Farming spirit

b:surrender ull know why when u hit a certain lvl and u notice its 700k spirit or so for one lvl of one skill or even better yet that its 1 mil coins and 1 mil spirit to learn a lvl89 demon/sage version of a skill -whatever amount of coins u payed for said book to learn them genies are an extra i realy wouldnt start worrying about genies at all untill 85+ and only if ur a big pvper cause thats all theyre realy useful for cept for a few certain skills for other classes for other things like gv or pulling mobs/bossesb:bye

I can't speak for everyone but I have over 4mill in spirit on my barb and over 2 million on my archer (lvl73.) I do, however, pick and choose which skills to max...and for the barb ingame coin is always hard to come by, and harder for me to let go of.

Many solutions:
Do races (Event, everydays)
Do Temple of the Dragon (Event, thusday)
Kill mobs
etc.

Cant speek for other classes, but for barbs, chance is, even if u do have the spirit, ull lack the money to max skills. Fortunatly, u dont need to max most of barb skills until later in game. Choose to be a tank or DD and lvl skills accordingly. I rescently built a genie lvl95 with my spare spirits (thats over 10mil SP) and still dont need that much. My skills arn't all maxed, but the ones i use are. Just dont try to max skills u dont use anyways.

If your goal is to keep being maxed skilled for your level, then you should consider using the "genie trick". Ie while you'll be farming for XP/SP, you'll put every incoming xp in you genie, and that will build you great amount of SP.
There are some good reasons why you would do it:

• First, you'll be given some chance to build a very good genie. Focus on leveling some level 1 ones until you get some with 9-10/10 luck points, then go on until 18-19-20/20, and so on.
• Then, you'll have all your skills maxed for your level, with is very funny to play (yes, it's sometimes interesting to remind that a game is supposed to be part of some fun).
• Eventually, you won't be afraid of dying while you'll be farming SP, since you'll always be at 0% xp. Keep putting every single XP into your genie, and you'll feel safer with nothing to lose.

There are indeed cons to this trick. The main one is that you'll stop leveling for a while. But it's up to you. There are no other "free" ways to farm SP

If your goal is not to be maxed skilled, then your question matches the common "how to level faster" one. Then, I can only tell the same things everybody will tell you : Dailies, Zhen, Quests.

Farming spirit is not needed and bad idea for many reasons. You want to get to lvl 80, or better yet, 90, ASAP. Kimping your leveling process makes no sense.

I myself have been capped at 69 for a while now which has allowed me the chance to literally blow millions worth of Sp into genies. IMO cap leveling to farm spirit is not worth it (i myself have other reasons) and would not recommend it at all.

Don't fret over this. You get a huge, huge, HUGE amount of spirit around level 80-90s.

I myself have about 31m in spirit that is just decaying. b:surrender

Phew... sounds too good to be true :-)

Unlike the other "early 60s" character at the beginning of the thread, I have almost NO skills at all, and when I recently checked the skills and available spirit... well, lets just say I'm not at all confident about getting anything up. I have rarely added levels anywhere, and I don't think my Alchemy at 3/3/2/3 ate that much spirit (I stopped trying to raise it now and dumped the lvl 4 quests)... so I was wondering whether I would ever be able to get one of the higher level skills even if I make the cultivation.

Of course, being a Venomancer I don't need skills other than Pet Heal, which is why I never cared about them, or tried to hire high levels to do my cultivations or FBs (Free2Play MMO"RP"Gs are bad enough already --- what's left if you take out the quests as well, no matter how stupid they are in these games?). Nowadays, every boss and his mother just swipes my crystalline magmite away like it isn't even there, and none of the skill descriptions reads like it could change that.

I have run out of doable quests (only cultivations, Alchemy, Fungus, DQs, FBs and bosses left) a short time back, so I was looking for "things to do" and among other things checked the skills, just to discover that I'm far too low on spirit :-( And while I only have low skills, most of them are still dispensable --- but when I started I got the impression that every skill can be gotten, and since I didn't find a decent guide and didn't even want the melee skills I assumed I can just add skills as I like/can afford.

[ Lvl 63, current set: Venomous 10, Ironwood 8, Metabolic 7, Summer Spirit 2 (eech... I think that one was expensive), Wood Mastery 4, Fox/Tame/Revive 1, Swimming Mastery, and of course Pet Heal 7... Alchemy 3/3/2/3... so not getting anything other than Pet Heal/Tame/Revive would have saved how much? 1M? 2M? 3M even? While that looks like a lot compared to the 1.3M that I currently have, I think the higher tier skills eat several millions each... and I do see other Venomancers casting skills that I don't even have, along with skills that I DO have ]

Well, since then I've been wondering how to raise spirit a bit faster... along with trying to figure out a reasonable grinding strategy to raise levels (like doing one-man-army until I get 25K, then doing Crazy Stone, filling extra time with DQs or doing more one-man-army for more money so I can do Crazy Stones even on days when I don't want to play. No idea what Reputation is used for, but the one-man-army should compensate for any expiring boss quests which makes it a tiny bit more interesting than grinding other monsters). But that didn't feel like putting emphasis on spirit...

And while I was looking for information on the patch (that school thing doesn't give spirit or exp, right?) I stumbled across this thread... and of course, anyone recommending to not worry about Spirit until "some insane level" sounds too good to be true as lvl 80 or even 90 is still ages away.

I only skimed through the genie descriptions so far so I must have missed the exp-draining thing (I only got to the parts where you need money to cast skills and get random points and pay 3 mirage stones to get a new genie, all of which made it pretty clear that I don't need one) --- I thought saying hello to a boss was the way to reduce exp and not reduce spirit, but I didn't have a clue when the spirit/killtime ratio maxes out, so I didn't visit bosses to raise my characters spirit, as visiting bosses tends to reduce my own spirit.
