Default Only affects targets level XY and below.

Okay, so look at the proc please. It only affects targets level 95 and below, and if the target is level 103 or higher, the proc resists more likely. So what's the logic behind that? Why does the resistability increase at levels where it doesn't even affect the target anymore? And why is there even a level restriction to those procs? This is just utter rubbish, and almost every crowd control proc gets handeled that way. I just don't get it.



And by the way, Fabled level 80 item procs only affect targets level 90 and below, 5 level less than Legendary.

Because the Resistibility increase is based on the fact that they are considering Smash a Level 83 spell, while they decided that this specific Smash can only be used against Level 95 and below mobs. That's why. They expect you to UPGRADE TO NEW GLOVES FOR HIGHER LEVELS OMGZ!!!!!!

Well, cheap shot works. Better change that also then? And most level 70s could solo those guards.

Who the fuck cares when, with those gloves, would you ever fight a level 95 mob (or anything remotely close to it) or a lvl 103 mob? Never, Naggy doesn't count since, OH SHIT! He's an epic! Are those the best legendary gloves for a Brawler or something? Because they seem pretty crappy other than for soloing.

Because some lvl 30 items have roughly the same effect as on the gloves, and it prevents people from using them @ higher levels. I think there's an ROV chest piece that has a stifle proc, so it would pertain to that.

I know I still find myself using the manacles of the dark sky ( procs a 7 sec stifle iirc ) from time to time if I wanna duel people or stifle named mobs or shit. With this mechanic in place it prevents those items from maybe overshadowing higher lvl items for solo/group "end" instances.

That's the logic I see behind it neways.

So what? Oh noes, a level 30 item helped me kill level 30 mobs, and now it can also help me kill level 50 mobs. Nerf that shit!
