Where is this data from?Not really; the assumptions that the elf continuously improves himself and never gets killed don't work, they are too strong. Once a being reaches, say, 25th level, his level gain is limited by the amount of epic challenges available. This limit is usually much more stringent than the age limit.Even with the weird assumption that if you want XP when you're 30th level you just have to go and get them, humans have a huge population advantage. This means that even if an elf was three times more likely than a human to get to 35th level because he can take his time doing it, there would still be just as many humans at that level simply because humans vastly outnumber the elves.As for the elves conquering the world, I find it *very* unlikely. In a war, their age advantage is 100% irrelevant, while the low population and reproductive rate is a killer.</blockquote>
