I think that's the point. It's pretty easy to get a decent weapon, but the current system gives weapons the same weight as rings (well, 2 rings for 2 handed weapons). They should either revise the stat weighting (ie. weapon constitutes ~1/4 of your ilvl) or add a secondary requirement specifically for weapons (ie. req. ilvl 80 requires at least an ilvl 70 weapon).
