It’s a little more complex than that though. There’s the time to acquire the gear. Running as a group to get the gems and augments to get your first set of gear, so that you can speedrun 90+, will allow you to find gear that you can use without augments, paragon, etc. far faster than trying to find that gear initially. It could potentially take 40-50 hours to do it legitimately SSF. While this doesn’t sound like much in the grand scheme of things, it’s a pretty significant chunk of time if looking at the player base.
