Not so serious please.
It's not about being serious. Its about getting a group for WP that can SR. SE set it up this way. Since they made the idiotic decision to allow ilvl90 gear to be purchased with tomes that can be farmed from WP, you are going to get end game geared players trying to SR these dungeons in order to acquire said tomes.

The use case for the person that has +1 asking for a WP run is different than the use case who is doing WP as a recent 50.

What should SE have done? Eliminated mythology all together. Make ilvl70 gear the highest you can buy with philosophy tomes. Its already proven that you can begin to do coils with that lvl of gear anyways so that bridge to end game content already existed. It also gives people that can't do coils a reason to do tower when it releases since it will *probably* have ilvl80 gear.

By making ilvl90 gear available, you have diminished the value of drops from coils and have basically made tower laughable.

To the point of this post, by maxing out at ilvl70, you shorten the gap between the various personas that would run WP.
