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.
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.
Lord Fixate is NOT fixate, he is an Emp farmer fraud.

You trying to start some beef, m80? I'm still wondering why Dyvith gave you leadership of Alacrity, wonder what shame you caused him to do that.
PS: Stop being salty that I took an AD buff server, what it turned into afterwards I had nothing to do with. #RememberHopesfire

How would you calculate this?I did the calculations last week, if Casuale, Metal Dimmu, fixate, or Nicole were still playing, they would all be Rank 48 (Overlord).
Or he just plays the most.So it is true.
Crystalized is the best AP farmer on the NA server.
This thread is so back and forth. Congrats to crystalized, congrats to EU at making more AP than NA players. Congrats to everyone else for making it through 2014. Can we all hug it out now?
Don't worry . Two years from now the posts will arrive stating "I remember when Grand Warlord Title us to mean something!" .
N I'll still be wondering wat it means then

Grandmaster Pulse Monkey!

Just because you aren't or never will be as good as crystalized doesn't mean you should degrade him. Also, stop saying THE SAME FREAKING THING on every thread, we all can read but we disregard it as you have no knowledge of the game or any sort of brain activity at all
Is there a real world employment analogue of "fire ring, fire ring, streak, batswarm, fire ring"!?

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.

I think it should be more than just k/d. Maybe like tiered system with k/d first, then damage done/received, then healing done, then keeps defended, scrolls captured, keeps captured, Ect.
And each score would assign a point value to your overall score so someone who just healed a ton would still have a chance for example.

Regardless of how, I think most of us could at least agree it needs to change. I mean the whole point of pvp is AvA, but then they just use a system that depends entirely on ap farming and doesn't really encourage or frankly require even acknowledging the whole point is to take and hold keeps? Those two systems don't really go together.
And I'm not really sure what they intend to do a few years from now when half the pvp base are former emperors... I mean, I kind of takes some of the impact out of it. It doesn't really feel like they thought that out much, the long term sustainability I mean.
Someone should start a former emperors guild. See how long it takes to get to 500. Right now we're getting at most like 120-130 a year. And that's assuming they don't reduce the two 30 day campaigns down for a second time around...
