[DEV Question] Why is this allowed?

[Narcotics]

So...the party you had happen to be able to carry the person who had the improper weapon then...but what if this happened and you didn't get through it with no issues? What if you wiped multiple times or are unable to clear due to the DF not properly screening gear... is it still a non-issue then too?

What would you do then?

If we wipe because of their gear, it'll be pretty obvious after the first or second wipe. Then we'll just replace them. Like really it's not that big a deal lol stuff happens. That's just life. Sometimes you get a dud in your party and sometimes it works out.

Do you consider the minimum ilvl we have in place babysitting aswell? (as a reminder: that minimum ilvl wasnt always a thing!)

To be honest, yes. Not that I really care that much since the ilvl requirements in MMOs are typically easy to reach but I've never been a fan of them. If they got rid of ilvls I can't say I'd complain.

If they got rid of ilvl reqs, there would be a lot more of these threads complaining about being kicked because they didnt meet dps requirements. ilvl is a way for the devs to attempt to guarantee a successful run of the duty within the time limit.

ilvl is a way for the devs to attempt to guarantee a successful run of the duty within the time limit.

And so is the requirement to actually be on a Disciple of War or Magic and the requirement to have a certain ratio of healers, tanks and DPS in the party and the requirement to have the right character level for the respective content.

We "could" get rid of all of those and just have people queue as a level one botanist for Dun Scaith. Less "babysitting", more groups that disband before the first pull.
