Long Term Itemization Problems

I agree, the current system is a pretty good checks and balances way of doing things. Orbs are usually meted out on what your build absolutely needs and rarely do you have the excess to never plan far ahead (seriously only my Firestorm mage has enough to spare like that).

I'll just pop in and say that that chart is speculative, at best.

Also, I never envisaged multiplayer using level 50 characters. If we do introduce the new power tokens and push the multiplayer level up, I would expect the final distribution of tokens in MP to be fairly even, i.e. around level 35 in that chart (or more likely, 2 minor, 2 major, 2 great and 2 ultimate tokens). The entire point of the power token design is to require you to use all types of items so it would be crazy of us to abandon that.

The super high levels in that chart were only ever envisaged for campaign play.

So great to hear it!

what if items had a value, and a match is set to a specific value cap. so say the cap is 500, you can only use equipment whos value is = 500 or less? This would make it so it doesn't matter how many items you have, you have to choose them more based on strategy and less on "equip all the best stuff I have!"

Of course, people can do custom "unlimited" games still

Interestingly, we did start with a point value system. We switched to the token system to try to simplify deck-building a bit. I think it was a good move.

Very interesting, I always thought that there will be an option for let's say the top 500 players to be in something like a "diamond league" where they will play with a party of the high level characters (level 35 sounds about right) as the high level content would seem too sweet to just be confined to SP.
Just a thought though

I think it would be awesome to have an super-high level format where you can use level 50 characters at some stage - once we get enough players that we don't need to worry about splitting the player base.
