as long as items have so much more effekt in the game than your skills/stats, it won\'t be possible, to stop powergaming.


exp.: Fighting with swords:

a young (sword =3) char got lets say a 54 slash sword from a friend.
he will do more damage than on char (sword=10) with less good weapon ( slash in mid 20th)...

so for the older hcar (without friends) the solution is clear:
he must kill as long monsters, until he finds a 54 slash-sword....this player won\'t care, if it take him 1 oder 15 hours to find that weapon. he\'ll fight until he got it....
-------
maybe if weapons would resquest a certain level, this could be prevented....
