Run of the mill chewed up pure STR Glaive build with Fire as main

Just got lvl 15.

Heuskal Mastery 5

Fire Mastery 5
River Fire Force 1

I have farmed around 1250 SP now... Level difference was 9 when I was lvl 14.

Now that I am lvl 15, is it ok to put one point in Heuskal and one point in Fire?

Also, lvling has gone damn slow becuase of this difference... so lets say if i reduce the gap right now, and re put the gap after some levels, will the character be damaged?

I have collected good SOS stuff for lvl 16. Somehow I have to get there fast... so .. if i right now reduce the lvl 9 gap to lets say about 3 or 4.. and later on re build the gap, will it work that way ?

Also, about attribute assimilation, can it change in good direction too or it always reduces some other attribute?

thanks

At some point of time in te game every character wuld require to farm...
But farming jus 1250 .. wil b helpful at lower lvls .. but as u lvl higher tis wuld b far less :oops:

So, u gotta make the right choice ....
Other alternatives is farming at 24, 32, 42, 52 and so on.....

I am not sure abt attribute assimilation, as i havent tried one yet :banghead:

All te best. 8)

Just take the time to get to 16, you can have your masteries at 7 at this point. So now if you want you could up your masteries to 7, giving you a 8 gap for 15.

lvl up to 20+ then delvl back to 16.. i was lvl 27 then delvl back to 16 and farm.. at lvl 20 do a curse heart quest then delvl ur skills to lvl 7.. delvling ur skills will cost ya $$.. maybe near 1mil depend on ur skill lvl.. i tink u can affort it coz i notice u said u a SoS collector.. :P extra stat points do help alot..

Deleveling gives extra stat points?

I mean lets say i am at lvl 16 1%, and I die, i become lvl 15 99% .. then i level again to lvl 16, do i get additional 3 points to add to strength ?

I know that SPs keep coming when one keeps leveling but are u SURE that extra stat points also come in ?

Also, i want to be [ the most run of the mill ] pure str glaiver with Heuskal, Fire and Light .. [ NO ice ] ... so please let me know when and How i should start adding skills ... the old guy guiding me said that dont take anything else than just one river fire force .. dont increase river fire force as its not very high damage... so i tried some guides but could not find info regarding at what level i should choose or increase a SKILL level.

thanks guys .. finally because of you people i am getting somewhere in the game =)

after adding stat points u wont loose it when delvl meaning after u lvl up back u wont get extra stat point after u added b4 at that lvl.. so when u delvl from lvl 27 back to lvl 16, stat points will stay as lvl 27.. after done farming at lvl 16 and u lvl up as normal u wont get any stat points till lvl 27 but when u lvl to 28 u'll get it again..

u a glavier build, u should learn from fire skills tree as u main.. and fire imbue is more dmging skill compare to other imbue.. while farming just use bow skills and fire imbue.. u can delvl ur bow skills after done farming..

When I delvl my HP and Mp go down..... So what stat points do you retain?

"Gap"

when you refer to "Gap" you mean the gap between your level in a particular skill set vs your overall current character level, is that right? If so I would have thought the narrower the "Gap" the better...No?

The gap is the difference between your characters level and the highest mastry tree level.
there are to types of experience that you gain when you kill a monster.
Experience(Xp) goes towards your level.
Skill points(SP) use to gain skills.
A small gap gives you lots of XP but little SP
A large gap gives you the opossite.

When u lvl a point is automatically allocated to both int and str. You also receive 3 to put in whatever u choose; those 3 u retain but u lose the 1 point to both that u automatically obtained when u delvl. This results in your stats dropping slightly. Pfft so many people waste so much money and time farming n delvling lol. So much more fun to jus farm on yetis with a 9 gap. 9 gap lvl 60 is 40k sp alone. Works just fine for me, but go ahead buy all that sos, delvl, get bow skills do this do that junk. Confuse the issue lol ( remember bandit den can only hold so many people + and if they ever reduce the spawn rate there, your all screwed :p) High lvl farming FTW cheers guys.
