Just wondering all those lvl like 17 - 20 ppl with like 200k SP how do they do it at that lvl?

do they kill them selves?

Grind with 9 gaps at lv16, once they reach lv17 they will go suicide to reach lv16 3-5% again and repeat.

it means that youre highest mastery lvl is 9 lvls below your characters
lvl and it will mean that you get more sp but only 10% exp (every gap
point gives 10% less exp, ie: gap 4: 60% exp per kill, gap 7: 30% exp per
kill, gap 9:10% exp per kill)

do they kill them selves?

yes, they sit in front of the computers for 4-5 months and grind non-stop and eventually kill themselves physcially and mentally

people farming at 16 are very hardcore players so they will do anything to get that much sp...even let their char die many times

80% of all fully farmed people @ lvl 16 are botters that is how they do it the other 10-20% actually grind it all out on there own with the aid of energy drinks, and good music XD

lol, im one of the 20% grind player..and i did collect 180k sp in 3 month..now my glaive is lvl 70..and increasing..

well from my past experience..i think collecting sp at lvl 16 is not a crazy idea..ive posted so many times here..but people tend to ignore it..

the truth is collecting sp at lvl 16 is the best way to reach high lvl at the fastest rate compared to gaping ur mastery or lvl up with zero gap..

i myself turn lvl 70 in just 2 month..so total of 5 month play i did reach lvl 70. but then lots of my fren that use gap mastery or zero gap..is aroun lvl50-lvl60. now, why is that possible?

well its just because i always kill faster with zero gap full mastery then ordinary players plus..i can kill monster 3 lvl higher then me (kill at a faster rate compare to ppl that have same lvl as that monster).

well. up to u all..as for me, i assume this game is like u go study in school...first its hard, but at last, when u study smart and passes the exam with flying colours, ull be happy forever..

just imagine..player with same lvl that don farm will kill a monster in 3-4 hits, but u, just use 2-3 hits to kill...@@

u say u wanna sp farm and u dunno what the 9gaps refer to? u cant be doing/saying things juz because others have said/done ...

now that u know the "gap" refers to the difference in character lvl and the lvl of your highest skill mastery, what u gonna do next? how u gonna "sp farm"?

being in a fun guild/union helps too ....

imo lvl 16 farming is more important to pure str than ints. ints can do it at many levels above 16 and arguably just as efficiently or more. i've not done a pure str myself, but mates have told me that grinding in caves seems good for them, cuz of the spawn rates and close proximity of the spawns (minimal running/chasing). i have not heard my pure str mates complementing or recommending farming anywhere else in between.

lol..yea..actually u can get 2k-3k sp per 3 hours with gt per day..

as myself..i collect 60k sp per month = 2k x 30 days (with GT), im a bit lazy i guess..hehe

and why lvl16?...actually at this lower lvl..at bandit stronghold, the spawn rate is so high and u can 1-2 hit kill it just with imbue + SOS bow lol

why not the cave?..actually ive been lving in the cave..and sadly to say the spawn rate is really high, but if ppl that do not have the sp and are lving there, they'll have a though time (meaning kill perminute) killing a single earthghost..u just cant kill it in one shot compared to the bandit archer..from wat i see ppl that don farm take about 4-5 hits (pure str glaiver) to kill one earthghost..

thats for pure str glaiver, how about the blader..lol? as for nuker i think their life is better lol

is that efficient?..no, it doesn't, thats why ppl recomended bandit archer. fast kill perminute.

I two hit them with my lvl 1 sos bow

Yeah, if you don't know what a gap is, then you probably don't know what farming is. It's probably too late now. I would recommend starting a new character. It sounds horrible but it's probably the best thing to do. I have friends that have played for months getting up to level 40-50. They decided to start over to farm.

If your new, to this game I wouldn't farm at 16 if I was you, and you will need to be a hardcore gamer to farm 100ksp+. If your new and you try to farm you will either quit...due to the fact your lvl will be low you cann't job..you will get owned in pvp if you try to cape..so you may get bored of farming..but like I said if your hardcore you can do it.

well as for me..this one is my second char..my first char i build just to get some money to buy a SOS bow...that is 5m.

if u were new, better u farm earlier..bcuz if u follow other ppl say that it will be boring..then imagine this..what is more boring..then stuck at an average lvl 40-50, and cant finish the game?, with low dmg and hard to kill monster?

it just 3 month man, compare to other ppl that don farm and still playing and stuck at lvl 40-60 in the past 5-6 month till now?..

think about it, its a pain, but i think it just a little pain compare to when u wanted to sp farm at higher lvl...that is why nowadays ppl do sp farm earlier, cuz of the lessons they get when they wanted to sp farm at higher lvl

this game is like the anime naruto, u wanted to be naruto the hero of the anime or Lee, the subsitute char in the game..if u wanted to be naruto, then sp farm earlier, if u wanted to be Lee (@@ lol) then don sp farm..

maybe some will be offended with my post, but i feel very sorry for them (actually at my place) that always complaining how hard this game is, but the problem is, they donno the right way to do it..
