For me, I think there are two ways to sp farm:

> maintain a constant lvl gap throughout the game (5 lvl gap perhaps?)

or

> 9 lvl gap at 16 ~ 21 then delevel :roll: :D

Alright, the answer is hands down, no doubt about it, sp farming at level 13-17. That means to sp farm. Giving up levelling for the purpose of sp farming, grind your ass off hard at the low levels.

If you have a 5 gap and your levelling, then thats basically it, your levelling with a 5 gap oO, not really sp farming, just a sp boost.

The benefits of sp farming/grinding at those levels outwiegh anything at higher levels, and quite frankly anything higher suxx so bad omg...

You have left out two imnportant answers.

1. Farm at around 4x
2. Farm some at Lv 16 then finish farming around 4x

I did method #2 and so far it is working out wonderfully. Because, this way if I need a break from farming I whip out my 1mil hunter suit and just hunt a while. I can do this because being at 4x I can kill a lot of theives and help a lot of traders. If you want a break from farming at Lv 16 you can.. stall?

Exactly what i'm doing. SP farming is great, sure. But I don't have the persistence of a bot.

Im lvl36 now and farm at flowers (2 hits) and they give nearly 200 skill XP
the key rule in farming is easy and fast kill, so look for spots with good spawn rates and not crowded

depending on how much his gap was and his lv , cuz I doubt he's 5x atm , I think he did Maong and Bunwang perhaps flowers and spiders. I did Ujigi from lv 42 to 51 , they give awesome xp for each of those lvls and easy to kill too, but I wasn't farming.
I started at 47 , I didn't increase anything from there and I spent it all at 51 cause I wanted new weapon and now I am slowly getting my mastery down and farming @ ishade/hashade


=== edit ===
For people think ??? wtf ??? this guy quit , yes I have. a Friend of mine plays and it's annoying to type my friend is gonna do this and that so I just type I entire time , get it ? good

I tried to fam at level 16 got bored, so I left my sp 5-9 levels below my char level, seemed to work, like earth toaists I had 5sp by the time I finished the quest I had almost 3k sp, but I also kill every thing I saw around me also, I also used my fire and lightning nukes for a very fast 2 hit kill on them, not sure how much sp per round I had wasnt paying attention, I am now on scorpians and had 8 sp killed around 100 so far and have around 300-500 sp cant rember till server comes back online.

as of right now my fire and lightning skills are levels 32 , my weapon skill is level 26 I also used a level 26 +5 spear for about an hour, not sure if that helps with sp. I normally use my level 32 halbert +5
