Level Syncing isn't the best solution

[Bourne_Endeavor]

I believe the biggest change, and therefore nerf, was that when you sync down now, you get synced to HQ gear values. Before, you got synced to NQ gear values.

After this change was the biggest noticeable change in speeding through synced older dungeons.

This makes a bigger difference than some will realize.

That would do it. Although, I suspect there have been stealth nerfs since Dun Scaith is noticeably easier and were running it with i270 gear. Unless the sync/stats are even higher than Creator Savage gear. Either way, I wish they could sync content to either the highest relevant ilvl or even better, the ilvl of the gear that drops. 270 or 260, respectively in the case of Dun Scaith. I know it's old content, but I miss seeing it actually pose some type of challenge.
