iLvL of RMHM

How does the vanguard works?
I got the ilvl of 422 with items I did not etch because I am gathering mats for VM8 and dont want to etch Guile.
Therefore I use my old SF healer glove, but I dont reach the ilvl of 422 if I equip it.

Before Lakelith died I changed into my guile equipment to reach 422 and get the vanguard.
No luck, I did not receive and vanguard rewards.

Can someone explain it to me pls? :)
Or can EME lower the vanguard ilvl like in the last patch. For IM it doesnt matter, but for completion.

  • It takes a little bit for your ilvl to register back to 422 so you have to do that sooner.
  • That issue you having has been a common one since lvl 65 expansion for every single healer because Healers hardly need to change their gear. In general you hardly gain any difference going from SF to Ambush for example. (More power... yay)
    ilvl make it so hard for good healer to actually queue, I'll agree with you anytime on that, even more lately since ilvl required is based on noob who can't clear dungeon with lower gear.
    That being said, for vanguard quest, it takes between 2 and 5 min to detect your gear, you gotta wait to see "You have new vanguard quest" message pop up before starting the fight.
  • So sad that you need ilvl 422, I got slaughter on my priest and have cleared RMH mutiple times. Not receiving a reward, because "my ilvl is too low" is just straight up stupid...
  • I know the feeling. when I cameback, my mystic had worth gear... imagine how painful it was to gear up getting not a single reward -.- I did up to DFHM with wroth...

    Healer doesn't need free given gear to play, and only bad people do it this way anyway.

    Thank you? I'm most likely way better than you and I did Desolate garden. Free stuff is better than expensive stuff!

    You "way better" than I? Based on what, please tell me. Every contents right now are babysteps, last patch you could of gone idoneal to slaughter or Dreadnaught to Imperator farming if you wanted. Doing step by step, accepting free gear on a silver plate only makes bad people hunt for harder dungeons. Casual players who don't care about gear will struggle to get these gear and that's actually more acceptable than giving free stuff.
    You know why so many people think end-game contents are hard or challenging while they're not? Because they never learned to play their classes, everything is so easy, so all you have to do now is level (way to fast) with OP gear (mostly avatar), can't really wipe on a solo running dungeons but people manage to wipe a whole group, and get to lvl 65 anyway, where the very same thing happen. BoL isn't any easier than RMHM or SSHM was.
  • Ive been Farming RMHM everyday but the fact that even though i have no problem in that dungeon with slaughter gear, the VG isnt rewarding me even though its totally capable, so i have to waste $$$ to get gulie even though it lowers my heals and really doesn't reward much for skills but for gear... QAQ

    Try logging out to the characters screen, and log back in. I think that worked for me when I had this issue.

    ??? Elitist? I'm a retired player who actually left because contents got to easy. I'm not elitist, i'm just honest and good player in general. Don't mix up popularised term you actually dunno the meaning :open_mouth:

    Tera became really easy years ago, but at some point in the early release of a patch (before all the nerfs) you can find a little challenge going undergeared. If you base yourself on the ilvl of this game, as this thread is about, you always run dungeons overgeared. This phenomenon also hurt healers who, as Mieax stated, better ilvl doesn't mean better healing. Stats are different, but what you gain from +15 is insane compared to going back to +12 item like Guile. Honestly, Lucid is better than Guile for healers... but the ilvl force them to change in order to IM or invited thru pugs.

    I don't see the point in complaining about low tier being rewarded... It's basically the new Idoneal. They could have basically just kept buffing Idoneal every patch, but instead they just make the old mid tier the new low tier and serves as a minor resource sink and sort of introductory since that low tier needs to be enchanted, mw, and rolled while Idoneal (or Fulminate) didn't. The gear being given out is largely irrelevant anyways, as even in RMNM a little normal attack on say the 2nd boss can 1 shot a cloth. So, doing that in Idoneal means nothing since being in Slaughter changes nothing.
  • Bol not ezier than rmhm and sshm was. Psst. U r exaggerating. It was impossible for me to get wiped in bol 3-4 years ago.
