    BUT... I honestly can't get too worked up about it. Anyone who pays any attention to the Zen/AD Exchange can see that there's just way too much AD out there right now.

    I saw worse. It is only 6 million pending. It took 2 to 3 weeks to get the Zen.
    There were over 11 million pending before and I got my Zen over a month back then.

    On the other hand, if people are quitting, 6 million pending could take a really long time.

    Oh, I know. I've seen a 13 million backlog. Just because there's been worse doesn't mean the current situation isn't bad, though.

    Uh oh! I just realized that the math I've been doing is misleading. It assumes that each of the tasks is being done sequentially (one after the other) rather than concurrently (all at the same time). Of course these tasks will be run concurrently.

    Collecting and restarting each task as it finishes:
    [COLOR="#000000"][COLOR="#A52A2A"][B]Rank 20[/B][/COLOR]
    
    1600 / 16 = 100.0
     800 /  8 = 100.0
     400 /  6 =  66.7
    -----------------
                [COLOR="#008000"][B]266.7 RAD/hr[/B][/COLOR]
    
    
    [COLOR="#A52A2A"][B]Rank 25[/B][/COLOR]
    
    1600 / 16 = 100.0
     800 /  8 = 100.0
    2000 / 24 =  83.3
    -----------------
                [COLOR="#008000"][B]283.3 RAD/hr[/B][/COLOR][/COLOR]
    

    Collecting and restarting all three tasks at the same time (as soon as the longest-running task completes):
    [COLOR="#000000"][COLOR="#A52A2A"][B]Rank 20[/B][/COLOR]
    
    1600 / 16 = 100.0
     800 / 16 =  50.0
     400 / 16 =  25.0
    -----------------
                [COLOR="#008000"][B]175.0 RAD/hr[/B][/COLOR]
    
    
    [COLOR="#A52A2A"][B]Rank 25[/B][/COLOR]
    
    1600 / 24 =  66.7
     800 / 24 =  33.3
    2000 / 24 =  83.3
    -----------------
                [COLOR="#008000"][B]183.3 RAD/hr[/B][/COLOR][/COLOR]
    

    Looks like rank 25 RAD farming might actually be the most efficient in all circumstances after all. Whether the difference is worth the effort is up to you. :)

    Yeah, rank 25 leadership is absolutely better for people who aren't going to obsessively babysit their tasks. I'm not sure where it will ultimately shake out for me, since the levelling process is done much faster via the obsessive babysitting mode of operation.
