can someone tell me what gapping is and how it affects Skill Points? im really confused.

Gapping is the difference between your actual level and the level of your skill mastery. Meaning if you are level 20 and your highest mastery is at 18. You have 20-18 = 2 gap. The higher the gap, the less experience you get per monster, but the more skil point experience you get per monster. Meaning you level up slower but gain more skill points for that certain level.
