just to clarify what's going on.
Depending on all of the characteristics of an item, we calculate the overall power of the item, and set a restriction to the same level
So as an example, a level 43 item in power would be have a level 43 restriction in order to use it.
Now, as Regnum has a level cap of 50, one of our coders, years ago, decided to make all the items that where beyond level 50 in power level 50 in restriction.
In order to continue balancing the game we got to study this formulas and checked al of the items....
we where very sad to find out that because of certain errors in the design of some items, some specific variations of certain items had a real level (in terms of item power) of well beyond level 60, 70 even (most of them bows).
the person that made this mistake left the company years ago, so we don't really know exactly why this happened (We believe that she did'nt consider the added damage of arrows that are also a part of the full damage of an archer)
We just can't let certain members of certain classes running around with equipment 20 levels above the rest.
To the ones that got their items altered, let me try to say one thing before you want to kill us
You still have the best item available in the game for your class (Just not an overpowered and so unbalanced one).
