    I dunno, I remember doing giant pulls at ilvl 90 in WP and AK back when there was only 2.0 and no patches.

    You used to be able to do sub 15 minute WP runs that way.

    And that's back when max ilvl was in fact, ilvl90.

    You could do it at min ilvl, even. Granted, WP used to be done with lock-out exploits and AK with sac runs.
