Sp farming and at higher levels...not really needed at lower lvls.

id say if you were about to farm at any level in high levels.
7 gap for silver ticket. 8 gap for gold
then youll have 9gap to farm

Are you guys to ignorant to understand that if you use it at lvl 5 or at lvl 80 it makes no different? It doesn't turn into extra exp at higher level. It saves you 3 hours of leveling time at low level, and 3 hours at high level. Same thing.

+1 it only lessen your grinding time. 25% like half of grinding time reduced and 50% of the grinding time reduced.

And theres too many quest that gives big exp at 20 below. So I guess use it when your 24+.

At level 5 you don't have enough skills to grind efficiently. The first time a ticket is actually worth using is when you get to the bandit archers.

did you buy that lvl60+ account? why the hell would u use it ASAP when u can get 1-20 in 2 days. call me crazy but i think it would be wise to use it when lvling is much harder at later lvls

PS. whatever ur on, i want double

I recommend using gold ticket when you are farming or as Bakemaster said, when you are able to grind efficiently. The best time for me to use gold ticket is when my level hits the next tier of SoX weapons. For instance, I hit level 32 and have a sosun spear to use. Activating gold ticket will double the speed which I will level and because you have a weapon that is 15 levels higher than normal, grinding feels much faster and enjoyable. This also prevents spending money on useless equipment along the way because you feel like you are leveling fast. You do need sufficient funds to do this though.

I think the best time to use them is when u'r questless, because then it take more time to lvlup...

no

if you plan on farming the helper can be a life saver...just get an sos bow @ lvl 16 and farm your ticket. you can do aboiut ~4-6k depending on your gear in a 3 hour slot.

regardless of at what level you decide to use your ticket, just try not to use it while the server is laggy...

[SD]Master_Wong · Post by **[SD]Master_Wong** » Sat Mar 17, 2007 10:23 pm

get level 10 no ticket, start 100% grind to level 20 then the next day grind to 25 with the 60%

It's pointless to use it farming at 16 as it'll just make you have to delevel quicker. The best time to use tickets is while stalling, duh! 100% to sell your stuff.

Ok, meet me half way here. I'll explain why there is no difference.

Lvl 5 1 kill = 10%

Lvl 80 1 kill = .02%

Double exp:

5 = 20%

80 = .04%

Now, you use it for 3 hours and lets just say you get 1000 kills but because of the double exp it's like 2000 kills. But if you didn't use it it'd be like getting 1000 kills. So there is no difference, it saves you 3 hours either way. Hard to explain without actually creating a mathematical formula and I'm not gonna waste my time by doing that.

But if you use it at lvl 80 it is still 3 hours, it doesn't magically turn into like 20 hours of double exp...

It's true that the level itself doesn't directly affect the usefulness of the gold ticket, but the level determines what skills you have and what mobs you can grind and that DOES determine the usefulness of the gold ticket.

Look at it this way. People farm at bandit archers because it's fast exp and sxp. So, in three hours, not thinking about tickets at all, a level 16 9-gapping at archers can make a lot of SP. In that same three hours, a level 24 9-gapping at chakji or ghost bugs or ghost soldiers can't make as much SP. Now add the experience helper for those three hours on both players. The SP is doubled, and since the person at archers is getting more to begin with, the bonus he gets from the helper is also more.

No it doesn't. Because you are going to grind the exact same way either way. It will just take longer at the "bad grinds" and go super fast at the "good grinds". I can create an equation for you and at all times it will be 100% the same rate.

Bakemaster · Post by **Bakemaster** » Sun Mar 18, 2007 12:05 am

Go ahead, create your equation, it won't prove what you want it to prove.

I'm going to see Dead Silence right now. I'll try to make it a smart easy post to fully explain it.

*But for a quick reference, whether you use it during a good grind period or a bad grind period, you will have to go through that grind period with or without it which is how it evens out. Think that way.
