How about some kind of iLvl Sync for CT1-3?

If that's the case, level caps and item level caps should be off by default, particularly for content as old as 2.x

The level cap is left on and the ilvl sync'd to the highest point for that expansion (which is 130 for the crystal tower stuff) because otherwise people would literally 1 shot everything. The bosses would not even have time to do an auto attack. There is a difference between "easier" and a walk in the park.

Yes pls make them harder, lock the ilvl lower and while at it, cut the reward at least 1/3 for gettin a lv 50 raid over a 60/70 if youre 60/70...

Why should people that get stuck with it be punished when all they want to do is level?

Honestly if they did synch the item level for the first 2 It would do wonders for ensureing that people didnt cheat thier item level to get the raids.

No please, Bone Dragon was a horror back in 2.1 and people will NEVER learn how to stay on a plattform (after 6 years it's pretty safe to be sure here). Better to faceroll it than struggling with random parties in ct1 xD

I'm just responding to the point about how things are "intended" to get easier and easier over time. This just seems like the next natural progression step.

Bottom line is that if things remain as they are, the 60 and 70 raids will *never* become as easy as the 50 ones. They simply aren't currently designed to be that way. The 60s and 70s we cannot overgear as much as we can for LotA/ST (technically we can, but it makes far less of a difference as being i130 in LotA/ST does), pretty much everything has proportionally higher HP and takes longer to kill, there's far more mechanics that have a reasonable chance of killing people and slowing the raid down, etc.

Again there is a difference between enemies being pointless and just easier. And at current the 60 raids are as easy as the CT ones. It takes a really bad group for wipes to occur, like an alliance party of people who are new to the raid level of bad. Though the hardest parts, like ozma, can be dealt with by just 2 competent alliance parties.
