The Current Status of FFXIV Patch 3.1 and How to Address it Moving Forward

[Kaurie]

Whos overestimating 170? Did you not read the part about no one wanting someone below i200 (as is the case on my server anyway)? I wasn't even talking about alex normal. All alex normal is at this point is another step towards obtaining actual raiding gear (eso or void ark), you could potentially use it to fill some slots like jewelry but it still lowers your ilvl. You can find groups that are just starting savage that could let you join below ilvl200 but that's rare. I've seen only 1 PF recruiting a ilvl190 or higher tank that was just starting savage. Suppose I could get a group for thordian but that's only one piece of the pie. I refuse to touch diadem at this time. I guess thats whats holding me back .

Recommendation - make your own PF - set ilvl to 190 - description: Learning Party A1S.

Prolly will at some point when I cave in and just go for it. I think part of it has to do with me just feeling expected to be at ilvl200 cause of all the PF's ive seen.
