And from what I read, as you get higher, its actually worse, since the +1 jumping items don't disapear, they stay in the pool along with the +3 agility +1 SV piece we all want.


That's bad logic, and innacurate. The AEQ rolls get better at higher levels. While +3 pieces are available at 25, they occur more frequently at 30+.

At the very worst, one could argue that the rolls are equal. In NO WAY could you logically argue that 30+ rolls are WORSE than lower level rolls

You have more good items out there, but the crap doesn't disappear. Yes, you can get a better item at 30, but with the crap staying in the pool, your odds of getting the good items isn't better.

I'm not saying don't shop, I'm just saying that 25 isn't a huge downgrade in item quality, so you should have the same standards always.

No, the crap doesn't disappear, but the % chance to get the crap drops as well.

From the AE item threads out there, it seems like items show up kind of like in a shifting bell curve. Using hypothetical numbers, say at level 10, you'll mostly get lvl 10 appropriate items; you'll also have chances to get lvl 1 and lvl 20 appropriate items but those will be on the farther ends of the "% chance" spectrum. Same with level 20... you can get lvl 10 and lvl 30 stuff, but getting items that far off your level will be lower. If you get, say, a 15% chance to get a +1 tackling/+2% break block item on a lvl 10 LB, that same 15% isn't going to be the same when that LB is at level 30. It'll drop to say 2-3%, and that 15% chance will be replaced by items such as +2 vision/+1 Quick Cut.

Again, all hypothetical numbers for the sake of argument, but you get the picture.
