i said dedicated, not strong.... there's quite a few that deal 50%-80% of the damage I do (and I was doing 3mil burst streaks with my light team unless that 100% eidolon showed up).
not to mention dedicated also means players that are on VERY frequently... doesn't necessarily mean they can no-life it... dedicated and grind heavy are two separate things...
granted, if i had a full day to play, then i could likely get past lv150 ult on my own. i'm capable of soloing lv111 without losing half my HP... it's just gonna take about 7-10 mins a run once it hits about lv90 (and it's not burst time)
even then, considering we were on it daily, but not even no life-ing the event and still made top 100 either means the playerbase is quite small, or there's less grind-heavy players than you think
