I forgot to mention that the unsync opion should be locked behind the completion of a duty.
And how does your argument affect mine? I see no context.
Because, in ARR, the only way you shouldn't have the required ilvl and had to rely on an "average party ilvl" would be because you skipped content. Why would you defend skipping content ?
If so, what's the point ? If it's not to carry first timers, why do you want that option for unscyned parties ?
It's not like skipping content, but it makes it easier to carry someone...
I never said, i want or demand it. Don't juggle my words.
I just suggested that this could be a solution for easier carries.
I just thought about the problem from OP and had a idea for that without skipping the whole content.
But someone tries to start a witch-hunt.
No, it's not. Joining an i50 player with your i200 character in Wanderer's Palace is easy carry. Joining him in Final Coil is skipping a whole bunch of content.
Indeed, you didn't. But I still don't see what's the link between locking undersized behind completion and what the OP want.
To be fair, i've seen DF players with awful ilvl gears in dusk vigil and the aery like using ilvl 50 and 70s gears.. I healed both of them and they need extra care to stay alive.. But it is still doable..
Fix it for you..
I also disagree with the idea of making lower tier gears obsolete, more or less if the idea is implemented, there are less reasons in having low lv gears exist unless for desynth or glamours..
Actually, after HW, the ARR job quests are giving out the i50 set AND i90 with the 45 and 50 quests so...yeah, a player just coming into the game would get a(n almost full) i90 set just by reaching 50.
