    Incidentally, just healed an i130 tank in Vault last night with absolutely zero issues. Maybe these healers just need to git gud, because I am hardly a first class healer myself.
    To quote myself:

    So from lv 50 to 56 you'd gain 3 def 18 mdef on top of other stats (this is for just head/hands or feet) expected going into
    the vault it's not huge but it is noticeable

    SB: hands lv 60 ilv 270 def 137 mdef 240, hands lv 64 def 156 mdef 273, hands lv 65 def 174 mdef 305, hands lv 66 def 193 mdef 337
    So from 60 to 66 you'd gain 56 def 97 mdef on top of other stats (again this is just head/hands or feet) expected going into Doma Castle that is a lot of survivability lost by not upgrading and this is just on the lower stat increasing pieces let alone wep/body and legs
    This is why you were ok in the vault as that is the start for HW ramping up the dmg dungeons deal, SB starts this in Bardum's Mettle before you enter Doma Castle if your are wearing highest ilv270 gear your are being inconsiderate to the rest of your party you are missing massive amounts of defense, main stats and sub stats.

    Also bear in mind those numbers are for healers, it is way way worse for tanks if you enter Castrum Abania with ilv 270 gear only you have less defense than a drg with full lv 68 gear, let that sink in to why that is a problem.

    Ala Mhigo has an ilv requirement and because it does it negates any argument that they don't want to gate story due to insufficient gear.
