SP farming

Post by phaZex1 »

I've been reading alot of posts with people saying you should delevel if you want to gain alot of SP exp. Right now I'm currently level 18 w/ a level 9+ gap, farming at the stronghold and I was wondering if it really is necessary to delevel to gain that much SP exp. Or can one just keep leveling, maintaining that level 9 gap, and still gain enough SP exp to be a good full str/fire imbue with lighening/cold for the passive/buffs.

Well, yes, but it would take longer, and be much more frustrating. Most people delvl at level 19 or 20, which is where I delvled when I farmed.

I would stay at the den, it's much easier with it's high spawnrate. If you want to leave the den, close your gap to a smaller (3-4) gap and farm again at places with high spawnrates at higher levels, eg: penons.

What other places have a high spawn rate such as the stronghold? A place that a level 18 can handle with not much trouble. And wouldn't a 3-4 level gap slow the process of gaining SP? Sorry I'm still kind of new to this SP farming deal.

Bandit stronghold is probably the best place in the game to SP farm. There no other places with such good spawn rates.

What I meant was close your gap to a smaller gap to level, then stretch it out again when you feel like sp-farming, at higher levels.

And it's ok, everyone was new at one stage 8)

Yeah thats what I've heard. Just the thing is I tried to buy some silk earlier to buy the 4 week gt, and it wouldn't accept my card and the Verify Visa thing wouldn't work either -_-. So I know I'm going to get tired of not gaining as much SP exp at a time so that's why I asked what I asked. O wells...

And I know I asked this already but other than the stronghold, I'm sure there are places where the spawnrate might not be as fast as the stronghold but are good to farm. Can someone tell me these places somewhere in Jangan or Donwhang?

phaze i heard a lot of people farm at chakjis or chakji workers when they outgrow bandits at lvl 18ish. then at like lvl 20 they delevel to 16 and start at bandits again.

on the western china side of the ferrys i see like 8 million of em, look around and youll see what i mean.

Yeah, one of my guild members said he would help me delevel but he's been kind of busy so I been going to DW to kill myself repeatedly. Really boring and really annoying rofl..so I stopped for a bit and just went back to farming at level 18 lol.
