    It's a nice start but I will say some of these dungeons will still be a pain at those ilvls.

    That's why it's a minimum ilvl, not a "dungeon is now faceroll" ilvl.

    I'm happy as long as it gets rid of the people in Sirensong rocking a set of original AF/Ironworks. I'm sure I am not the only one who's run into that.

    If you're in 260 in castrum you're going to get blown up. I feel sorry for the healer that has to heal you.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    In SHB? Hardly. Dungeon's been nerfed on top of the sheer potency changes + substat scalings when syncing down basically eradicating any sense of difficulty if the tank & healer know how to hit their Cooldowns. MY bf ran through the place on his 260 (well, mix of 260 & 270 shire gear, but closer to 260) GNB with me healing when he was leveling. It was such a huge breeze; only time it ever got remotely sketch was the final boss, but his buster has always hurt anyway. Even had plenty of time to dps through the dungeon too.

    Now if you get both a tank AND a healer that don't know what their OGCDs are I'd be inclined to agree with ya.

    Can we do that for Trials, too, so people are properly geared for Titania?

    They still fail the DPS check at i460 lol.

    All dungeons should just give guaranteed gear drops. Or do they? Not really sure XD

    If you cheese your ilvl, you'll only increase the chance you'll get Aurum Vale or Dzemael Darkhold

    Y: I usually compare FFXIV with a theme park, but the Forbidden Land of Eureka won’t be a place where everyone would want to go. For example, there are people who don’t want to go to horror houses because they don’t see the point in getting scared on purpose. For example, on a date, the boyfriend might want to invite the girlfriend to go the horror house, but the girlfriend just doesn’t seem to find it fun. In other words, it’s not like everyone wants to go to the horror house, but there are people who just love the adrenalin rush they get from it. Think of Eureka as something like that.

    260 in Castrum Abania? 270 starts to show its limitations in Bardam's Mettle, let alone Doma Castle.
