conveniently just happened to place a "buff limit" of TWO whole buffs to be eligible for his "buffed" rank, knowing that I had 3 buffs for the kill.
The rule is no more than 2 significant outside buffs. Your kill is still marked as S rank because you only needed 2 buffs. The 3rd one didn't change the end result.

How Zuranthium can claim that it deserves a lower rank (not just slightly lower, he gave it the LOWEST rank possible) than the 5 different chanters that have done with it relative ease is beyond me, and makes absolutely zero sense.
This isn't true whatsoever. The lowest rank possible would be S* with pull help. You kill is at a normal S, only below S+, and has never been marked below S.

It's already been proven melee can do some S+ God tier kills. But that's completely irrelevant anyway. The tier system has nothing to do with a per-class basis. It's simply a description of the factual way that a solo encounter was achieved, and provides useful information to allow people to search for videos and find things that align with the way they'd like to try the encounter.

And again, the tiers are not trying to compare skill between different classes, and challenges aren't meant to be possible at S+ for every class. It's simply not possible. The fact is that the highest raw power of soloing capability in the game is generally Enchanters. Solo challenges are a question of what can possibly be done solo in the game, regardless of what class is used.

You have the highest rated Monk kill on spore king, dunno why you're not happy with that. And it's very annoying that you keep trying to say I posted your video for some nefarious purpose. I posted it so people could see, because it is indeed an accomplishment that has never been publicly uploaded before.

It's also really annoying that you refuse to do actual math and look at the absolute top potential a class has. Probably because you're upset that your character will never have Shroud of Longevity, and thus never will be completely BIS. But that's why intelligent people don't equate gear with skill.

Community-wise more people disagree with Zuranthium and Samoht anyway
Absolutely wrong, but of course you'll keep trying to strawman and ignore facts as always. And importantly, thoughts about tier system is separate from individual opinions about the strict definition of the word "solo". Don't confuse the two. It's something that's happened too much in this thread.

Zuranthium has taken it upon himself to write a Star Trek/Everquest/Game of Thrones fan fic
Someone hasn't watched Solo Leveling yet! You should go do that, so then you can understand all 4 of the references.

You're welcome for the free content, please pre-order my novel when it goes on sale.
