It is semantic quibbling to claim that because you earned the Cavalier title you're entitled to Cavalier content. The game isn't going to go around naming everything based on all of the requirements of the content. Its not going to be "Cavalier level 55" content just so players can't claim that all Cavalier players should be able to do all Cavalier content.
No one is going to listen to you.Kabam are not going to change this system.
What you don't get to say is that the requirement shouldn't apply to you because you deserve to ignore it because of some other accomplishment. You don't get to choose your own path through the game. You don't get to decide which progression requirements you should do and which you should be able to ignore.
Maybe you think your complaint is innocuous, that what harm can it do to the game to lower the requirement. There's at least two. First, eliminating progression prerequisites devalues them. If people can ignore summoner level to achieve higher progress, it makes summoner level less important. Right now, it is more important; it is something to work towards, and for many players to aspire to. At the end of the day, this game is a bunch of arbitrary screen pixels. The game has to *invent* aspiration out of thin air. It has to invent the desire players have to get anything at all. And every time you paper cut one of those aspirations, you devalue the game in a difficult to measure individually but very real way.
Second, this is a stepping stone on the road to players not just feeling entitled to the content, but also entitled to the rewards at the end of the content. It is a *very* short drive from "I deserve to do this content" to "I deserve the rewards from that content" to "the content is too difficult and I can't get rewards I deserve to have." Once people decide the game should shape itself around their own personal situation, it becomes easy to skip all of the middlemen and just say "I play the game, I spend my time and money, I deserve whatever I think I deserve."
And honestly, the end of this road is incredibly annoying to many players of the game, so much so that unless it is extremely well deserved complaints of the form "I deserve X so the game should change so I get X" tend to be reacted to like they are a disease. They are going to assume, with some justification, that if you're willing to complain you deserve access to Cavalier content without doing the prerequisites today, you'll just become one of those people who say "I'm Cavalier and yet I can't complete Cavalier content so the content is broken and should be dialed down" tomorrow. If you aren't one of those players, then prove it by expending the relatively trivial amount of effort it takes to level from 48 to 55.
And I don’t complain about content being to hard. If I can’t do it I don’t.
IF the title Cavalier was obtained after Lv55, or IF ALL Cavalier content was barred to Lv55+, that would make sense! But what mystifies me is that fact that I was able to access 2/5 of these Cav side events so far, 3 have been barred to me due to levels, 2 have not. Did I find them challenging? Not particularly. Did they compare to the Cavalier difficulty, which those under Lv55 can access? Nope, imo Cav difficulty is far harder. I’m not arguing that it should be removed, Kabam make the rules around here, and they do an excellent job regardless of all the bugs. It’s an incredible game. It just confuses me as to why some parts are barred off, some not. It seems illogical. Perhaps there are just reasons that I can’t fathom.
Just my opinion
