Ideal level to begin SP farming??

rudez · Post by **rudez** » Tue Apr 03, 2007 10:20 am

I've been browsing through numerous topics on the forums and have found that apparently it's noobish to sp farm at a low levels.

Is this true? And what's the reasoning behind it? After reading the guides about SP farming, I stopped lvling up my masteries at around 12. (Character lvl is 17 now)

If it is true, then what's the ideal level to put the gap?

ill say lvl 24 or 32 becouse untill that lvl you can collect money for an sos weapon

where will you colect 6m for an sos bow lvl 16

,at lvl 16,sos weapon lvl 24 is around 3m

it comes down to your build. 32 is the worst place to farm for a nuker. As for 24, there are few places with good enough spawn rates. Demon horses have wonderful element drops, but you need a very good weapon to kill them fast with that gap.
52 is a very good option too. But still, the best place to farm overall is the bandit stronghold at 16.

I'm going for pure STR blade. So should I keep the gap or not?

If you're gonna farm, stop your skills at 15 and farm at 24 (9 lvl gap) with a lv24 SOx bow.

Make sure your gearz are pimped, also. Farming with such a gap at such a lvl can be hard.

for me, i will farm at lv 16 at SH for 200k sp, if u r pure str, trust me u neeed that, i only farm for 110k then i start to lv with 0 gap, and i didnt have enough sp to get to lv 69. so i farm another 30k at penon warrior, it's hard to farm at lv 52, but at lv 16, u will be the fastest, but only problem is u got to delevel... do 9 gap if u gonan farm at lv 16, that's my opion. u can farm at any lv, for me, i think lv 16 will be the lv, especially u got a good sos bow at lv 16...... i got som+5 so ya, i can 1 hit kill archers...

i would farm at lvl 16 for like 100k

ehh...i would consider that kinda hardcore farming

i farmed 10k at 16 and am very sick of it so just move on to lvl 52 to farm agin

Sometimes it's best to farm in stages.
As a pure int
For example farm a little at 16.
Then farm some at 32.
Then more at 52.
Then once you are in 64+ (say 64+ cuz gears can make you go there much earlier) you can spend years farming nachals.

is there also people that delevel to keep the 9gap
on a level like 64? i mean, i hear a lot of people that
delevel to beginning of 16 once they get to 17. However,
when they do get the right amount of sp they level up
to 17 fairly quickly and i think 64-65 will take somewhat
longer.

so do people actually delevel on the high levels? or do
they just keep on going and keeping a 9 gap and always
have enough skillpoints in the end?

Exactly how long would it take to farm up 10k SP at lvl 16?

From what I've experienced, it would take foreverrrrrrrrr....

yes it feels like 4ever
from my experience, i farmed wif SOS S&S at bandit den on bandits
(Yes i know i shld farm wif a SOS,SOM bow on archers...but the middle place is like **** crowded wif SOM Bowers and wif sword i muz run to the archers to hit but nt bandits, + i hv no $$ to buy a SOS + bow which is like 4 X my SOS S&S price)

so wif full party on every time, i played only 3 hr every other day(nt tt hardcore n addicted)...it took me 2 weeks to fin farming 9k SP

just my personal exp,
PS: wif 9 gap archer gives 139 SP/kill. bandits 225 SP/kill wif full party distr
