Interesting. Theoretically and hypothetically, let’s entertain something for a moment here: suppose quesin had never stopped and somehow he were rank 85 now. At that point, he’s done, but now you want to surpass him and reach rank 86. How many years do you think it would take you to beat an 85 if you were fully committed to do that?
The bar is now set, astronomically high which means they’re saying: hey, come and get me! Just like you told me about someone staying committed to surpassing you by 2030, now I’m curious how long it would take you to beat an 85.

Ok so hypothetically and theoretically, let’s say quesin we’re rank 85 and you wanted to reach rank 86 and beat him. How many years do you think it would take you to beat an 85? Since we’re entertaining this theory, at this point it’s been confirmed that he would no longer continue. So even if you would have gotten close, he wouldn’t budge an inch.

It would take at least 5 years, and perhaps close to 10. I do like the idea of going for rank 86!

You're fighting invisible demons. I decided to get everyone to 81 myself, and because I'm committed to upholding my word. I threw HelpAcc into the macro because it makes no sense to rank just 1 of my alts so I'd rather help a friend. We're all good friends and we keep in touch regularly, but truly it's just me lol. I suppose there always is a chance Colind can come back and drop thousands (as he has in the past) on VoM when/if that gets fixed. Not that he needs to though.

I know this is a hypothetical, but I try to stay grounded in reality. I think there is a far greater chance of the servers being shut down than there is someone reaching rank 85 or 86. It's the burden of the players behind first to overcome the highest rank before the game goes into EoL. Rank 86 or base 78+8 is 4.346 Billion EXP, I don't see it happening legit. Comparatively, I have about a total of 1.6 Billion currently, that's double + change.

I'm just saying, from an outside perspective, that's what it looked like. I was like 20 million exp from passing HelpACC when the macro booted up. I will take your word for it though.
