What way is the fastest to getting to level cap? Grinding mobs all day endlessly and keep moving around to where mobs are your level, or quest like crazy? I've had an SRO leave (been playing WoW for the past few years :3) and I've decided to get back into SRO a little bit. I have one character that's messed up (my mistake :p) so I'm going to remake it. It'll be a 2:1 pacheon/cold/fire if I finish it :roll:. So how should I come about this?

either get farmed..
or take a build that needs little sp and can kill quickly


here are my suggestions

lowest sp using chinese build:
pure int ice/light (Sword shield)
Spoiler!


lowest sp using, euro dual build
pure str Rogue/Bard (Xbow)
Spoiler!

The SP won't really matter to me. I'll be 3-4 gapping most of the way. Also, I'm going to be using a Bow...

For a 2:1 bow, i would probably go something like Pacheon 100/Fire 100/Cold 60/Light 40 or something along those lines (u can adjust the cold or light to ur liking). You could also go Pacheon 100/Lightning 100/Cold 100 (or Pacheon 100/Light 99/Cold 90/Fire 11) since u have quite a lot of int, but it's more of an int build.

actually the 2:1 fire ice bower would work quite well.
you have high damage from fire,
you have both walls
you have both mag. and phys defence
you will most likeley be immune against ice with fire shield
(you might get freeze from ice too)

all you will be lacking is speed, but there are 3 ways to minimize that loss:
- buy drugs of wind
- get a bard in the party
- grind at a spot with high spawn so you dont have to run alot

a 3-4 gap wont suffice though..

you will need a total of about 1,3 mill sp

thats a 6 gap

Aren't warlocks like speed levelers too? Basically, just disease, dot, 2nd dot, and go to next mob. With a grab pet, you don't have to pick up the drops. And with a prem/sp ticket, it's mighty fun.

Wouldn't I need 1.3mil Sp if I was to take the nukes in Ice/Fire? But as a bower, i wouldn't need those right? So if I was to have 100 bow/fire/ice but not have every book, I wouldn't need even 1mil SP correct? I'm still very far off from being close to anything, but I like to have my characters mapped out so I know what paths to take.

i omitted a few skills myself while calculating that
Spoiler!


the only things i'd see as optional to farm would be
bow:
mind bow, but its very helpful for aoe grinding

ice:
wall

fire:
wall


but walls help quite alot when maxed out in 1 vs 1


so without walls and mind bow: 1,177,466 sp

still 5-6 gap

So I haven't been able to get on much (raiding on WoW/ servers being full w/ bots and such) but I was able to get on last night. Luckily found somebody who was doing free Ong farming for leveling people (free which was awesome :p) So from level 9, I got to 19. Started with like 30 something SP and I ended up with 6.5k SP after letting my character stay in the party over night while I slept (of course I woke up and found my account disconnected) So staying on path with 100 Pacheon/Fire/Ice path and ice imbue currently at level 1 (only imbue atm), I should just quickly do the cursed hearts quest and take that off right?

One other thing Pan. When I hit 30, could I raise fire/ice/bow to 30 so I can level myself? Or would that ruin everything?

EDIT: Also, is Fire Shield necessary to pick up?

uhm, if you want to farm, yes it would ruin everything.
if farming wasnt your original plan, then no lol, would mean the gap till 100

optional, but very helpful to be ice immune later on
just need a shield to cast it, but it stays after switching back to weapon
