imo 72.. at in the last room of nachals. most of the time they have a great spawn rate.. but now they will most likely have party mobs >.< either way at 72 you will be stronger because if you 9 gap your masteries will be at 63. if you farm at 64 your masteries will be 55 :S that doesnt sound too good.

I'm with the same problem, farm at 69 or at 72.
at 69 you'll get double xp from party mobs if you are solo-grinding.
but at 72 you got a great weapon which can 1 hit (with good gear).
so what to do?

btw did you farm 150k with or without premium/gold ticket/sp ticked?

well I suggest caves. Get a good weap then pimp your gear so that you won't be getting that much damage.. I say 72 then farm at lvl 70 monsters.

too many pt mobs in caves, im sure you can grind on karra fish if you get a sword and shield 68+5 with zombie immune they drop really good elements, or bone soldiers cuz theres thousands of those in takla...u can farm on those with a 72 spear.

72 9gap at niya guard/bone soldier FTW...with full pimped 2 rings, hand, weapon

uber drop rate for 8D tab(esp. str which makes alot $$ even when u full pimped) and elements to pimp w/e u want on ur last set gear...trust me :wink:

and better spawn than karra (zombie) or sniper (plenty of 80 plvler)

nope, actually bones/guards are perfect, i know a good spot, after the bridge turn right and go straight until you see a flat land, with a lot of bones..

the reason bones are good is that if you are int and can one shot them, they become spread out, and you wont be ganged up, and also bones dont have giants and therefore you wont ever have to tank anything

i'd farm at 69 with a new 68 weapon, lv 60 skills and at generals in a good pt :S

well 9 gap probably wouldnt let you hit hard but if you are a euro buffer sub then you can just buff

I have a question about farming too and dont want to open a new thread:

I see many people (for example in guild/union chat), talking about farming with 9er gap when they are lvl79. But i ask me all the time, why do they dont lvlup to lvl80 and farm then with 9er gap, when i would be so close to 80, i wouldnt build me up a 9er gap. Why they do, is there any clue I dont see? :D

Yup, I was lost in there :[
OnTopic: 0Gap to 80, than get some hearts for a 9gap. The best way for both chinese and euros.
Chinese: You can wear your full 71-77 set, requiring you to pimp only one set.
Euro: There are tons of niya generals/shaman parties for you to join, causing you to take less hits, so the 9gap armour won't be needed to be pimped that much either. Also, while your farming, you can pimp your 71-77 set :]

Its not that easy trust me ... really it isnt ... especially on Babel ... I suggest farm as soon as possible ... and maybe at ongs ... farm like 500k sp so you're done for 80th cap ...
That is best way

You're not the only European. And, wouldn't everyone farm at the ongs if they could? I mean some people are lucky, and get free powerleveling, most likely from a bot... But others have to do it themselves. This is the best way IMO.

i agree, unless you have 50mil+ to spend on plvl, ur not going to get that much sp, unless your plvling yourself with a higher character.
