What Percent of Game is Ascended

Im just curious, and id like to see what others think as well, so out of the active account, what % do you think people are ascended, and at what level?

i say 50%-55% of Active accounts are ascended, and then out of those, only 45% are LG+1, about 10% are LG+2 - LG+4, about 5% are AG, and then only about 5% are EAG or higher...that leaves 35% of ascended accounts LG or lower...

what do you all think...and any way to know for sure other an going thru all 3k pages ad counting?

Re: What Percent of Game is Ascended

I'm guessing 20% of active accounts is ascended.

Of those 20%:
60% are Prior.
10% are Prophet
8% are Messiah
10% are Incarnate.
10% are Living God (+1,2,3,4)
1.3% are Ancient God
.4% are Elder Ancient God
.2% are Ancient God of Legend
.06% are Immortal Ancient God
.03% are Timeless Ancient God
.006% are Prince of Timeless Ancient Gods
.0032% are Lord of Timeless Ancient Gods
.0004% are Queen of Timeless Ancient Gods
.0003% are King of Timeless Ancient Gods
.00009% are God of Timeless Ancient Gods
.00001% are Origin of Existence

Re: What Percent of Game is Ascended

interesting opinions... :D

I haven't even thought about it, to be honest... but now seems like an okay time... :)

I recently looked in the 60k range for something and the two accounts that I bothered to spy before bed, they were both active... like, newly created accounts.

I was surprised... and no, I can't remember what I was looking for...
I think it was like my award for worst-ranked, yet viable target...

From that, I think a surprising percentage of tiny accounts, (under 1 mil army), and very small accounts, (1 mil - 4 mil), are actually newly created... live baby accounts instead of dead baby accounts...

so I think that a larger percentage of accounts in general are active, than I did yesterday, or than you might...

From that, I'd guess more like half of active accounts are ascended... significantly less than the percentage you said...

but again, it depends on how many players are active... and our inability to accurately count active ascended players separately from inactive ones...


Also, don't forget dormant ascended players that are still rocking the SGW Main world...
or people who only play Ascended...
whether on vacation in Main, or just dead Main accounts...
yeah... no kidding....... vvvvv

I've found that a surprising number of my ascended farms **in Main** have really good accounts in Ascended... ones I can't see DMU or Army Size for...

I never got around to figuring out if their spies were just never killed, or if my farms in Main actively play Ascended... all by it's self... (silly right>?)


Second, I think less than half of ascended accounts are LG or lower...
somewhat agreeing with you... but maybe it's 45% or maybe it's 35%...


As for getting more specific statistics on how many are active in each realm, and what ascended level they are...
I think you might as well start counting...

Kingdom Games, and maybe the game admins are the only ones who could possibly know any of the answers to your questions without counting...

and from what I can gather about the quantities and percentages of semi-active, inactive, and vacationing accounts on both servers... it's not really in the best interest of Kingdom Games to share more info with us... :P

Re: What Percent of Game is Ascended

Are there that many active priors?

Most of the prior accounts I see are people who ascended the one and stopped playing sometime afterward. I can't name that many high profile players who are priors.

Living god plus ones on the other hand...

While he's not a Prior, we have been -trying- to get GunZ to ascend off Prophet! :D

Think you will find quite a few actives that are priors. I know of a few - people who never wanted to ascend but were talked into doing it and decided don't want to do it again.

Way too many people on LG+1 - people need to keep going :-D

imo LG+1 is a valid target. i do agree it would be interesting to see more go further but the sacrifices made would be huge the further you go along obviously. which is why i have respect for ppl like clarkey as far as ascension lvl and resources are concerned.

ok now back on topic...... i'd guess it'd be something like 30-45 percent at LG whether that be LG, +1, +2 or w/e. i cant really tell tho, last time i looked through attack pages admittedly was a while ago and as i remember a lot of the people i saw were LG something.

"Interesting" isn't worth my time and resources, quite frankly. As someone who thinks in terms of economics and self-empowerment, going past LG plus one just isn't worth it yet.

Re: What Percent of Game is Ascended

Not taking away from anyone, nor anyones ascentions, nor anyone ascention levels, BUT,,,,,,,speed ascending with bare minimum requirements is not impressive, its possible to burn more doing ascention to LG+1 then you burn to 20th.

Again, not taking away from anyone, just stating a fact often overlooked. With purg like it is you can ascend 20 times and never be massed now. They are a hop-skip-and a jump away nowadays.


Give props where props are due, Clarkey did it first and paved the way as far as knowledge goes in requirements. =D>

my thoughts exactly, and why I can't wait to join that small percentage of AG


heh keep going past AG, costly but much better 8)

It is not worth it but just because it isnt worth it does not mean people should stop. It's a bit of fun and it gives you something to work for/on. There is only so many other goals you can set yourself - In my view anyway. But also looking at it, it is more cost effective resource wise to ascend now with a low level (covert/ac 26 and ms 2) than it is waiting 6 or 12 months and ascending with covert/ac 32 and ms 10 is it not?

If you play resources wise (Which surprisingly considering the number of times I have ascended I do) then going past LG+1 is not worth it, and I respect those people who say thats me done. Ok that is what you want to do then go for it - up to you how you play.

Not directed at your Mordack but the community as a whole. What I really do not like is people having a go at people who have gone to AG, or EAG or Origin of Existance saying you are wasting your time/resources etc. Shut up you have not done it so how can you really judge it (sure you know the bonus you get etc but that is not the be all and end all of it). People play this game for fun (or so I like to think) if that means they play to ascend as many times as they can then that is their choice. The argument of saving resources is valid but you could also say spending ~20tril ascending for the 13th time is just spending on something to give yourself a laugh/bit of fun.

Understood. I wasn't having a go at anybody, though, just starting the reasons why I in particular haven't made the leap. I realize that a lot of people don't view the game in such cynical terms as I do.

I did contemplate going to AG sometime last year, but on the basis that I wanted to improve my ascended account. I did some calculation, however, and I concluded that it'd just be more worthwhile to buy a lot of DMU.

Re: What Percent of Game is Ascended

the real question should be, how many of those accounts that are ascended actually play ascended?
