Yeah, I agree that the ilvl requirement is too low. It's the same as with Odin; the fight itself is easy, but can be a pain with half the party being of ilvl 90 caliber. Most of the people should already have at least Soldiery gear, so I think they should've just gone with 100 min.

An explanatory briefing would've been good. SoF is an improvement to the earlier concept though; it is finally forcing people to deal with at least minuscule mechanics. It's not overly hard, but it's not a faceroll anymore, but people are rioting because they don't want to do a single bit of self-assessement to better their play.
