    Since when did ilvl prove you're pro? I have the tank ring from coil and the difference is only minute. Heck I still have the allagan bracers from BC1 since I think the weathered stuff has crap stats and I'm holding out for the High allagan bracers in t6. The current system is fine the way it is.

    It really isn't though. There is too limited options right now. While I don't agree with the OPs removal of 'Unique', there is certainly room for more options. It isn't all about tanks either. Some classes suffer from terrible stats on at least one of their options, and the i110 alternative isn't even as good. With only two i110 options, this leaves some i100s better then i110 unfortunately, and others waiting on RNGeezus to bless them in Coil that they clear week after week. Its just poor design overall.

    The difference might not be much numerically, but anyone who looks at your equipment and sees you have a High Allagan Ring of Fending? They know you're skilled enough to clear the hardest battle in the entire game (barring Savage). Anyone worth their salt in this game by this point knows that ilvl doesn't mean much at all. What primarily matters is your skill, the content you're able to clear. I have two different classes at i97 but I wouldn't even try to pretend that I'm top-tier in this game, because I haven't yet cleared Twin.

    Isn't the common retort, "who cares what gear you can get?".

    Only from people who are morons. o.o High Allagan gear usually is a mark of respect. The only time I'd expect to see retorts like that would be if someone starts being an elitist dickbag and lording their gigantic High Allagan E-Peen of Pompousness over the rest of the group.
