well, the title says it all, i was just wondering if it is really necessary, or would i be a lot weaker than other people

im currently level 21 with no gap, lvel 21 bow mastery and

will i be A LOT weaker than others?

Not a lot weaker, but it will be a noticeable difference between level 1 skills, and level 3-4 skills.

Personally I think SP farming is stupid but to everyone their own. Sure my skills are about = to a 53 - 54 blader right now while I am 58. But I can still kill my lvl mobs and do my quests. Once I get home from hollidays I can hit cap and farm all I want there and get my skills up. I can still hold my own in PvP, I could probally be doing better if I farmed and had my skills up to my lvl but I can do that when I hit cap rather than taking months to gather 200k + SP.(idk if 200k would even last you to 70 but you would be farming for ever). So iI'd rather be slightly weaker than lvl 20 for months.

Well, if you farm in intervals like some people you won't have to be level 20 for months and months ^^; I've been playing for maybe a month and I've done a fair bit of farming and gotten to level 35, enjoying myself the whole way. I have 4 masteries at 33 with all the skills I want, and over 1000 SP left over. I think farming is fine, as long as you don't bite off more than you can chew in each serving~

Yes. I would do what you can handle, but I think sp farming is necessary at one point or the other unless you want a gap forever. I dont think I would farm over 100k at the bandit stronghold unless I had an SoM or SoSun wep though. Do whats right for you.

Fire + Bow or Fire + Glaive or even Fire + Blade in most cases that will not be "playing it uber" (that is putting in lighning for lightning passive, in force for heals, and in Heuskal for HP passive just so youre the leetest cahracter possible) can manage to do it if they are only gonna put in fire and their weapon mastery trees, they can just go with 2 or 3 rank gap for their entire leveling career and be fine.

Dont bust your ass SP farming, unless youre a nuker.

It really all depends on your attitude to the game. You playing this for the fun of guilds, friends, jobbing, getting high level without anything to slow you down? Don't farm, just go out and have fun.

In for the absolute power? then farming is your friend.

Priam.

Yeah i wish i had farmed earlier.

I too wish I would have farmed earlier. I'm now farming at the shades like hell, but it's way discouraging for levelling part (even with ticket)

...is constant lvl 5 gap called semi-farming?

I planned to do it till i hit lvl 70...even with that using sp calculator, i lack 10k sp

meh i just keep a 3 level gap i have enough sp for my blade and fire trees... when i hit cap ill just get all the other skills
