The REAL item level requirement for extremes (becuz dev where drunk)

[Crevox]

The item level requirement stated in game assumes skilled players, that's all. If players are not doing their DPS rotations properly, not holding aggro/tank swapping, or healing efficiently... then yeah, maybe having more gear (like the values you stated) will allow them to overcome it despite being less skilled.

lets assume you go minimum ilvl with the highest possible DPS output on everyone in garuda. I guaranteed you you will not be able to defeat the 2nd sister before time is up. and even if you could the twister phase would last so long that the fight could easily take a good 20+ minutes... (I tried with a very competent group in the mini ilvl requirement) I think we ended up wiping from starvation of utilities since the fight lasted 25+minutes due to only been able to hit garuda inside the eye of the storm per twister phase, since the sister died as she was warping and WHM had to DPS to not run out of time.
