- Raise level cap
- equipment with gear scores for the new highest range can not be looted
- raise max crafting levels
- add crafting recipes for the new highest gear score range
- all equipment in the new highest gear score range has a degenerating maximum durability that destroys it eventually after enough use.
- chest and NPCs corresponding to the new highest range drop crafting materials for the new highest range of craftable equipment
- crafters can use up to the maximum number of mods any piece of equipment would allow if they pay the Azoth price. Max Azoth, max Mods
Why this works:
Churn and Item Death, it keeps people engaged with the systems of exploration, combat and crafting in order to maintain their “best” equipment loadout.
Relevance: returning the crafting systems to life as the primary source of end game equipment
Why the current system didnt work:
The crafting system is utterly irrelevant.
The end game equipment acquisition is boring, unengaging, and stagnant.
