Duty Finder Gear Checker

Even if you meet the min. iLv. requirement, the game should prompt you if you have at least one gear under the required iLv. Even if you do get someone who does meet the iLv., you also have to worry about the people who don't repair their gear. That's even worse than people who have less iLv. gear since broken stuff won't give you the stats.

I want to agree with this but at the same time SE is so averse to restrictions I feel like it's a pipe dream.

I would love to never encounter a DRK using an ilvl 200 weapon in Doma Castle again though...

Takes 5 min to buy a weapon for 15-20k that's better, yes it nq but then again its better than the one they have. I've seen a ilvl90 sch in lvl 53 dungeon and he said he can't get better gear when vendor sells cheap gear. His reply? He doesn't have time.... Okay m8. Nearly all 70's and doesn't have time. Some people man.

I'm sorry, but what do you hope to achieve by implementing this?
This isn't going to make those players you are pointing out become magically better.

Actually yes, it's directly connected. They need to worry about gearing up, they'll start paying attention. Not gonna make them pros, but it's a start towards getting better.

Doma Castle is a leveling dungeon and doesn't actually have an item level requirement, unlike Chrysalis.

To garner SE's attention and ask they implement something other than an overall item level requirement. At least have the main hand a respectable ilevel range as well as still meeting the average ilevel.

Bad players will be bad, but better gear will help cushion the suck a little. If you can at least force them into appropriate gear, that's one less thing you have to worry about.

I've run into multiple trolls/dumb people who were wearing only glamour gear in the leveling roulette, so I'd love if they imposed a min ilvl on all dungeons, not just the final dungeon/trial of each expansion and the content released afterward.

[Niraye]

Until SE teaches nubs to NOT wear certain gear as I've ran into new players wearing gathering or crafting gear in dungeons and think its okay, then it wont be fixed. no where do they explain oh hey you need to upgrade that or have the right gear on for this. Also if i get one of the 3 starter dungeons for leveling roulette and i happen to have a said "glamour" outfit that gives stats and exp gain for wearing all 3 pieces i will wear the heck out of that and still do my job, because first 3 dungeons and the stats really don't matter anyway.

[SerahFarron]

I don't see how this system could be a bad thing. It'll teach newbies to use proper gear for their job and forcing an ilvl check on all gear will stop newbies from using lower ilvl weapons which is the most important slot to have up to date. If you ask in /shout or novice network I'm sure someone is willing to buy or craft you some gear.

Here's a hint "Blizzard tried" to get more players into their raiding scene by introducing Looking for Raid, it failed. People who don't give a shit wont suddenly start if they are forced into doing so, they will just find the path of least resistance and keep on keeping on. SE isn't going to enforce some I level requirement like what the o.p is asking for. More players = more money, even if other players have to deal with it.
