So I was unable to enter heroics due to low average item level. Did normals for a few days without winning any gear and auction house haven't had anything available either. Gave up on it and started leveling archeology. Today I wanted to do daily normal and noticed I could queue for heroics, yesterday I couldn't. I haven't touched my gear so why do I suddenly have enough ilvls? o_O

Is there a reason why blizzard haven't made it to go by the actual gear you're wearing instead of whats in your bags?
because If I'm decked out in T11 for one spec and trying to gear up another I want to be able to get into heroics

Yeah, because that T11 in your bag is really going to help you with the other spec that you're trying to perform while wearing quest greens or Wrath epics... oh wait.

There's absolutely no need for snarkiness; he made a very good point. The gear you're wearing when you queue isn't necessarily the gear you're actually going to use. An example would be a someone temporarily in DPS gear for dailies who wants to queue as a healer. Obviously, when they get into a group, they'll switch into their main healing set.
Ah well, I'll have to eat my words then, as I totally did not think of this situation.
I have already run into the problem of having my ilvl "too high" with my 84 tank / healer because the system considers only the best stuff for each slot, and I guess I wont do anymore random dungeons until i have at least one set up to par. In hindsight, if only I had not discovered all the dungeon entrances...
So from my point of view I'd very much like to have an ilvl assigned for each gearset individually, maybe using the equipment manager for this. :)

Does the "Avg iLvl" of your gear get saved or is it lowered when you deposit your gear in the bank?
The armory shows equipped avg iLvl as well as highest, so it gets recorded, but doesnt display.
