[QUOTE=DreAAmliner;34640867]I

This is me exactly. My theory is many points "hackers" will stop at PPRO, once they get OWE. /QUOTE]

I've thought about this route as well. I do value the EXP desk as they've helped us quite a bit. But maybe not that much...

My concern is whether PPRO will remain OWE. This was done initially to harmonize with AS joining where their top-tier was at 75K and was OWE. So AA's then-75K-level, PPRO was made OWE. Now that AS have added a 100K level, I could see both 75K levels dropping to OWS.

And, having PPRO would make getting back to EXP (should the OW level change) that much harder due to the reduced LP earning.

Cheers.
