Least painful leveling gap/divide method to get sp?

[El Kabong]

I have only one character in Pacific so i dont have the luxury of farming bandits, so i was wondering what the least painful way to get the points you need is. I'm thinking more along the lines of a method of keeping a proper gap and pseudo-farming at specific levels

Like, i heard a constant 4 lvl gap is a good idea, or maybe 3-2. I've seen that there are even specific levels where SP farming is at good levels and i'd like to know those... I'm not exactly so hardcore as to scrape my way to the full 9-gap and im too cheap (or maybe too jaded by wierd service) to actually pay for them fancy exp tickets, so... yeah.

it's been open for 3 weeks and i see people that are in 5D gear already, so i'm pretty sure there are a few sos 16 bows in the server.

what im doing is 2 gap till 42 or 52 and then delvl to have a 9 lvl gap and farm. 2 gap gives u 2 trees to play with (of course be selective since u don't need all skills). 4 gap gives u 3 trees.

5 gap = 220k sp for an average build y farm when u can grind on anything?

because it's harder to kill mobs and pvp when ur skills are lagging 5 lvls behind.

You don't need an sos bow to farm. There are two options, farm, or gap. Farm you get it all over with and then level with a zero gap or you gap and take longer to level but farm your sp as you go along. Or you can do a combination or either. It's all personal preference.

I like mixing it up , keeps things interesting.

Rather than 4 gap it all the way, which isn't a bad idea, I zero gap to the next sos weapon lvl, delevel to 9 gap and sp farm enough points to get everything I want at current lvl. Then SPEND to zero gap then lvl up to the next sos lvl. Rinse repeat.

Varies the gameplay a bit. Probably not the absolute best way to do it, but hell, this is a game and I'm having FUN

I'm lv45 now and I have about 18k SP, all my mastery is 40. But I'm so confused. I have a lv52+5 bow waiting for me, because everyone says that farming at 52 is best. But lvling now is too bored because it's slow, even with a gap 5 like I am now.
Should I set gap to 0 and lv to 52, then delvl mastery ?
Or should I keep gap and lv slow a bit ?

My 18k SP can pay me easily to 52, and delvl mastery will not be a pain because I just plan to keep 1 tree up to my lv.

9 gap, get the sp you need, then 0 gap

Anything else is a waste of time, imo
