The game is more dead than it was pre-3.1

Just a quick snip on 3.0 ilvl gear bloating problem. The gear and ilvl upgrade are coming so fast and so furious we don't even need them. Most content can be cleared with i180 gear yet we have i210 readily available for no reason. The entire point on upgrading gear to get ready for new challenge but we are so far beyond what we need it not even worth the effort. I was doing just fine with my full set of i190 why should I spend the extra time farming up something just so I can run DF dungeons and VA? The current ilvl and current content don't match up.

This is a point I find extremely relevant. Why are newly released dungeons tuned towards undergeared players, when most players are overgeared for it? Why is there more content being churned out for "new players" when in reality they have a ton of back-content they could experience that others cannot? I'm not arguing that the new expert dungeons should be more challenging, per se, but rather tuned to a higher gear level.

So that players, who just reached level 60 with their first job, can unlock the new expert dungeons with just doing the previous lv 60 dungeons maybe 7 times and after getting an eso weapon to push their ilevel up from 145 (the ilevel a job can have at lv 59) to 170 (needed for 3.1 expert)

June 2015 Patch 3.0 with Ilvl maximum 180. (Addon Release)
July 2015 Patch 3.05 with ilvl maximum 210. (Alexander Release)
November 2015 Patch 3.1 with ilvl maximum 210.
December 2015 Patch 3.15 with ilvl maximum 210.
February 2016 Patch 3.2 with ilvl maximum 2xx. (will most likely be Alexanter Part 2)

That will be 7-8 month with the maximum ilvl of 210. In current MMO days, this is actually quite long.

Most content can be cleared with i180 gear yet we have i210 readily available for no reason.

Patch 3.1 was about choises.
1. The new Dungeons and Diadem are Catch Up Dungeons for new Player and alternative Jobs, as well as more choises to gain ESO.
2. More Options to gain ilvl 210 to beat Alexander Savage.
3. No one force you to get it, if you are happy with 190, keep it until Patch 3.2

New Progress Content of 3.1 was ThordanEX, which needs you to be ilvl190 to get the chance for an ilvl205 Weapon.

Makes sense. Now getting ilvl 210 Weapon and coming back in 4.0 when people have ilvl 300 Weapons.

Äehm why exactly do you want that 10 ilvl more, again?
