@Mast3rMirror As others have said thanks for the maths, however your figures contain a lot of assumptions that sway towards your bias.
The info put out by EA/ dev in the Reddit post delving into this they've always stated that the approximate hours quoted was based on taking advantage of the bonus XP on offer. On that basis you can earn:
225,000 bonus xp per week by spreading your play across all 9 legends (2,700,000 xp for the 90 days of the pass. This equates to 125hrs game time)
4,500 bonus xp per day for the first kill with each legend (405,000 xp over the 90 days)
450 xp per day for 9 kills - not bonus xp, just the regular xp you get from completing the above (40,500 xp over the 90 days)
Leaving you with 99,500 XP left to get to max out the pass, at 180xp/min survival = 9hrs 12mins, add this to the 125hrs from bonus characters and you have 134hrs 12mins total or 1hr 30mins per day.
You're totally right in saying that not everyone will utilise all the bonus's on offer, however this doesn't mean that EA has lied to you, that's just how some will choose the play the game.
That said we've not even touched on xp for damage, additional kills, revives, respawns, finish top 3, game wins, kill the champion etc either, not to mention using the friend xp bonus's from level 12 upwards.
I hope this provides a bit of insight from anyone looking for the other side of the coin. For what it's worth i still think the pass is a little hungry for XP, i'd like to either see more challenges or a slight reduction per level - perhaps to 25,000... plus it makes a nice round number that my OCD likes 🙂
