Nope! The name of the game is attracting as many new players as possible while giving current players juuuuust enough to keep them from cancelling their subscription. That's why Palace of the Dead was made for level 17 newbies who don't hit a button every GCD and all the monsters in it die in 3 hits. It's also why every seasonal event is as boring as possible and focuses on low level FATEs and doing "talk to this person 3 times" quests. Anyone in full 240 (which at this point should be literally everyone who has been playing the game for the last 2 months thanks to welfare upgrade items) should expect basically no content that actually makes use of their current gear, because the easy mode raid will drop higher item level stuff.
