What do you guys think?

It’s time to up the CP gear. It will greatly improve the economy and overall population. It will get things rolling again with farming gear and materials. Gota make that $$$

    For me as long as they continue using the CP system there is no real reason for increasing the CP level of gear. Players pretty much simply over power the game already and an increase in gear level will make that power even more over the top while doing not much more then force players to farm everything they have all over again.

    You want the gear level cap being higher than 160?

    Then the enemy level cap has to match it. >:)

    No! No! No!

    But if yes. Then 50 transmute crystal level up the gear.

    But No! No! No!

    Instead of gear cap raise erase some blacksmithinh/clothing/woodworking material from the game.

    Jewelcrafting only 5/5 = 5 different material.
    These three 10/10 = 10 different material same enough 5 different material.

    Hell no,

    The gear cap is set at the current expected level, move the gear cap & everything else has to move with it
    mob subjective level & stats
    all the crafting break points
    all consumables
    PvP gets to be even more of a mess...

    And given that only the trials get any harder, there's no incentive to want this or need this

    Just FYI. They’ll nerf everything into the ground for a gear cap increase. It’s required and it’s what they did every time.

    Further, if you cannot make money in the current economy your doing something wrong or not doing anything at all.

    Yup, raise it to CP 3000 with nothing in the middle.

    That way you guys can REALLY feel the grind.

    This is a terrible idea. If they raise the gear level they will also raise the enemy level, so basically, nothing changes, you don't get more powerful, you just end up having to re-grind everything for absolutely nothing. Did you even think about that?

    When some one can explain how raising the gear cap in a scaled game make the game better, then we have something to talk about.

    As it stands now, raising the gear cap raises the mob cap so players scramble and grind to end exactly where they all are today, at the cap. No net change. In anything. And just hours of wasted effort to spin wheels.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Even if they introduce a system to upgrade current gear if jewelry crafting was any indication of the amount of “time” they would want you spend to make sets you have already golded, transmuted, or won an RNG role would be Effie horrendous.

    It would be way better to get rid of gear levels altogether and remove all but 1 level of mats. It would also remove clutter in bags.

    Yeah, compacting everything down to Ebony, and moving the effective gear cap to 50 (with it scaling to the current 160 stats), would probably be a far smarter idea.

    Are you a WoW or FFXIV player? This system is so old!

    No new races. But SKINS.
    No new classes. But SKILL LINES and SPELLCRAFTING.
    No new CP Gear. But HORIZONTAL PROGRESSION (Skill Lines and other new systems)

    Just to make it clear: THIS IS ESO.

    Yeah, my vote... for whatever it's worth would be:

    Cut fixed levels entirely from gear. Let them scale like food and potions. Then compact the CP tiers down into normal 50. (Get rid of food tiers entirely, (just make us spec to make higher rarity food.) Then let the Ebony Tier scale to 160.

    The only way this would be anywhere close to a reasonably good idea was if they automatically upgraded all our CP 160 gear to CP 180 or whatever. No way in hell I'm re-grinding for all that stuff all over again. No. Way. In. Hell. lol

    Regrinding gear is not fun and interesting game play. Only a a masochist would want to regrind gear for all their characters

    As stated above, the mobs would also have to be releveled making it entirely pointless and a waste of dev time.
