How much item level we need for the new content?

I completed it as an ilvl 369 NIN. It came down to the skin of my teeth with the spears, but I did manage.

I did it as an ilvl 373 PLD. Failed the first try, but with the help of the Echo it went better the second try.


Considering that the last mandatory dungeon (The Ghimlyt Dark) in the MSQ has a required ilvl of 360, I think we can take that as the minimum for this duty as well.
The recommended ilvl for this and the start of Shadowbringers when it arrives is likely about 375+

Be interesting to see how long before ilvl 360 gear is available through the hunt vendors to help players get up to speed and finish the MSQ before July.

Never, because the allagan stones for the 360 gear is uncapped already.

It is already pretty easy to get i360 gear, so I don't think they will make it any easier before Shadowbringers is released. Afterwards I expect all the current tomestone gear to be available for Poetics, so everyone can catch up easily then if they need to.

Tore through it like paper as a ilvl 385 WAR. I could have stood in every AoE during that battle and barely had my HP move.

[Banriikku]

Hmm did it with ilvl 396 smn ... no problems.
And 360 gear is so easy to obtain. We got enough catch up mechanics for gear.

BLM 369 I was a bit too short. Around 375 is probably enough.

[Selova]

Did it at 362 on my Dragoon, You should be fine just save your big CD's for the phase transition.
