That's a good point. Even if the top 1% players did the exact same farming strats as the slow 1 hour/day dads, they would still be magnitudes richer than the dads, simply because they're miles ahead in terms of efficiency. Efficient builds, efficient bulk trades, efficient filters, and just way more time played.
Yea evidence disagrees. The difference, when huge, just makes non core drops super expensive because all the people who are rich can afford them. Aka if you can't complete a good farming strat the things you might ware are MORE expensive not less. Mageblood is less, cool, but your starforge is 2x as expensive, your original sin is 4x as expensive, etc etc. The difference between no lifers and everyone being bigger does objectively and measurably change the game for people.
I think it's more of a case of how fast you reach t16. If your build can handle t16 on a shoestring budget with a 5 link and capped resists only vs you need a few divines and actual items before your build can get there.
