I'm lv.52 right now and I can 1 hit penon with 52+3 staff with life control ... I have 0 gap and I can even tank party penon

.... (ofcourse with cleric subclass ---> Bless + Healing Cycle + RD) ... I think you'll have hard time farming at penons ... I have 2k hp w/o Life control ... and I have lv.42-47 light armor ... NPC one , and I get hitted 1200 dmg by party penon ...
You will be alright if you evade party mobs ... if I was you I'd wear robe and start killing sonars ... they are non agressive, they have no champs nor giants ...
Up to you
