Can we get some sort of content gate for level 70 content?

...an ilvl check for all pieces of gear AND a check for the appropriate stat corresponding to the class.

I'm happy they're making some things mandatory for accessories. I got tired of seeing people who were one job but their rings had another stat on them.

Doesn't stop people from earing level 5 earrings and doing cutters cry though. I think the avg iLV is fine but they shouldn't let you in if you're wearing a piece of gear that should have been replaced a while ago. I'm all for that. They have a quest that says get to iLV 15 or maybe that was in beta? I forget..but it made you go back and grab bear.

Even if it's something like a mandatory SSS dummy before the final boss trial, ilvl synced per class. Just something to prevent things like 'ice mages' slowing down roulettes or getting into ex primals?

I'm all for it, but it's amazing they made this game so user friendly for a lot of things that people don't grasp it. I think beyond this a few QoL adjustments to what we have now would go a long way. The game has plenty of ways to help you learn your job but you're over powered or it is optional.

There should be no reason to ignore the adds in a dungeon as early as Copperbell Mines on the last boss. There's also no need for a ton of individual groups of 3 mobs prior to a boss when we have very little AoE.

Guildhests were an excellent way to introduce mechanics you were going to face, they could have continued with that.

Then by the time they get to the striking dummy to clear for EX content of that type they're way a head of the game. I think it would cause uproar from the vocal minority but ultimately it will let people understand the basics.

There's a lot to be said for getting a few FC buddies and running, that's always optional and a good way to get stuff done. At the same time if you do end up doing a pick up, this is something that would help with the overall learning. A phase may not run on as long because the DPS know how to use their cool downs, or even have them / the right gear.
