    I would like them to revamp the entire ilvl scaling system. Either has a better algorithm in place to allow content to be more challenging or remake the code. I feel the scaling factor ruins some aspects because even if you are 20 ilvls above content scaling doesn't fully make you match the intended difficulty. I would also expand this into dungeons and say don't allow people to be 2 levels higher than the dungeon and then sync....make it match to maintain that difficulty that was intended. It's ok to be a little better thanks to gear scaling but a walk in the park shouldn't happen.

    Although I partially agree, if 20 item levels didn't make you significantly more powerful then it would make you question the point of getting better gear. Gear progression is important, but only when the expansion is current and once it's the previous expansion, everything could just be synced close to or at minimum to keep it fun. If a new player has friends or social connections, they tell them to get poetic gear so there is no gear progression in previous expansions.
