I'm currently looking at a Cinder Drift Extreme group that has been waiting for any healer for a while to start up.

I have a healer.

I also have 46 clears on Cinder Drift Extreme.

But my healing gear is secondary and 5 ilvls behind the PF requirement. Messaged the Recruiter and...no response or change.

Why do parties put high ilvl requirements on easier content? I can see ilvl 510 to weed out the people who haven't put minimal effort into their gear, but beyond that it just hinders group formation.
