Talk:Equipment

Tenboro states "All generated gear has an inherent "gear level". While this doesn't actually affect the inherent stats of the item, it will be used by the equipment scaling/balancing subsystem to increase gear power with level. And no, you probably won't be able to equip items with a gear level above yours - although it's possible I'll build in a down-scaling to the minimum of the gear level and the character level, seeing as the system easily enables that."

"The stuff in Italics needs to be fixed as Tenboro did just that..." What? -cmal

-He implemented the bolded part which nullifies the previous part. So, something needs to be written about the down-scaling of higher level equipment.

-Isn't that the stat scaling he put in way back in the early days of 0.3? --cmal 22:26, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

-Yes, but the description above makes it look like you cannot use anything above your level.-Boggyb

-Okay, I've done some copy-editing to spiffy up that section and corrected the stat scaling. The section about suffixes needs to be updated and corrected and I think we should create a new page with info about the known effects. We also should come up with a more appropriate name for them instead of just calling them suffixes. --cmal 00:42, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
