I've kicked players for wearing the wrong gear!

[Mimilu]

Personally, I wish they would put item-level requirements in leveling dungeons. >w>()
You wouldn't believe the number of times I've gotten ARR or HW dungeons where people would wear whatever they could just to be able to queue for the dungeon.
I've had dungeons run where both DPS were wearing crafting and/or gathering gear or runs where the tank wore caster/healer gear.
They should make NQ leveling gear cheaper and more readily available too.

Is a vendor in every settlement not enough?
What is with the vendors in the main cities, Ishgard and Reach?
Isn't this enough to be readily available?
Maybe it could be cheaper but that is mostly not the problem.

Pretty sure you can get NQ leveling gear from NPC vendors and your GC for seals for 1- 50.
Levels 51-70 you get armor and weapons from NPC vendors and the MSQ quests itself (want to say it was HQ stuff).

They also have poetics to get ironworks, shire. You also get armor coffers at 50, 60, and 70 when you do your job quests. you get a weapon at 70.

The armor and things are readily available either for Gil, GC, tomestones, leves up till 60, job quest rewards/milestones or even dungeon drops. Short of just handing it out, I say they have many ways to obtain armor and accessories.

If it's a first time player then the only option they would have for gear is venders and alot of them don't sell everything. Venders at lower levels are odd. You stop finding rings between 40 and 50s from what I seen. I had to go on the MB and find them and that can cost abit much for a new player. Someone leveling alt jobs with millions of gil sure.. but a new player isn't gonna have 300k for a ring he can't in venders. I've been in that road and it sucks. But I just wanted to say that happens is all.

In the past that may be true in regards to the MB, we now have world visit now and can shop the MB else where unless prices are like that across all servers on your DC than I am sorry that sucks that rings cost that much where you are at. But seriously use the world visit, shop the MB elsewhere, its your gil, you worked hard for it, take it where you get the best value for it.

As for rings it stops at 28 as npc vendors will not sell anything in ARR at beyond that level not even in Mor Dhona. Level 38 rings are crafted. Then picks back up at 50. There are ring drops in HM dungeons but you are better off getting Iron works rings because you can augment them to an higher ilvl. I want to say 125. If you have Ishgard open for 51-60 characters you get amber things from leves that are used to get accessories like rings, necklaces, bracelets for 51-59. I want to say if I recall, you get coffers as well from quests that give primal accessories.

With the exception of the rings stopping at level 28 and then picking back up at lvl 38 and then from level 50ish. A lot of things are available to the player at little to no cost. Just requires a little effort on the player's part. Tomes are silly easy to get. leves are even more easy. In honesty its a good habit to try to stay current on your gear. I am just tired of seeing folks in weathered accessories at 35 and up (the brand new ring is good through 50 +3 all stats).

Not everyone levels crafters, and tomes require you to run the dungeons that reward them, WITHOUT getting kicked for having insufficient gear.
I'm currently in the same place with my Summoner. I'm leveling up my Summoner through all roullettes, and I'm getting levels so fast it's almost impossible to keep up with gear cause I don't make enough tomes, nor do I have time to spent crafting better gear.
So I do with what I have.

When your online time is limited, it's not so simple to get better gear on the fly, or even make the amount of gil needed to purchase certain items.
And as pointed out, having lower items isn't going to make that much difference in the dungeons, unless you're running with gear from level 10 or something in a level 60 dungeon.


I know some dungeons already enforce having a minimum ilvl score, and honestly I'd love to see this enforced on pretty much every dungeon in the game.
It's not going to stop people from equipping weird/wrong stuff to bear the score requirements, but it will probably be still more efficient than having nothing/ilvl10 pieces.

Yeah I get you. And I don't have that issue anymore but I just wanted to mention I used too and wanted to express it still happens is all. ^^ Friends with icecream?

new players arent going to shop around using out of game websites. Also, the design of the game is not to have max gear in every dungeon. The dungeons exist partially for people to get gear.

Players need to realize the entire roulette system is designed so that experienced players are grouped with in inexperienced players who actually need to beat the dungeon. SE is paying experienced players in experience to help other players a few times per day.
