DPS check is kind of challenge too ofc.

At this moment I have no problem with Alex DPS checks and I feel like I stated my suggestion wrong.
You do realize that by making it a gear check, and putting gear before it's level in, means you have to get that to meet the gear check.

If the zone required 180 with 190 weapon as minimum designed for the entire raid, and it was completely capable of being cleared at that point, if your raid was struggling, you'd be forced to do normal *anyways* because normal gives 190 gear and you need that bump to get over it.


People also gave this excuse in WoW, but the *only* reason their complaints were remotely justified was that the gear gave set bonuses, and you could use gear from the LFR sets to complete them. They changed that in WoD, and it pissed off more than were upset they had to do "welfare raids" for set bonuses.
