    Are you forgetting that those dungeons can be ran by players who are levels 59, 69 and 79 respectively? The maximum ilvl that they could be going into those dungeons for the first time at those levels are 145, 285 and 415. And that's with a full set of crafted gear.

    Gubal and Mt. Gulg ain't as bad but Albania is the scaling on SB leveling gear is a much bigger curve to a point a drg can have more defenses than a ilv270 tank so i'd say the SB ones need to be relooked at and adjusted others ain't so bad. But i'm happy we got some level of mitigation regardless \o/ no more ironworks for Holminster

    Is it bad that the biggest issue I had with the ilvls listed is that Gubal is 120 instead of 130? We almost had a perfect multiplication table...

    Depends on which gear they have. The i395 NQ GNB weapon has -11 WD, -30 STR and -31 Vit compared to the blue/green i390 weapons. The NQ chest piece has -108 Def, -27 STR and -30 Vit compared to the i390 blue/green chests. If they have weapons, chest or legs below the ilvl requirement, but have accs with ilvls to compensate, the difference will be even worse.

    You have no business being in any of those places in the previous expansions gear at level 59, 69, and 79. How about you get off your lazy butt when you're 50, 60, and 70 and go to Mor Dhona, Idylshire, and Rhalgar's Reach BEFORE heading into the next expansion so you have that gear mostly replaced if you are leveling. You do have poetics tossed at you like crazy for a reason, use them and then replace them. You have no right being in full unaugmented gear (and below if you have a smattering of terrible gear) at those levels.
