Why do people care so much about my gear level in pre-lvl50 dungeons?

;;;;;;;;;;;;

Even if you are running pre-50 dungeons that have the base level far exceeding that of your equipment, it will make the run longer and harder to complete if you aren't geared properly.

It would be a lot like showing up to play a round of golf with friends and pulling out some plastic golf clubs from your bag when you tee up. They may work and actually drive the ball down the fairway, but just won't meet the equipment standard that is socially expected in that environment.

OP are you trolling?

Aurum vale I could understand, before that the only guy that needs gear is the tank

But in a partyfinder group, entirely up to the leader and if you dont like it you dont join

You should at least make an effort. If your gear is over 20 levels lower than you you're kinda doing a disservice to the rest of your group.

I didn't religiously upgrade my gear for alts like I did my main but I at least looked for cheap upgrades every ten levels.

If peoples start to show up less undergeared in DF groups , maybe game will be less stressful when u have to run in DF .
Oh and about gil - maybe time to start craft or gathering at least ?

I'm sorry, but that is a poor excuse. One Low-Level Duty Roulette will net you easily 10k, and Grand Company seals. Level appropriate whites are incredibly inexpensive and you can use seals (which if this is an alt you should be swimming in) to purchase upgrades.

You have your right to xxx, they have their rights to complain and vote kick you. Fair enough, lol.

And then he has his right to report them for Harassment.

They should be reporting him for harassment, as a Tank I have to put up with a lot more physical abuse as a result of mobs/bosses pounding on me longer than they would with people wearing level appropriate gear. If you can't keep gear within 10 levels of your current level, you're really really not trying at all. Go back to fates plz. I ran Haukke yesterday. The healer had a tanking earring, spiritbond ring, gathering boots no wrists, no belt and turned cleric stance on immediatly after respawning. Aurum Vale is not a roulette dungeon, everyone there is on an alt trying to level up. That's not going to happen so well if your gear is crap.
