I've described elsewhere in the thread how Elon doesn't just make basic distracted-like mechanical mistakes, he literally doesn't know what his items do and how good they are (despite having had to craft them or more likely search for those specific items from the trading website). It's like if you met a top-level raider in WoW and he said his (best in slot for his class) items are "not very good" because they don't look pretty, which is the best analogy I can come up with for WoW because I don't play it.
This is all on hardcore league also, so it's not only a lack of game knowledge - Elon would have had to spend dozens of hours grinding experience on his character to get to level 90 without dying once, in a game known to ruthlessly punish players for lacking game knowledge.
Gotcha. I was looking more at the skill part of things rather than the game knowledge part of things. Beyond a certain point, yeah, you wouldn't bump into anyone making that sort of basic error when it comes to understand itemization and game mechanics. Even if they couldn't exactly tell you why a certain trinket mathed out to being the best in slot item, they'd still know enough to go check Icy Veins, see that it's best in slot, and cheerfully equip it.
At the extreme end, there are players in PoE who just look for the items the build guide tells them to look for instead of bothering to understand itemization. But they'd still look at item modifiers, not item level. A max level base can (and most often does) drop with complete garbage bonuses that make it worse than a well-rolled item with a much lower level base.
