[0.981] Items from technologies

from Elemental Forums

You can loot powerful items that are from technologies. For example, Boreal Blade or Champion's Cuirass. The problem is these items don't require level from champions. Imho these items should either require level or not be available as loot.

Which isn't an issue if you consider the rarity on those items.

Almost all rare items require level. This is for balance. The exception is only items from technologies and another couple of items. The problem: your main champion/sovereign gets many powerful items and gives these items to low level champions. Then they gain levels very fast in solo.

Another problem: you always get Rare items from some easy quests: "Escort Noblewoman" gives Ignys Longbow, The Cave quest gives random Rare item.

Love me my Ignys longbow. That is something thats really not appropriate right at the start of the game. I never take it off the whole game. WHich means something is really wrong.

There does need to be some lower level spiffy items as well as these upper level equivalents we are getting. For example we could make the Ignys shortbow. Edit the stats appropriately for the lower level. I think this would be an easy change, as I can mod this myself.
