I did the calculations last week, if Casuale, Metal Dimmu, fixate, or Nicole were still playing, they would all be Rank 48 (Overlord).
Its honestly a sham title. Heck even how emp is decided is a sham. AP should be used to buy gear and siege and that's all, it shouldn't count for a hoot otherwise.
The top players should be decided by K/d ratio with a set amount of kills required to make the leader board.
Some of the most skilled players in this game will never rank under the current system which really is a shame.
Hell just myself and 1 guildie together killed over 200 people the other night, about a 50-50 split in KB and you could count on 1 hand how many times we both died combined yet the current system doesn't reward smart skillful play, it don't even reward playing the objective and holding the map.
Most, NOT ALL, but most on the top of the leaderboards just hole up in resource towers, spam aoe and bats to rack up AP, its really a pointless system.
Look at guys like Sypher, your telling me those guys are better them him? That's just foolishness, its nonsense. Again, the current state needs to be changed, it doesn't reflect the best players accurately and they shouldn't be aesrding emp titles earned in such a manner. As much as I loathe COD at least your ranked by K/D not by how much exp or money you earn.

Congrats on the rank and I can only hope I'm the first to kill you once you get 50

Thanks for answering. I knew there was someone over there really close. It's kind of odd there are three players that high ranked on EU and only one on NA, not sure why but interesting.

Considering IR always runs with a full raid it must be tough to find groups that big

It's no wonder so many AD and DC players on the NA servers hate him. It's because he has destroyed pretty much all of them numerous times.
Congrats to our former and future emperor, Crystalized. Let me wish all of you AD and DC players good luck in your pursuit of the Grand Overlord slayer achievement once Crystalized hits rank 49 in early 2015. You're going to need all of the luck possible.

Most of those who were even with crystallized AP wise left the game a little ways back. Also most of the guilds that during the peak of pvp and ap farming aren't really around anymore. Just a few left from each of those guilds. Crystallized is pretty much the only one to keep a full group of players who can complete objectives and obtain obscene amounts of AP on a daily basis.

Crystalized spent the whole last campaign grinding pve achievements up to 13k points, just saying. IR groups were pretty small until very recently.
He still managed to get world first grand warlord after spending 1 full campaign pveing.
