    instead of looking at iLVLs, you should consider the following

    Melee Accuracy: 480+
    Caster Accuracy: 430+
    HP requirement: 4k+ on non-tank classes to soak fireballs (if you are 3 stacking, otherwise it can be lower with 4 stacking)
    DPS output: Able to burst down non-fireballed conflags, 4 conflags before 2nd necklace break, able to clear snakes before twintania comes back down, does not require caster LB3 to kill snakes, 4 dreadknight rotations before 3rd necklace break.
    Tanks: 6k+ HP is reasonable as long as you have proper mitigation skills for each death sentence, combined with timely stoneskins/adloquims

    The rest is up to player's individual skill at dodging stuff and team coordination. If you can get all these down then you have a good shot at clearing T5.

    Also like to point out those first t5 wins where done before RoD/Virus nerf. There is also the LB nerf which is pretty nasty if your strat relies on LBs.

    To actually answer your question, your PLD and i74 healer need more gear. I assume you are asking about iLevel because your group is planning for it and are already studying mechanics, and want a decent benchmark for when you should start makin serious attempts rather than idle boasting and pimping. For reference, my first clear came at iLevel 88, but that was a few weeks and a fistful of drops after my static had broken up. Much of my learning on the fight came at what would have been iLevel 82 or so. Basically, you guys are a few lucky drops or myth pieces away from being ready.

    Statement: BG and my FC did it in mostly DL, it can be done with weeks of bashing one's head against it perfecting rotations and practice in the i70s.

    Conjecture: For a new group looking to maximize time spent, it is recommended to be i80+, make sure healers have SS/Adloq on the tank before Death Sentence and standard avoid T5 Mechanics. The biggest limiting factor would be the Snakes and the hard enrage.
