I re-posted elsewhere in this thread (probably several pages back now) a sort of breakdown of the kind of thing I had in mind.
Didn't know doing 6 dungeons less than the level cap took 3 weeks, rather than 3 hours. For people who have the zeta, the first step is skipped.

Nexus was out in 2.38, literally a couple weeks before iLvl increase in 2.4. Zeta (lol) was at the end of ARR, where nothing matters anymore. In fact way before Zeta got released in 2.51, they already uncapped final coil.
