Ilevel requirement needs revision

What about if I wear DEX gear as a tank?

DEX has a place on tanks, it's called tank-melded gryphonskin rings etc, and dex melds after parry and acc on heavy wolfram. Jussayin.

I know dex affects block and parry rates. What he is saying what if I choose to wear all crafted ilevel 70 dex accessories in dungeons for the sole reason of spirtbonding. Will the OP do the same to me since I'm not wearing the "appropriate" gear?

Well, the ilvl 70 dex accessories have str as well, and whether or not they have vit melded to them isn't that big a deal for dungeons. If I was a healer and saw a tank in unmelded ilvl 70 str/dex accessories I'd be like OK, this tank will have less max hp, but take damage a little slower than someone in i90 fendings. I'd consider it a lot more reasonable than a drg in crafting gear.

What if it was the healer or dps? Wearing ilevel 52 crafted gear.

Actually I was more referring to i45 Dex accessories...like Spinel set.
