@Rhye: Yea, 80 PLVL is 50%, but it would be enough for me xD... I'm still P40, since last year... And you pwned me in 5 days ;o
I farm only for xp and don't pick up anything (apart from DE), and I've done it all before. I know how long it takes unless I focus on xp. And PL 80 is 53.06% complete Gotta focus on every % done! Also, think about how far I would have gotten if I didnt have to be at work every day, if the servers had been up on friday AND if I didn't have company over 2 days last week
Okay, times up! It is not possible to post any more guesses and only time will tell who wins. I'll be sure to update this post with the winners when I reach PL100.
The time to post is over. I've stated so 3 times (in the original post, midway through the pages and in my previous post). You will not win even if your guess is spot on.
It'll go even faster from now on. Patch 1.0.8 will (most likely) be here tomorrow and the xp gain looks good. It'll be a nice change to be able to farm act 1 and 2.

I seriously doubt that. I have some inclination that they may surprise us with something more than what they've eluded to, in the way of itemization. Look for the patch to be released on 5/14 ....one day ahead of the anniversary.
Because this is their anniversary, I assume they're rewarding us with something extra. But given the way things have gone, this may not happen.
If Blizz was smart they would've been thinking to do something like that. They need some damage control, and some bonus patching would certainly do it.
Mob density IS that something extra, that allows people farm more then act 3 from para 0-100.
Itemization is more along the lines of D3 release on PS3, many, many moons away as this will take serious time to edit/adjust gear (just hope they dont buff the shit out of everything)
Don't get me wrong, I doubt they're smart enough to pull a rabbit out of the hat on this one. The timing would be eloquent, but not likely.
I had in mind more of a cursory itemization buff. i.e. throwing us a frickin bone. They took Legendaries from total shit to minimally acceptable in just a few short weeks, with no PTR, @ the 1.04 patch. I honestly don't think it would be excruciatingly labor intensive for them to do SOMETHING with items and slide it in as an anniversary token for us, the core-fans that stuck with them through what was quite a trying time.

Well, everyone is allowed to play outside act 3. I played almost equally in acts 1, 2 and 3 (not 4 though). I never used a hellfire ring or put a ruby in my helm but I am almost lvl 99, just playing the game for fun (single and coop).
I don't understand people focusing in parangon leveling (except the "world first", I can understand the thrills of the competition at that time). Parangon leveling was supposed to be a bonus you get while you play the game, not the goal of the game. But it seems most players don't think like me so I must be missing something
I am not against the mob density change though. I like changes, it makes the game more fun !
I'm all about min/maxing my character and knowing (if I was on PL99) that I can gain 3 dex, 2 vit, 1 str/int is motivation enough for me. My character is only 99% of what it can be even before considering gear. How can I sleep knowing this? PL100 or nothing. The game starts at max level (PL100). Then I can start farming for better gear.
But, to each his own.
And to those doubting patch 1.0.8 isn't all that much better whenit comes to XP gain: I went from 70-90m xp/hour in normal farming to 160-180m xp/hour. That's even without knowing what route is the best in act 1 and 2. Soooo, yeah. 82-86 last night in just 4 hours.
Nah, will be PL 100 today Also, you wouldn't have won anything even if I did get it on the 18th. You edited your post 2 days later and hence broke the rules.

I don't really call parangon leveling min/maxing. You just do it faster but in the end your plvl 100 character and mine have the same benefits. Min/maxing is making choices that make your character better, not making the same character faster (I call that rushing). But I respect the way you (and many other players) play !
I even believe Blizzard should reset parangon levels for the xpack IF they add some interesting perks/content (new skills/runes/crafting recipes/new bosses or dungeons available, etc...) at different levels (if it's only at max level it's useless, the point would be to make players happy to reach plvl 70 for example because they can now craft that new legendary follower specific item that allow them to have a follower in multiplayer games).
If they don't add anything new to parangon level they should leave them as they are of course.
Yes, feel free to change it before I close the "votes" at midnight today. I will allow it since you posted your guess as late as earlier today.
You think I level fast? I'm only 30% done and I think I'll pass on your offer... This is gonna be a loooong grind

I'm PL 88... My female monk is PL100 and she has been since 2012.
Nah, will be PL 100 today Also, you wouldn't have won anything even if I did get it on the 18th. You edited your post 2 days later and hence broke the rules.
Reseting PL? Yeah, I like that tbh. Tell blizzard
I will look through the posts now to find the winners

Oups, I forgot to mention that. I had played 133 hours from I started as lvl 1 on normal until PL100
