Why is Yoshi P turning his back on the playerbase that loves this game the most?

But this way it just give more incentive for people like me to leave the game.
It is called end game dungeons and expert roulette for a reason, people should DEFENITLY have to gear up for them if they were absent the last patches.

4 man dungeons aren't really high end raiding content though. The problem lies in raids not being satisfying for players in your position.

The minimum ilvl for the current dungeons are i210, I'm not sure how a returning active subscriber could be under unless you haven't actively played for 2-3 content patches. In that case, they could just run Midas until they're i220 relatively easily or buy crafting gear if have enough gil.

I spent 5 million gear on that 250 gear and i was 4 ilvl over the expert dungeon level restriction. I didn't complete my mains' set last content patch because it was tedious. If you are more than one content patch out you have to grind the level 60 roulette before even attempting the current content. Not very good incentive.
I had this problem happen to me this patch, you obviously have never left during a patch or you've left after you geared yourself up. Why are you telling me what I should be on when I logged on and I couldn't do it?
