No way is Ro or Wild Yet Tasty harder than V2.
Jersey V5, height dependent
Aquaduck and Relaxed Atm-- V1, height dependent.

I am assuming you are joking about To Defy (V0-? VB? maybe? The V scale doesn't go there.)

But I'm with you on Hippocrite V13. :)

This chart is kind of a cool approach to the subject of this thread, showing the spread of different v-cruxes through different routes.

Yeah, cool chart. The x-axis should be simply "route length", though. It would be more objective that way, and you would *instantly* see the niche that the red fills
