It could be seen as a chance (for those that can afford it) for lower levels to get a small boost towards EOC with a faster stam gain.
That's a very solid point.
The lower levels that actually get to use the Tiered Steamworks will benefit a bit.
I just feel like the execution and balancing could be better. The main problem I'm having is that I'm looking at a plethora of Epics (Seasonal & Others) just lost a lot of their value.
We now have an Epic Armor at level 300 that you can keep for well over 1000 levels and not miss out on any Stam gain upgrade.
