You're sadly giving hefty chunks of the playerbase far too much credit. Maintaining proper ilvl and even learning your rotation are things many players don't regularly do.



It will keep those people from harming the game experience of the rest of their parties, just like how you should kick and report people who get into a duty and then change into low level gear (unless agreed upon before queueing ofc). More positively, it will tell people "hey, you're doing something wrong". Most people will fix it when told that.
No i know about the player in mmorpgs but i dont know how much i really can attribute to "uninformed". If someone does not have gear equiped which is handed to you that even the game auto equips to you. Like imo you need to go out of your way to achive something like that. So if seriously is a issue, and the issue is attributed to uninformed players, i would rather suggest the game should have fix the teaching part. Like i said seems like really bad game design for me. If the base game, which is arguably more of slog then other mmorpgs, even cant you teach that, which is more basic then not stand in bad things, whats the point?

But i digress, its nothing like i am opposing to the idea, just my 2 cents more on the root of the problem. But adding minimum Ilvl to leveling especially in ARR is fine
