SROF, I've been pretty loyal to these forums. They've helped me alot, but since I've on a long due Hiatus from silk (read my sig) I decided to download silk again and try on grinding. I was eager, but not even 30 mintues, I got sick and tired of it. I'm like "Dude, I swear..." How do you guys do it? I farmed 85k with one GT and that took me a month. But now I couldnt even stomach 30 mins of grinding on Mujiis? Wow.

Surprisingly, i find it more motivated to farm the SP rather than LvLing.
I don't know y, perhaps its because i happen to get more drops from mobs while grinding sp. I am just at the 20k sp bar now and i already got a SoS Weapon and a SoSun Protector. :)

While my other character, Lvl 52 full Int... I find it really boring to lvl it. Altho its easier to LvL.

what helps me is grinding on higher lvl areas ppl my build kill mobs with new skills so i get jealous and want them and it makes me grind even harder.

or get a weapon that you will be able to use in a lvl or two or 6 or whatever and everytime you open you inv. you will see it and be like mothercker only X more lvls til i use this baby.

and also but it in your skills bar :D

Yeah, dude. I totally feel the super drops the bandits/archers give. They feel great, haha. Man SP farming was easy, I had a +4 lvl 16 sosun bow. Man I was getting harassed left and right over it. But man did I feel powerful, oh by the way, back in the day venice den farmers, might have known me, my bro had the same bow, his ign was SonnyCheeba.

DUDE GRANDO ESPADA IS DOPE. but the game is freakishly huge 3.6 gig. wowwzers. but the game looks promising, the musketeers look like Ivy from Soul Calibur =T

Practice zen buddhism.
Do not feel.
Do not think.
Just grind.
BTW, grinding is 1 way of meditation i think :D
It helps me a lot when im thinking on something sad past memory.
Im empty when im grinding.

What keeps me entertained:
-Good Music [57gigs of my HD ^^]
-Ventrilo [if you get sick of your music, chat with your buddies]
-Cover up your exp and sp with your map [helps in the sense that you won't gander at it... This way you kinda loose track of time]
-Smoke weed [Combined with music, yields the best results]
-Watch tv [I've got a tv right next to my monitor]
-Make friends with the people in your area. Many are botters, but if you are lucky you'll find a babysitter or perhaps better yet, a legit. If you can do this, you'll feel the urge to compete and thus you'll be motivated to grind.
-Swith it up... Experiment. I'm a hybrid int, and the most efficient way for me to grind is using nukes... But that just gets really boring so I switch it up at times and start using combos and other spear skills. I also practice pvp at times by shield swapping in the middle of a gsm or sss. Wears time down nicely.
-Join a good active guild. You have no idea how well that passes time. If you can chat in the guild chat all day while grinding, it becomes a lot easier.

I just discovered a lovely new way to make you really want to train like crazy even when you just didn't want to. Accidentally nuke a bot and get murderer status. It works every time. I killed about 600 monsters! :D btw thanks to everyone who didn't attack me :P

its official. im playing Grando Espada. Pretty unique I like the whole Baroque Period deal, the Tri-Pod thing you get going from the get go. I got the Musketeer, Warrior, Elementalist going on. Graphics are hands down the best for a f2p, and the music is pretty good too. Play it, anyone else playing it? from time to time I see "globals" from old SRO players saying "Hi". Ah. yet another MMORPG to get lost in, lol
:roll: :banghead:

dude, BTW I was in a Strong "Old Skool Guild" EPIC.
But its just funny how I put time and dedication in sp farming, and I still got a buttload of SP to kill. Its just funny, how I cant stomach the grinding anymore. ah. its weird.
