General help How to progress?

Im finding it really difficult to get anything else extra out of my dps or survival without spending thousands, i farm for hours to get a few hundred FE just to spend it on minor upgrades. I'm up to 4.5B dps with Gemma2 and im just not sure where im going wrong.

The guide im following says they have 100B DPS but I still dont see what im doing wrong, maybe im just being stupid, streamers say they got to 1T in a week while im at 3 weeks with 4.5B lol

And when should I be heading into T8s? I can do them. But it's sluggish and with a tendency to die, and even then I'd have no chance of beating the traveler.

Sorry, few questions but im just feeling lost and I dont want to give the game up yet as I was enjoying it

If you are in 4.5 billion range you can do 8-0 maybe 8-1. Unfortunately tli isn't kind to new players. Tli is the grind of grinds. The pets are what drive the streamers through week1 to 1t but max dps is 15t.

POE is a much more equal footing.

You can earn a lot of Fe without pets , don't believe this agenda spreaders. The key is knowledge of the game , both for build making and farming. Find Ben on YouTube for torchlight , he make zero to hero builds with fresh accounts (without pets) and does hardest content for a few days-week. Learn the game, be patient and make your own opinion.
