Getting your 8 chars to max lvl really depends on you what pt will you have or taxi. Farming is much more easyer these days and you kinda don't have to farm untill sp cave at lvl 105 (you can manage without farm). You can't goldbot until lvl 70+ becouse of new token system, but you won't get bann I think for doing it, at least I don't know anyone. But you could try all this for yourself and see.
