That's pretty amazing for a 8 month old server.

I got it on 3.0 release as ftp, but my server is 4 months older than yours. Whereas I'm certain I could reach it "3 month back", given the boost provided by 3.0, I'm not sure about 4 month back.

I've never plundered once since the 2.0 plunder came. I've voiced my opinion on the matter multiple times, I find it dishonorable and out of character.

I'm a ftp.

I have 74111 power on my primary team, which consists of 2 3*, 1 4* and 1 5* ninja.

I do not have injury rune (cave rune) equipped, instead I have a single lv 10 sitting in my inventory.

Due to my refusal to ever change class, I was stuck at exam 140 for a very long time, only passing it on the day of 3.0 release. So I'm missing a chuck of power from equipment upgrade.

All in all, if I wanted to max my power, I'd be at least 78k, maybe 80k.

Granted, like I said I've played the game for a year now, so quite a bit longer than OP. But there is also the almost 10k power gap. Just because you can't do something doesn't mean it's impossible.

That said, if you are newish to the game, getting to our level of power in the same amount of time might be easier, might be harder. It might be easier due to feature released, which means you get boosts of power sooner, which helps in ninja exam etc to grow your power overtime.

It can be harder because... ninja tools. That's pretty much the end all and be all bit. Super awesome golden secondary stats just aren't there anymore, and now elements are significantly harder to connect. That said, 3.0 did bring a partial salvation, if you can call it that. Due to the nerf of, for example, sword of Totsuka, The best blade can have +20/+20 base stat (up to ~25-30 each with element connections) as well as up to 38/38 additional difference from level up, for a total of over 60/60 atk/def difference, a difference that can more or less make up the difference on secondary stat. But this only applies to like 3 tool, so new player are still overall shafted, this is power you will never get.

My survival clearance count is 50 shy of what is maximal possible(4426/4476) for my server, due to unable to full clear them in early days. How many of your "active" players can say that or better after 6 month?

GNW tenten, that's it.

So in order to finally claim(thou probably temporarily) the top power title, this happened.

And before the noobs scream, here is proof of ftp

You will notice that my current power is 6k below the one on the ranking... well... The ranking power is super inflated with 5 star ninja and stuff.

In any case, 80k ftp is perfectly possible.

I expect to lose the title when the ptw logs in.

It shouldn't be. I don't plunder so I'm down 20-30k coupon compared to people who do, which could easily give 5k power if not more. Given that, I'd say most player in the first hundred server or so had a chance to be 80k.

I wonder if there is a 90k ftp, it's theoretically possible...

Yes, earth is ez mode.

The core ninja is 8 gate lee, the others varies a bit between the levels.

One of my group mate who is similar in power with me passed it on week 2 that it came out (140) by changing to Earth. I was told that it can be passed with less than 60k power.

I, on the other hand, did not pass it until 3.0 came out. At which point I'm well over 70k power.

Well, for one, I said below 60k, I'm not sure if 55k is enough but... it might be (lowest I heard is either 58k or 59k, but that's just from a few random post I see on forum, there could be lower ones)

For another, I'm talking about first-clear with no difficulty reduction. So you might get away with lower power if there are already people who cleared it in your server.
