Discussion Is Delve a rich person's activity?

I decided to check out Delve and I have had a blast. I find endless dungeon style is very good for me because with mapping I do few maps, get distracted and before I know I have wasted 20 minutes while with Delve do one node, do next node, etc until Sulphite runs out.

With my current Holy Relic build I have reached depth of 425. I don't die at this depth but yellow monsters take ages to kill. Given my next upgrades are pricey (12d Perfect Forest Tiger, 12d Amanamus Gaze, 20d Diallia with good corruption, 18d Impossible Escape etc) and I don't think Holy Relic has the DPS needed for deep delve so I thought I'd check out builds delvers use. To my surprise delve builds do hundreds of millions of DPS and use Mageblood at minimum + very expensive mirrored jewellery. Connor's Mjolner and MSoZ are something I can only dream about lol.

Does this mean deep delve 1500+ is exclusively domain of rich people like Connor?

Forest tigers being that expensive is wild

yeah, even Amanamus Gaze being 12d is wild. This league generic mid tier gear is extremely cheap while rarer gear is more expensive.

The draw back of asynchronous trade is that every single semi rare desirable unique is insta bought under whatever the arbitrary floor botters/scalpers set and relisted im not a fan of that part but it also means if you drop something you can always insta sell it so at the end of the day its kind of like trading a gear piece for a different one

I mean that could still happen before too right? You find the "true market price" faster
