Read my Shinryu example in #3 again. It ties directly in with #4. Gear doesn't only boost your DPS, it also buffs your vitality. It keeps you from dying to unavoidable damage which you should've survived.
And now that I think about it, they also need to revise the ilvl weight. Because people do go into Shinryu with high-enough ilvl, but what pushed them up was the right-side which doesn't give vit to non-tanks.
You need to reread what I wrote, or remember what you wrote. I am not talking about level 50 content.
