Appropriate Rewards
I'm on my second play through and it's even more frustrating the second time knowing you will never accumulate level appropriate gear. Each time I have done the "Of Swords and Dumplings" quest, I did it at a level far below what is suggested(12 and 15) yet when it is complete I am rewarded with this supposedly great sword that is weaker than the one I used to get it. So what good would it have done me to wait until level 24? Throughout the game you either find gear you can't use yet or find gear that you no longer need. It's very rare to get something that is a major improvement over what you are carrying that you can use immediately. I guess at least now you can store better gear until later.
