Can Square Enix stop gate-keeping mid-core contents behind Savage ILvl on release?

Are you not reading my post on purpose?

You know you can fully upgrade tomestone without doing any savage right? This was true for lvl 90 and it's also true for this tier as well, and most likely also true for this upcoming one.

As for CoD, the PF that requires that ilvl is not very frequent. Also, how is that a SE issue if people are the ones doing this 730 gate-keeping thing?

Before you say it, yes I know I can just mob hunt for a couple of weeks to augment all my gear (except the weapon until x.18), but that's not my point. The point is the seemingly meaningless lock-out.

I'm sorry to be rude but please learn to read before replying.

Because if the dungeon's max ILvl was like Unreals where ILvl is always synced down then it wouldn't be an issue?
You're still missing the point.

You silently edited the "Also, how is that a SE issue if people are the ones doing this 730 gate-keeping thing?" part in after I replied btw.

So let me get this straight, you are bitching about SE keeping you away from content when PEOPLE are the ones doing the parties and putting the requirements. Okay, Karen, keep at it.

Well, call me names but people act according to a game/software's design.
And I'm saying this is a bad design, and people are acting accordingly. I don't blame the people because the design allows them.

What's the problem with lowering the max ILvl to 700? Can you explain the reason why it's not OK without using name-calling?

It will not change anything because PEOPLE can still make these requirements.

Also, as a side fact, those 730 ilvl gated COD parties were probably mostly done out of frustration with farm parties who kept progging Towers or seeds due to the high inconsistency of the players. People who engage in savage and hard content overall, are a lot less likely to mess up and thus ensuring the farm to be a lot smoother, at least in theory.
