Killing all the mobs available. Ranine reveries (which is what I guss you're referring with "ravine"?) gives less, as puks are rather low in their sp gain. So no, does not compute.

    I'm starting to wonder what kind of idea you have of "playing efficently". because to me it seems "avoid any kind of socialization, and just grind as much as you can".
    Not surprised it gets boring like that.

    dunesfolk gives 20-25k with 3 links in a 4 man party....even better
    add in ranine for another 20k
    and cracked up for another 10k

    you get 50k per cycle easily, without repeats

    Funny, for me Cracked up gives quite a lot more than ranine reveries. I'm sure you can get around 50k per full cycle (after the recent change to SP), but definitely not with just those three, I get 50-55k with a full Broken Water/Halatali run. And that takes quite a lot more than 2 hours.

    yeah, some people dont realize optimal leve party is 4 man not 8 still

    with 4 man, you get 1250 SP per kill in dunes
    you get 780 per kill in ranine
    and i think it was 600 or so in cracked up


    with 8 you get maybe half that or close

    The problem is that with 4 you don't get as many links of the "good" leves, unless, of course, everyone has exploited the abandoning trick for a long time and goes out always with the same. Personally, I didn't get dunes in the last 6-7 cycles, starting to wonder if SE removed it from my list.

    How many stars out of curiosity? because I did try 4-5 people a few times when I didn't have the time to form a full group, and I still didn't see even nearly those numbers.

    Never once seen more than 6 pairs of wolves. 3 already out, 3 spawned by the light points. That's pretty much the regular count.

    ravine gives around 300-400 with 1 link per mob , 3 mobs = 900-1.2k per set .This one is luck but at least 10k from it easily every reset.
    Even here, I get about 200 per puk.

    I think your 8 people party must be hindering your sp, do you leve link all 8 ? couse 4 is max.I think thats why you dont get my numbers.
    Nah, that's rather obvious, we do a leve count first, and then we link 4 max, and repeat if we have more.

    And we aren't even counting the fact that guardian aspect runs out and fatigue. I'm costantly on the yellow the day after it resets, two max. and that does take a toll.
