SP farming
Aug 14 2010, 9:11 PM EDT | Post edited: Aug 14 2010, 9:11 PM EDT
I have my own system for sp farming that i have developed by myself. The main difference is I maintain a higher ratio of SP to EXP than in the guide. It makes it slower to LVL but your SP will be better when you get to say LVL 35 for example. Yes, do solo party as soon as u can, but i don't do the dying trick to restore lost SP.I start with exp lock at lvl 2 along with solo party. I fight foxes only for lvls 2-5, wolfs only for lvls 6-7, berserk wolfs for lvls 8-10, jaguars for lvls 11-12, wandering zombies for lvls 13-15, sasquatchs for lvls 16-17, werewolfs for lvls 18-20, elder werewolfs for lvls 21-23, ghouls for lvls 24-25, mummys for lvls 26-27, orc fighters for lvls 28-30, orc axemen for lvls 31-32 and orc sgts for lvls 33-35. This should net u close to 10k excess after getting lvl 35 skills. Again, i warn u this is slow to lvl but great for SP farming!!!Good luch to all & happy hunting in LC!!!!!

Actually, your method was once I thought about once, but you forget one thing. The TIME FACTOR.

This was something I tell people time and time again, you have to consider. Now we all agree that at Level 17 you can get 5500 sp off one kill. Now the foxes is way lot lower sp.

See what you do is spend all that time getting low sp. That is why I tell people to level up to at least L17 real quick and start getting that 5500 sp in the Prokion Temple.

Now if you can time it for 2 characters, then the one that went to L17 faster would have more sp in the long run, again TIME WISE. While he is getting 5500 sp you might have to kill 2 or 3 mobs to get that.

Hope this explains it better. The best way now is to get to level 31 on ANY toon. Then they get the FREE +10 armor and weapons. Then you Level your main character to L29. At that level he can have ALL +10 armor and +10 weapons. He can hack away and not worry about dying. Drops are a little better then at L17 too.

Strategy has to change with the game as the game changes. Long ago, there was no free +10 armor too.

Yes, your way is one way to do sp farming, but actually that is the slowest way to sp farm too. Sounds good, until you start thinking how much time you waste at the low levels.

Like do you want to get that 10k sp farm in 1 month or two months. Of course, everyone will say two months, oops, LOL, one month. Think of the time factor now. You might reread the sp farming sections again

But like I tell people, this guide is just suggestions on what to do and food for thought. You do what you feel like now. I just tell you the other way to do things or how to improve things. I have to get one of my low toons now to go explore all the new mobs now for sp and xp. I wish Aeria would give outside mobs more sp to get people out of the dungeon, but then I do not run the game either, LOL.

Well have fun anyway.

The only problem with both of these scenarios is that we all know that to get to lvl 160+ , 40k in skill points is still to little 50k is more likely to get u all the way there. 10k will only get u to about lvl 85-90 depending on what happens to your toon in the game. So, skill point boosters and anything else, that can help boost overall skill point gain is very very desirable. I like staying in velpist and prokion but would enjoy a change of scenery. Maybe a third tomb for lower levels would be nice say from lvl 35 to lvl 50, but then I dont run the game either. Maybe more new players would enjoy the game more and keep playing instead of getting discouraged.

Guess you did not read the Mondshine section. No need to sp farm in Mondy now. I am at level 159 and 10%. If I use sp to get last skill, i will have like 8k sp left. Wonder what my sp will be by the time I hit L165, lol.

Yea, the fastest way, IN MY OPINION, to sp farm is to get a same class toon to Level 31 fast, to get the +10 FREE armor and weapons. Then since you have the experience of playing then get your main toon to L29, so it can use the +10 armor and weapons, then no need to worry about dying. You can just whack them suckers as fast as you can. Strategy changes, and there was no free armor before.

I have mentioned to others, that they should get the OUTSIDE mobs with more xp and sp, cuz Prokion Temple is SOOOOO boring. You see Aeria does not think ahead. More fun therefore more players who MIGHT buy sp.

My way is still the fastest now. People that get to L140 are still sp farming. I tell them no need to, but it is a habit. They said no need of sp farming so i did not WASTE money on spb as such. Of course, no one mentioned the half bill gold for each skill either, lol.

well all you can do is put in your 2 cents like me. Does not get anywhere though. lol

I read what you have to say five fingers. Good advice and great information. I know that to get to Mondo you have to be lvl 140 and to get to lvl 140 one needs more than 10K in skill pts probably at least 40K. Since my higherst character is just 110 I guess I will have to see about the quests and son when I get to lvl 140 LOL In the next year . Thanks

Ok, when is the best time to sp farm, isn't it when they have sp events and what is the best combo for boosters during this time, doesn't it make sense to use skill pills and skill pill boosters, otherwise what i'm saying is i don't want to wast any boosters if I'm going to be capped. So during sp events, what are the best potions to use without wasting any percentage of them? And this includes using Elizabeth's enhancement and being lvl 17 in prokion.

Pssp = Platinum Super skill pill = 300% sp
ssp = super skill pill = 200% sp

Well, in my OPINION, when you use Elizabeth's buff or if it is a SP event, they normally are the same, at 200% now. The trick is to pass them up and BUY a platinum skill pill

The thing is to have Pss0, 15% skill pill (sometimes called Training pill too), and spb to give you the max now of sp. Plat booster versus the skill booster is 300% versus 200%. I try to tell people, save and buy the pssp if you can. If you use the spb and skill pill during ELizabeth's or sp event, it is 200%. So with the Platinum you are doing 3 times getting sp versus 2 times sp on the other two methods.

I try to tell people, level a knight to level 31 real quick. He gets his free L30x armor and L33x set of weapons, all +10. THen you can give to your main, who should level to L29 and get xp locked then. Reason is, now you can kill away and not worry about dying. Then with the pssp, skill pill and spb, you can really go to town getting sp now. Remember, if you die you need a sp restoration pill or resurrection scroll on you, so you do not lose sp. That is why you level so you can have your main character use the +10 armor and weapons.

That is good advice. I have done exactly that and when my main makes lvl 31 iI give all that gear back to my knight and make him a pet leveler..Two nice upgrades at once. It doesnt get any better in LC.
