Ok, I happened to be leveling another class on my character and I could get the quest but not turn it in until I was level 12. I could pick up the quest at level 6, complete it, but not able to turn it in. I hit 12, turned it in.

As far as the argument of being punished, well you are not being punished. You have to have level restrictions on events, its a reward for those who play a lot. A reward for putting in hours and weeks into the game. Does it suck not getting what you want when you want it? I at first thought crap, I will only get a few pieces, then I hear it will come out in February! I have no issue now, I am patient. Patiently waiting for more things in game that I cannot have now, but will get soon.

The game is SO much more than gear and dress up. Here is what punishment is, doing dungeons over and over and not getting the gear you want! I punish myself all the time. I hope you all see this as a way to look at it differently, its a reward not a punishment.
