Hello to everybodies.

my SW on Drider has 3k TIL (you know what i mean)
but when I wear Orcus set with blue artifact (i was too lazy to upgrade) my IL is about 2.799

I'm sorry. I buyed Orcus for 3 200k ad, I have 3x12 bonding runestones for 5 600k each.

and hear "sorry, dear, you're too weak for this epic"

FTW. I spend 20 000 ad for damage (exclusive of R10 encha's on equip, exclusive of R10 weapon encharment and other i have, epic air archont)

nope? too f...ck weak?

I understand - find a constantly party and run with them but people in Protector's Enklav still looking for a 3, 3-5k DPS.

(early I ran eDemo with my 3k DC with 10 and 11 b. runestones, and what you think? ONLY 3 DPS from group were above my DC in damage list. it was party 3k + but mostly of them were weakly than my DC (even it time I buffed them))

Don't you think TIL have a seriously problems.
when you looking for a group you look on it's pet and guild's boons too IL doesn't mean anything.

    Simple, don't run with PUG. Run with friends and/or guild mates. BTW, what is the bug?

    Companions, companions gear and companions enchants do nothing in regards to your item level. They increase your power substantially of course, but it is not represented in your Item Level. Boons are the same way - impacts your power level but does nothing for your item level. You need to get gear on your toon itself to boost it.

    As the post above says, it isn't perfect, but it is something. Otherwise you have fresh level 70's in blues with a couple boons getting stomped in CN and complaining why the game sucks so bad. Powerleveling isn't as much of an issue anymore, but they do want you to not skip content and gating it behind IL is as good as anything.

    If you want to argue that IL should take into account boons and companions and mounts....thats another topic. The difference between 2 level 70 toons of the same class could be almost as big as the different between a level 30 and 60.

    IL is still an effective method to gauge your team's success rate in PuGs. Even if you don't believe in ILs, just let them run into a couple of mobs and you can predict what will happen on last boss fight. Can't talk on CN, but MC and VT, just dodge and requeue, it saves you a lot of time agonizing over a fail run.

    I see no bug here. Granted, IL has it's flaws and limitations, but they have to gate the content on something and that's the best they can do at the moment it seems.

    All I see is the game doing exactly what it's supposed to be doing: Gating content properly. 2999 < 3k, so you can't enter. You even admit being the problem:

    but when I wear Orcus set with blue artifact (i was too lazy to upgrade) my IL is about 2.999


    Oh i was wrong with Orcus I have 2,799 only and I can go to CN of course) but lot of time I run in random just because)

    yes this is what i mean.

    and what is derivative of this - you can't know if this 2.7 can doind damage/healing/tanking or not.

    why should i spend 20kk ad just for invisible things? but if i'm not - i will not having so good dmg as i want. and it isn't in my TI level

    The sad thing is that while the old Gear Score rating was bad, it still was better than the current system.
