[DEV Question] Why is this allowed?

[Underdog2204]

Its funny to watch your pain in ass, i tested how lower dps will be if i change my 275 weapon to 115 and i lost about 30% my dps and still can beat A12S so like Yoshida says, Casual players can have 270 ilvl and do less dps than hardcore players in 110 ilvl. To confirm this, few days ago i make a new character and beat A11S as "New Adventurer" with crap gear (250 ilvl crafted) when on twitch i can see "statics" who can't beat A9S with full 270 ilvl.

Has zero relevance.

You are still doing less damage than you should be doing, doesn't matter the individual skill level. If you wanna show how little it matters then it should be your entire group using them. Something I doubt was done and the rest of your group had their gear making up for your shortfall.
