And i'm farming, with a garment set with all + str, i can two-shot bandits with no imbue. I want to be a multii-buffed galive.. something like fire/lightning/ince glaive.. or maybe just fire/light glaive, what would be a ballpark figure of how much sp i would be comfortable with with no level gap?

Another question, i have all eq that gives me +22 str in all. With my bow i can two hit pop bandits with no imbue, my question is, do i really need to level up to about lvl 20ish, then delvl back to lvl 16? or Delvel back to 16 since im only at lvl 17 right now. I heard that you keep your lvl 17 str stats and that the point of the delveling is to 2 pop bandits, can anyone help me on this? thx

Just delevel to 16, you get more SP than at 17. If you can two hit bandits without imbue at that level, you could get some serious SP farming done pretty quickly, I'd do that for a couple weeks if I were you, then keep your gap at 3 or 4 till you get a higher level, then SP farm a bit more.

Are you kidding me. Why would he bother farming at higher levels.. he has an SOSUN! That is THE SP farmers dream right there. I would say you should farm 60-75k at lv 16 then just farm at the level cap when you have nothing to do while keeping a 0 mastery gap throughout the game.

BTW You should post a pic of your SoSun, I would really like to see it. :D

Currently I get about 100 sp every 10-20 min in the den, if i'm alone or not. How do people get 500 an hour or even 1000 :? an hour, any hardcore sp farmers advice?

btw its a crit11, and i made it +1. I'd say worth about 50-60 mil? About?

i dunno abt the price.....But OMFG!!! WTF?!?!?! how do you get the drops.....sigh ........Im condemned to forver wander SRO without an sox weapon at all..........And also most of them have exp scrolls when they farm.......That may accnt as to how they get that high a number of sp......

A gold ticket makes sense, but to me a silver one does also, The archers give me 128sp each kill. Takes about 1-2 sec to kill them. A silver ticket gives 50% more sp, so they would give me 128+64= 192, or 138+69=207 sxp with exp. distribution. That gives me about 4-5 sec = 1 sp point = 12 sp points a min= 720 points an hour = 4320sp ever 6 hours, considering you do a massive grind fest.. I'm thinking about if i should-cough up the money for it. It was a big leap for me to even buy a squirrel, especially when its a free game. So far a great investment on the squirrel. I'm leaning towards i should get a ticket, but then again not..... i'm a cheap skate!

Yea or Nay on the tickets? I would easily get 30k in a week... but be short $10.. its only $10 right :wink:

From 4-5 my characters, i had a total of about 10 sos drops. 6 being weapons

Tickets are 110% worth it.

Watch out though.. They get addicting.

Soooo i got a silver ticket. My sp farmer rate is about 100sp every 6 minutes, and 800-1000 sp an hour. Not bad investment, though delvling is a huge pain in the buttocks.

So wait you can one hit a bandit archer with imbue? Or still not quite there yet?

Posted: Mon Jun 26, 2006 2:21 am

I can two hit w/o imbue, i still can't 1 hit with imbue.. which is pretty weird because i have eq that gives me +23 in str (and +5 mp, yay alchemy). Maybe i'll level up into the 19-20's until i can one hit the bandits, maybe not.

The reason why you can't one hit a bandit archer is because you have the bow without + ,make it +3 and you'll see the difference

It's a +1 right now. I'll try to make it +3 given the luck factor and the amount of money, which i don't have right now =\

I made it +3! With imbue i can barely one hit them, the critical 11 takes over most of the time though, about an eighth of their life is still left,.. hah maybe i'll level up enough to one hit them w/o imbue.. that'll take a while..

isn't this the LUCKY guy who found the bow in a stall for 600k? XD

If you almost 1 hit bandits with str and imbue... imagine a int farming with that!

Yeah thats me, I'm also lucky enough to make it +3 w/ no failings this time.. and to find weapon elixirs in stalls for less than 100k. I found a sos blade lvl 16 for 10k also.

I think i should have gotten a gold ticket.. gold tickets give me 256 sp exp, while a silver ticket gives me 208 sp exp w/exp dist.. which means i would have to dlvl more.. all good maybe i'll get a gold ticket next month.. maybe not.
