ilevel check when entering content

[Brightshadow]

Can you guys please implement a ilevel check system that prevents players from entering a low level dungeon if they don't have the proper item level. Im sick of going into level 35 dungeons with tanks that have on level 10-15 gear on then everyone blames the healer because you cannot keep up with the damage the tank is receiving.

There already is an ilvl requirement for most lv 50 dungeons and all lv 50 duties. There should be some ilvl requirement in these leveling dungeons too, though (Qarn and i26 would do fine).

Ever think the tank is running the dungeon to get better gear...?

Everyone knows you can't get better gear from dungeons because they barely drop anything and you'll outlevel the gear in mere hours. The only solution I see to this issue is making gear actually drop in dungeons and not all these useless potions, or making an ilevel requirement for low level dungeons.

That is a good point. I think ilevel checks are fine on 50+ content, but for the lower stuff I am a little weary.

ilevel checks would teach the tank,dps, and healers how to properly gear up.

It would force them to find a way to learn, but it wouldn't teach them... and I don't see the problem anyways. Most of the dungeons can be cleared with 2 people -- up til SV. Even if you have a crappy tank, it's still just an extra tank that you didn't necessarily need. Plus the content is easy even with crappy gear. Plus your earlier argument about not getting gear from dungeons is flat wrong, since they have the best leveling gear. Sure, you'll scale out of it, but you'll scale out of vendor/gc gear even faster, and your original argument was about people needing to get gear (so wtf mate). All in all I'm not convinced you've put a lot of thought into this.

I am not against ilvl checks on low levels, but I feel like, "you are not properly geared" is slowly becoming the number one reason people leave a dungeon and it is annoying. One healer will drop saying the tank is not properly geared, another healer will join and we will beat the dungeon perfectly fine. So it seems to be more like:

"Oh I will actually have to pay attention this time? Nope!" *healer leaves*

ilvl checks on low level would mean an even longer DF wait, I do not think it is worth it.

Plus, I don't want to see every level 35 tank/DPS/healer in the exact same gear, that is boring.

i've run into bad geared tanks in Brayflox Storymode, that were WAY better at playing compared to other well geared tanks.

I'm sick of seeing tanks with dps equipment and strength accessories for low level dungeons.
