 and do the same thing again.

Now imagine having to farm 50k to 100k SP. playing straight up 3 hours a day and doing what i said above. can you really take that pain? From your post i can tell that you are not ready to sp farm.

If this is your first char, do not sp farm, just make a crap build and get into the game, once you get into it the monotony of the game will go away and then make a 2nd build and do what you wanted to do.
