	We've bee complaining for a long time about the gear desert, how most of us end up wearing the same shit from 15 to 29. Aparently(per the release notes) SSG is attempting to remedy that with this bullshit scaling. They are doing this instead of, ya know, creating some fucking meaningful gear between 15 and 29. So the same problem still exists, but now the numbers will loo different. Fucking SSG.

	I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

	Using same gear from 15 to 29 is just worn items from Sharn sets etc. none of that has changed here. It's just weapons that changed, and I don't think anyone is using a level 15 weapon up to level 29 right? Err right?

IMO Sharn is only good for the 3-piece, the other items are cannith crafted stat stuff. I've been twinking sinceCC change happened when reaper came out though. The devs shot themselves in the face by making CC scale the way it did. It made all random gen necessarily worse. It made them break their own scaling rules to make named items compete---or make sure they had a set item bonus.
