Elitist Much?!

[CUTS3R]

3. This game needs to add a feature where you cannot enter a dungeon until your armor meets minimum requirements.

Afaik, devs talked about implementing a Combat rating system anytime "soon".

No. When I see people get killed by stupid, easily dodgeable shit, I get pissed off. Call me elitist if you want; I'm there to get my progression done and get my gear, not to watch you be a ditz for four hours and giggle about it at my expense. Believe me when we say that you are the only one laughing at your mistakes (in most situations)

If you want to avoid the gear checks and crap, then you should be an a progression FC where you can learn and progress where people will hold your hand and help you up when you screw up. PUGs are there to get their shit done with people who have the gear and have done it before.

^This.
