In a positive way this is good, back in 2.0 people were whining and complaining, shunning players for walking into DF and groups with horrible gear, now that ilvl 90 is easy to get NOW people complain that it's to easy? i would think people would be glad that your group isn't being draged down by someone in ilvl 56 sets.

As far as skill goes, that can't be taught, if someone is a good player they will be a GOOD player, gear does not change the skill. Hell a friend taught me all tricks of playing whm and he was clearing coil turns back in 2.0 with his body being ilvl 60 for a while and on PS3. (rest of his gear was on par tho) You don't magically become good or bad just because of gear.
