You are indeed correct, I was reading the requirement for Sophia normal instead of extreme. My mistake.

It does add more weight to your argument. *Contemplates* I disagree with boosting dungeon loot to uncapped tome gear as it would almost entirely invalidate Alex Normal and the future tier of VA but having them closer to 230 would be ideal to allow people into Alex Normal for the current tier. Between the 230 loot you get from the dungeon and the 230 / 240 pieces you make via Lore tomestone from getting dungeon loot, it wouldn't be hard to get to the necessary 230 to get into Alex Normal.
