Game balance was centered around all of an epic sphere becoming available at level 20, we didn't see any decent gear sets to replace level 15/17 Sharn sets. (assuming the player has run a few EPLs)
The U51 Revamp states monsters will be reduced as well, but I suspect that won't be sufficient for many epic characters in their heroic gear.
So, to that end, will we be able to expect Epic gear that scales in the epic levels, beside the level 29 gear?
We'll be experiencing a dramatic shift in capability and it's the height of folly to call it "Epic Levels" when everyone is forced the trudge through them in "heroic" gear. (Because sets are a thing and there are no low level epic sets.)

With the removal of Epic Spheres recommend introduction of low level epic sets

The s/s/s revamp gave us a bunch of set options for level 20. There's some pretty good stuff in there.

Yes, but you've got to farm them first. A beginner in "low level epic" - as this thread's title says - might not have everything at once.

Saltmarsh stuff upgraded to L20 also includes a set bonus.
Perhaps Lynnabel intends to make equipment tiers, such as those found in Saltmarsh (L3, L20, L30), available in future Expansions and Quest Packs. Has anyone asked?Sophie Cat Burglar - Creator, Dreamer, Explorer - Happy yet Sad - Seeker of Beauty and Wonder

S/S/S is a good start, but that's really more of a compensation for the **** system it used to be. I'd definitely like to see more low level set stuffs. Maybe added to the the lv 21~23 named gear. Or maybe a way to make your own set as an augment like they did around fey, but without needing multiple raid items and such.

A revamp of the eveningstar gear should be next on the equipment list, all of the ES gear from all the packs/expansions, followed by epic GH gear.
That would go a long way with filling the 22-28 gear Tetris Originally Posted by nobodynobody1426

If only there was a way to collect heroic gear and then upgrade it on the way... Oh wait. Hay what you say? Remember those ingredients you spent endless threads complaining about. Originally Posted by Alrik_Fassbauer

The hay gear is Legendary. Not Epic.

Please go to the epic alter in the 12 where you make your level 20 epic items then come back here and tell me what you found. Originally Posted by Alrik_Fassbauer

Hay is for making the level 20 version, star fragments is for the 30 (and maybe a bit of hay too?). The new gearsets are 3/20/30. Originally Posted by Alrik_Fassbauer
