Setting to enable loot level scaling by player level instead of by zone
What loot you can get from chests should be able to scale with you level.
This gives a bigger incentive to play and level up other than just skills.
Example: you and your friends start a new save, one or 2 rush through all zones just to get max level gear and become overgeared too quickly.
The gear from chests could max be 5 levels over your current level, the higher zones should instead have higher drop chances of legendary gear.
fix: Make it a setting to either do level scaling or zone scaling of weapons.

Would be nice with some sort of change, at level 29 I entered the top area and found myself a level 45-50 2h axe...
Honestly don't think we should be getting a weapon with more than twice your levels supposed power.
not to mention I could with the knowledge i have now grabbed it around level 10 which would be insane.
If anything the level of the loot we find should be limited to your own level +5 or something, atleast as an option.
We got ourselves a red shroud to avoid, but that doesnt prevent us from entering higher level areas thats not in the shroud, -

PaulJI'd prefer it if chest (and loot drops in general) did NOT contain gear. This is a crafting game, not a looter ARPG. This is a chance to have a game do something more interesting, like loot giving you rare recipes and materials, so that YOU can decide what you want to craft. Not yet another game where you speedrun to a high level area to farm a high level chest, then complain that you found the same legendary boots 10 times.
Let's have this crafting game be more crafting-oriented. -

Tony StarrWe need a middle ground for chest loot that respects exploration. I hate dynamic scaling as much as anyone, but the current zone-locked loot system ruins completionism.If you take your time exploring an area like the Springlands, you quickly outgrow it. Finding a Legendary weapon should be an awesome moment, but getting one that is several levels below you means it's just instant vendor trash. It encourages players to ignore 70% of the side quests and just rush into the next zone for upgrades. I've been using an epic weapon since level 3 I found in a silver chest and trashed ALL the legendaries (around 10) I found after that in the area, it is so disappointing
