For those who are interested in how the hardcore push themselves, feel free to check this docs . google .com/spreadsheets/d/1yxd9Mac1kuoUsogFRJGtJq-DO6KpgUiielIoJBz0s-Y/edit#gid=235820077 to see how players are faring this season !
(Thank you to those data analysts providing us this information!)
In S22, top Paragon was 10529, S21 9296, S20 was 8341 and in Season 19 the top Paragon was 9236. I don’t wear hats, but if I did, I would take it off to you brave adventurers !! This season, the top 10 Paragon ranges from 4592 to 4311.
For current season 23 - facts that can be seen from this data as follows : -
The top 10 share a combined 44,251paragon
In the top 100 list, 86 are from China, 9 are from Korea, 3 are from the EU and 2 are from NA.
The top 10 have earnt 1,778 quadrillion XP combined over the past 7 days, an average of 1.058 quadrillion XP each per hour per player.
This just shows what hard work, dedication and skill will reward you with - and i for one, applaud these legendary gamers. They set the benchmark for us all ! One day, I WILL have this skill !!
Please, my fellow adventurers, join with me in congratulating these warriors - they keep New Tristram safe each and every second of every single day !!
Thank you OP for the list of people that have no lives! Maybe they should all take a break now and go outside make sure civilization has survived without them.
Season live for 17 days. Its easily plausible considering 5T/hr is still on the low end of top XP runs.
Put it this way as well, 4592 is only 9% of the way to paragon 10k.
Is that the sarcasm font you’re using? Out of the realm of possibilities? No.
Realistically, counting the times getting keys and bathroom breaks I imagine that would take a dedicated 20 hour days since the start of the season. That gives you 4 hours to eat and sleep. Yeah, yeah I heard the argument that some people only need to sleep two hours a week or some ridiculous amount of time, but I don’t buy that. But hey, others do. Kudos to them.
You guys/gals all know that it’s because they are a proud owner of a really good gaming chair. You cannot accomplish such great feats otherwise! Kappa.
That was insane dedication, with or without brother Chris.
No wonder why Blizzard doesn’t want to cap the paragon level for the season because these players would have stopped playing once they reached the designed cap (e.g. P3000) in the season.
I swore the season started on the 26th, but the 2nd does change things. The 12 day figure does still count at 5T/hr while we do know that higher XP rates are easily gotten. Ive heard people say that 10T/hr has been done which cuts 12days to 6 days.
Still doesn’t feel like the insane rates of seasons past.
It is plausible if they started with the gear they have now along with all the keys to do 296 hours of GR’s. Pretty sure their total hours is a lot more than 296.
I have a spreadsheet here. It says it requires grift 122 at 2 mins per rift, with around 15 minutes of break time per hour, to get 5T p/h. Best case scenario within “reason” is 118 with 4 mins of breaks in the hour to get that type of exp. It would also require 25 days at 12 hrs per day. At 18 hours per day, that leaves half a day to get the gear required to gain that much exp per 18 hours. Even assuming they have a full bar of exp bonus every rift, that would cut the hours from 18 to 13.5. Which is more reasonable, but you’d have to be absolutely amazing to be able to do that even as a group. I guarantee these are bots.
EDIT: I didn’t take into account the 4p xp bonus. I think with exp pools, you could do 116 or so and get that experience. Still the same case for the whole situation.
