How freaking Specicifc...

How specifically specialized in a tree do you have to be in order to be costing a humanly attainable ammount of SP w/o busting ones chops for 2000000000 hours of farming SP????

I mean seriously, i use the calculater and I've stripped my build down to absolute bare minimums and im still procing at 40-55k SP at lvl 60... wtf..

At level 50 im only showing at about 37k, then another 20k pops up over those last 10 levels. Will I ever be able to finish a character with so steep an SP requirement?

Here are the builds:

Origional Build:
Bicheon 60
Strike 'n smash lvl1
---
Illusion chain level 9, BLood Chain Level 0, BIllow Chain Level 9, Ascension Chain level 0, Heaven Chain level 5
---
---
Hidden Blade Series: 1 Rank each
Killing Heaven Series: 1 Rank each
Shield Protection: 6 Ranks

Fire 60
First Imbue Level 1
----
Fire Body-Wisdom rank 3
Basic Protection 9
---
[...]
Fire Devil Force Level 6

This all comes out to alot more SP than it should, as I've heard of ppl having TONS more high level skills and having to farm for nearly half the time ive predicted it will take me.

Just how much SP would I earn (approximately) from level 16-50 with a 6 level mastery Gap? Would it be enough to meet my 37k requirement? Would I have enough to rush on to level 60 without breaking down and SP farming my bawlz off?

Over about 5-6 levels with a 5 mastery gap, I've gotten about 20k sp. I don't know the exact number since I used a bunch to keep the gap at 5 and move my fire up to match my bicheon tree. I have about 11-12k sp atm. If you can do a 6 mastery gap as far as you say, you'll be great for sp. Stick to you plan even if you have extra sp after you level up since things cost a lot later on.

Ok so a 6 mastery gap is actually overkill if i keep it as is for the rest of the game...

interesting....

This means i can take a 3 rank mastery gap till the rest of the game...

Very cool.

lv 1 fire imbue , thats really not good . a better imbue will give you better dmg

yes lvl up the imbue. that sp sounds like alot but think about it it's not like you have to farm all of it now i only need 6k sp till lvl 30(i'm using alot of masteries) and i'm happy with that SP goes up extremly fast but you'll be gaining it the entire game. not just about this but i'm sure 1 devil yeti give a couple SP if not like 10 (:P overkill i know) but yes it seeems like alot but isn't

. i say stick with your original build and even add a little bit more it will help. (you'll bbe helping yourself to

)

WEll cording to the guide on SP - XP ratios, i have 77k SP if i keep a 3 lvl mastery gap till end-game... give or take 10%. Even if its off by a hell of alot more than ppl think i should be able to afford to max that skill, max out the Fire-body series like i origionally wanted to and probably dump my spare pts in Heuskal and Cheolsam force to make me harder to kill.

And then if I have points left after that I'll up the 2nd Killing Heaven skill.
