Dota 2 or Farming Simulator, sometimes I struggle to choose which game to play. But what if I could do both? Which hero is the best at farming in the game, regardless of well he or she scales with items? Which hero should I pick if I want to turn this moba into farming simulator?

Fast Farming Heroes Eh?

Scales Poorly: Sand King with Blink and Travels (still if your teammates suck, its a viable option). Axe with Blink and Travels. Dark Seer with Radiance. Treant Protector with Aghs Refresher/Octarine.

Don't scale that well: Alchemist with BFury/Mjollnir. Nature's Prophet with Midas and/or Maelstrom. Magnus with blink and IAS items, Doom with Midas and/or Radiance, Bloodseeker with Maelstrom and/or Radiance. Leshrac with mana regeneration items.

Scale Very Well: Meepo with Travels. Tinker with travels obviously. Terrorblade with travels and agility items, Naga Siren with Radiance, Travels and Octarine. Anti-Mage with Bfury. Faceless Void with Bfury. Medusa with Dominator. Sven with Blink, Dominator, and Travels. Gyrocopter with Dominator and Travels. Luna with Dominator and agility items. Tiny with Aghs and Blink. Chaos Knight with Dominator, Bfury, and Travels.

There is only one correct, truly correct answer.

Naga Siren.

There are two kinds of people in the world; those who can count, and those who can't.

What about Luna - she's not at a good place right now, but her passive makes for incredible flash farming, and if you buy her a Blink Dagger...

Terrorblade is probably the best farmer in the game, because he literally only needs like RoA and a Yasha to be able to clean through the entire jungle in one spawn. Him being able to get his farming item faster than say AM, means he farms much faster.

Also a hero building a farming item does not mean they farm quickly or efficiently. They farm faster yes, but that's not enough to make them good at farming.

Also Lesh, Lina and SS are also good shout outs. As is SF. Basically pick any popular mid rn and it is probably great at farming.

Since you just can't have enough Chaos Breaker.

you have been influenced by dimony too much chichi, blink is not the optimal for farming luna. blink is a very offensive item on luna, if you pick up a blink, you should aim to gank as much as possible. farming luna should always get helm, stack ancients and yasha into manta. maybe a bkb after yasha and before manta, then a satanic or a damage item(mkb/daedalus/butterfly) depending on what you need.

yasha gives you all you need for movement, because of luna's incredible base movement speed. all you need to take down an ancient camp stacked 4 times is lvl 10 and yasha HotD. this build, by far gives you the best farming capability out of all other luna builds.

MoM blink dagger, on the other hand, is a very offensive build that aims to keep pushing towers as fast as possible and not let games go late.

Actually, MoM-BoT sweeps the floor with all other ~4k networth Luna builds in terms of farming speed. You are too slow with HotD(and it is unreliable) and BoTs are better than Blink and Yasha because of global mobility and superior MS boost. The other thing is that you can only farm with that build, but it's a farming simulator, duh.

If you wan to feel the moneyz literally running like a stream in your pocket, try MoM-Mael Alch. Up to +108 average gold from jungle camps and 180 from a creepwave is tasty to say the least, at least I was like oh yea baby I have <1 KDA and my team is flaming me for "******ed build"(though it is surprisingly good, if you can say "Alch" and "good" in one sentence ofc) but I am still the richest hero on the map.

Anti-Mage
Sven
Luna
Naga Siren/ Terrorblade/ Spectre with Radiance
Pretty much anyone if they build a Battle Fury

would be my list in that order..

Anti-Mage is the epitome of farming simulator. He needs to farm, he needs to farm fast. If you don't have more net worth than they do, you can't do anything but split push.
