cuz farming skill points @ lower lvl is faster besides if you just 0 gap to 80 you won't have enough skill points to get all your skils so thats why you need to farm and yes the skils stay the same but they start costing more and more and more skilpoints and they get powerfull xP

its the same :S

low lvl gets sp faster only if they get plvled... otherwise if they fight, its the same amount per kill except maybe they kill faster

sp farming at higher lvls just means you lack skills so you are weaker than a same lvl farmed char so killing is slower

On the other hand you get more SP per kill, and the drops you get are actually worth something, so I think it all evens out.

If at the right SoX level (like 16) you can get a great SoX weapon (preferably SUN) or if you have someone that can powerfarm you, then SP farming makes sense. Otherwise, it's faster to just adjust your gap depending on your SP needs, and 1-4 gap your way through the game.

Trust me since ur a blader 4 life your going to need farming becasue blader are one of the most blood sucking sp builds there are and since u hit so little you might want to sp farm so you can always have your skills maxed which means you level faster :D :D

If you farm you will be able to 0 gap and you can level fast. Also, if you farm, you will be able to get all your skills faster and you will be pwnage. :D

It's not a matter of trust. Without SoX and without power farming your farming will go so slow that you could reach the same thing faster by just using a gap throughout the game. My bard/cleric uses up a lot of SP as well, but so far I've always kept my gap between 1 and 4.
