Weapon and armor stats just plummeted - what happened?
Just returned to a work station to weed out my overflowing inventory and wham! All of my weapon damage and armor stats are suddenly ... well, not what they were last time I checked! For example, I'm wielding Valaste's Spellbreaker Staff - it's level 48, and when I got it, it's damage was (I think) 1184 - it's now 834. Same with the armor I'm wearing. Don't know what exactly the stats were before, but they're definitely lower. Does it have something to do with hitting level 50? That's the only thing I can think of. And if so, why? WHY? I'm almost scared to go back out there now...

pattyLtd✭✭✭✭✭Yes, it's because of hitting level 50.
In the roots of the game your considered a veteran player now. Veterans are often old and not as quick or strong anymore.
or level scaliing is not effecting your weapons and armor anymore now. So you're level 48 stuff needs to be replaced with a level 50 one

✭✭✭✭✭When you level up and the difference between you and your gear increases, the power level goes down (you're intended to stay in similar level gear). This difference is most pronounced when you hit 50 and gain your champion point levels as you may be bumped directly up to cp160 gear cap instantly. Time to make/farm/buy some level appropriate gear by the sound of it.
Remember that you and your level appropriate gear will always scale up to the level cap. The key here is that only your level appropriate gear will scale up with you. If it's too far behind your level, it scales up but only very slightly.Edited by redspecter23 on November 16, 2016 12:22PM1 -

yes, this happened to my character too, and it quite shocked me
, until level 50 your stats are scalled to be like level 50 (cp 160). but once you reach level 50, this scalling is not any more on place, so all the stats drop.
You have to craft or buy or find cp 160 armor and weapons to increase it again

Ok then, that explains it, I guess. I was waiting to pick up my Prismatic Weapon from Jofnir until I hit 50. Now I'm thinking I'll wait until I'm ready to go to Cold Harbour. Hmmm. Decisions, decisions....0

Ok, so am I understanding this correctly? I just hit 50 with this character. She's my second, and I was already at cp150 with my first - if my assumption is right that cp means champion points. So bam! my current character is at a PhD level but running around with kindergarten gear. Good thing I've still got some quests open before there's nothing left but Cold Harbour.1
