It's simple...you see i'm not talking in general...my problem is strictly with battlecraft leves...i like fieldcraft (so much that they're the ones i'm doing from regional), i liked alot the change at locals...but i can't stand this battle system. I know...it was just the AA...but this "just" was enough for me to start really hating te battle system.

I didn't do battle leves for a long while after 1.18, since gathering leves give really good SP now. But ive done a few for a while, and they really are good as long as you use the right difficulty. Difficulty has changed, 5 star is very soloable as long as your id say at least 5 ranks above the leve rank and can heal yourself well, but there are some that will still need to be lowered. Doing them in a group is still better than doing them solo however, even tho SE intends them to be mainly solo. You still recieve SP Bonus after someone esle completes their leve. It may not be much, but after doing 64 leves, it adds up. 8 leves of your own you get full bonus from, and 56 others you get partial bonus from. for R40 leves, the parcial bonus is always above 600 sp. multiply that by 56 (assuming no links) thats 33600 sp just from that at its lowest. It would actually be higher than that. Add the SP from your own leves (assuming no GA and at 5 stars) they are about 5000 each thats 40000 from your own leves, totalling 73600 in leves. with GA they are 7500-8000 each (some leves give more), so that is 97600 sp at the lowest. Granted with links the 'shared' sp will actually be a bit lower, so i would say at least 80000sp - 90000sp for doing 8 leves in a group with GA. r40 faction leves give 8500-9000 for 5star completion, speed, and GA. Oh, then you add the bit of SP for the kills you make and it is a bit more, even tho the amount of kills you make isn't the main determinant in leve SP anymore, it is just a small portion of it.

And if you ever decide to get back to it in a group, you only have to Aspect leves you start or link.

Also.... This thread is about recipe changes damnit
