How about this: You get a say 50lvl higher weapon but the mods are reduced by a percentage based on your current lvl and its requirement say like .5% or 1% per level away
I really liked that when I read it... its hard to get 'just right' though: too little punishment and its back to pre level-requirement days. Too much and its a pointless feature... Maybe within 9 levels, -10% each time... only kinda pointless... bleh on second thought I don't like it.
i mostly agree. i like the recquirments where they are, but think they should be greatly reduced or removed for the original finder of an item.
I immediately liked this one too... No harm in it at all. I think we'll gauge it's usefulness after 5.14 and all the dust has settled from 5.14's new skills and 5.13b's monster fixes.
