It's not a great feature and I'm glad the developers realized this when they added iLevels. Yes, some people won't use it for discrimination but there are alot who would. Take my bard, finally hit iLevel 81. Will I be going higher? Probably not. Why? Because there's not much better than what I've already got on, that's why. If I tried, I'd lose in other stats that are a bit more important than iLevel, like accuracy. Can't hurt what I can't hit. Too many people treat iLevel like it's the only stat to worry about when it's not. It's just a representation of the average level of your gear, not the level of the stats on that gear. Maybe if people could see past all that we'd have iLevel in the examine window.
