I see this response a lot, and it's an honestly ignorant one, and I mean that in the least offensive way possible.

Quick insight: As a progression raider, you and your team take interest in maxing out the potential of your character/job. As a player, you are expected to bring all you can to the team to forward progression, so not having that 190 gear and "just waiting" is not really an option. It's kind of like saying "no need to run in that marathon, if you walk, you'll get there eventually." Not a bad mentality to have, don't get me wrong, it works for some people. But myself and hundreds of other like-minded raiders are sprinters.
