Question about item level.

[Magistrella]

So, I'm level 54 WHM and right now I am in the process of getting the complete Ironworks set and then upgrade it to ilvl 130, but with the big difference in normal level and ilvl I don't really know what the ideal level ilevel ratio is in Heavensward. Until when is ilvl 130 okay? When I look at the dungeons description in Heavensward it only says the level you should be, but not the item level.

Well HQ crafted lvl 54 equip is lvl 133, lvl 53 dungeon gear is 136 i think - that gives you a pretty solid idea what's good for the level (not recommended but good) - while lvling you should be able to outfit your class every 2 levels by quests and sidequests - just use that, worked fine for me the first time i went through 3.0 story ^^
