That's up to you. If you want faster renders and don't care about maximum realism, skip AO altogether. But I suggest using AO for realism.
You have two choices - you can manage AO on the IBL light, or you can have it done in the materials. The VSS_PR3_AO does the AO in the materials. The NO_AO does not.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
