Level 50 Dungeon Level Syncs

No, it's not. That's an assumption about me. You don't know me. You don't know how I treat people in dungeons. You don't know anything about me. Just because I like progression content does not make me an instant undesirable. You are acting in a prejudiced manner.

Did you not write this?

I don't care about the relevance of the content. I don't care one bit. What I care about is all that gear I work my butt of for being relevant.

Oh, while I remember, you asked;

Where did I say I mock people?

When you overgear content by such a vast amount, it makes a mockery of that content and players with level/content appropriate gear. That is how you mock people. Whether you intend it or not it is a consequence of you overgearing things so heavily. Whether you appreciate it or not, the players on the receiving end of your presence in a dungeon can very easily feel mocked since their efforts are essentially irrelevant due to your presence.

Yeah I did. I want what I spend hours each week obtaining to remaining relevant and useful for the small window of time that it even is relevant. I didn't say I want to harass people with my awesomeness or their lack there of. I meant only what I said. Any implicitness you take from it is yours and yours alone. I say what I mean and only what I mean. You're making assumptions.

I am not making an assumption, however you are ignoring the consequences of you vastly overgearing content, remember you already said you don't care about that content being relevant, and only care about your gear and progression. Your gear alone mocks the difficulty of some content.

Having better gear is mocking the content? Lol. That's the most twisted way of putting a negative connotation on it that I can think of.

No, having better gear is not tacitly mocking the content. That notion is ridiculous and the viewpoint narrow missed.

In a game with level sync, using the best end game gear without level sync in place very much tacitly mocks the content. The point of the OP in this topic is to restore the balance to the level 50+ content that the game creators explicitly enforced in pre-50 dungeons with full level and ilvl sync. In that context the gear that is 50+ ilevels above what is needed for a given dungeon does indeed make a mockery of the content.

It may be the case that the content can be blown through, but you can not use that against me as if I'm making a personally mockery of the dungeon. You're taking that interpretation too far and assigning the results to individuals. That's wrong.

I still find it funny that I even offered an optional mode that does exactly what is wanted in this thread, but everyone's all up in arms because I didn't 100% agree with the suggestion.

It's called a middle ground people. Compromise. I don't want to run level synced dungeons, but my option doesn't stop YOU or someone else from doing it. The suggestions in this thread do however prevent others from getting through old content quickly and easily thus forcing everyone to play one way. Why don't you actually try addressing my actual suggestion instead of attacking me every single response? Is that too novel of an idea?

I'm not up in arms over anything. I'm replying to your posts as you write them.

Since the game already explicitly uses ilvl and level sync in dungeons, that should in fact be the default mode for all content to preserve game balance. If you wish to have an optional 'God' mode where your gear and skills are untouched by level sync' that would more correctly be an option since it deviates from the already existing level sync principles used in the game. However much like the proposed optional story mode for Coil that removes the difficulty, and the rewards, 'God mode' should not come with equal rewards.

You just want everyone to be forced to play one way.

Actually, no, I want game balance restored. How you choose to play the game is not relevant to me. How the game itself is balanced and structured is much more relevant.
