[DEV Question] Why is this allowed?

[enthauptet]

I ran into a BLM with i145 staff and i250 gear on in xelphetol the other day when I was on my alt with i250 spear - I told them to get a better weapon. Even if you are terrible a weapon upgrade helps your dps tremendously.

SE really should put a minimum gear piece iLVL requirement in too, average just doesn't work as well as it's intended. It doesn't have to be crazy but 20-30 iLVLs should be fine imo. You should not be doing creator with a ravana weapon, you are just lazy.
