If you guys have the tech in skirmishes for the NPC's to scale to a characters level or even to the number of people in the group and their basic makeup, why not apply the same tech here instead of using an uber-buff "band-aid" called IG?
The use of IG gives me no desire to do the Epic Quests if I roll a new character anytime in the future because I know I'll get an uber-buff in the end which will, in my opinion, dumb down the instance and make me feel like I really didn't accomplish anything.
