It's honestly insane when you consider they balance drops/crafting and build progression not on the average player.

If the average player does half a div an hour, are they expecting top players to be doing 500div/h?!?

I think you highly overestimate the average player!

Also, you might think 1000x is high, but in PoE1 right now the disparity is much much higher than that.

I believe the income disparity (per hour) between the top player and average player should be 1000x

I believe we shouldn't force you to play something you don't want want just to get more loot per hour. (near 2h 9m mark)

Please, Johnathan, pick one? There'll always be a meta for best build, and that forces the best players play the meta build just to get top loot per hour.

I don't accept that there will always be a best build. There should ideally be good builds with many classes / skills.

Hopefully you would agree that we were able to get a reasonable variety in PoE1 with top tier builds.
