We need an ilvl/gear requirement for leveling dungeons

[DPZ2]

If someone is doing their dailies though they should have a freaking ton of tomes

See, that is an assumption that players leveling through the MSQ are doing dailies ... a mistaken assumption.

The players SerLuke and the OP brought up generally have multiple jobs at level cap, which means they aren’t doing the MSQ at this point. If they’re leveling alt jobs, they’re probably doing dailies at some point for the EXP from them. So, where are their tomes going? Because getting poetics for Ironworks/Shire/Scaevan gear isn’t hard...yet they’re still showing up missing half of their gear? Or wearing pieces from two expansions ago in Shadowbringers dungeons?

I'll tell you the reason these people with several lvl 80 jobs dont have gear.They likely dont have that many tomes.They likely are just spamming mostly potd and hoh and pvp(this is what ruins most pvp matches) to get levels without having to purchase gear.Once they've done all that they are hopping into for example dungeons like holminster at lvl 71 in lvl 70 job quest gear which is ilvl 290.
They are too cheap to spend tomes on gear or buy equipment even though they probably have millions of gil.
And why all of this you ask?Because they think they can get away with it and will force others in df to carry them.Until a proper system is in place the best option is to kick them.If the kick doesnt go through just leave the instance.But most importantly do not carry them through the dungeon and encourage this kind of behaviour.
If people want to play like this they should make premade with their fc and have their fc mates or friends carry them in 4 man parties.
