Who is gonna raid now with the iLvl 110 gear handed to people??

[ispano]

Huh? But 251 dropped inside a raid.

And it wasn't the highest ilvl gear from top end content of the time. That's what you're missing. The "welfare" gear as some like to call it was never on the same level as the best gear you could get.

http://www.wowwiki.com/Item_level In fact it was pretty much the bottom end for raiding of that time.
