I foresee a problem with this change in ilvl requirements...

[Celaine]

Edit: Was just informed by a friend that it's only roulette changing not WP. Also see new GC gear (looks like anyway) in the new items list that would change things as well. Feel free to disregard this now. I was just concerned for newer folks.

Notably, the requirement to get into Wanderer's Palace is now ilvl 55. Here lies the problem: New level 50 players are not going to be at ilvl 55. They'll be hitting Wanderer's Palace as the place to *get* the i55 gear in stuff like their AF and probably a grand company weapon. Which is not enough to bump them into the required zone, as their jewelry will still only be zircon/amber/etc, all around i48.

I'm guessing this is the dev's way to push players to shop for crafted militia gear and/or vanya/gryphonskin/astral/rose gold etc or to make sure that CT1 is still being run for drops. But it still seems like a cruddy thing to do to new 50's.
