Are there limits to max item level?
So far, I've been able to level up to 130 and beyond - but using smithing, the highest I've been able to take my items is level56.

I've just finished Hell Depths 4 and have seen 57s dropping/purchasable, but I haven't been able to level them up at all with smithing. Is 57 the cap for item levels at the moment?

whoa what? i thought 55 was the cap, lol
so just gotta keep grinding out that end game to get bigger better stuff huh? do the affix rolls get higher the higher the lvl the gear? or whats the advantage there

Judging from the Missions board/Classified Information, it looks like there might be 8 'tiers' to the potential endgame.

Whether or not it keeps scaling after Clearance Level 8, I'm not sure - but am curious about. Items and affixes appear to keep scaling, I'm not sure if food does at a slower rate or at all.

Ah, as suspected - your maximum crafting level is tied to the deepest Hell Depth you've conquered. My smithing maximum level on my items went from 56 -> 59 after I cleared Hell Depth 5.

Monster level goes up by 5 every hell depth. Above 50, max item level goes up by 1 every 20 monster levels. Affix rolls do get higher linearly based on item level. And yeah it keeps scaling after 8, I'm curious myself what the highest level possible is before monster scaling gets too out of hand. From the leaderboards https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/stats/1783280/leaderboards/10923958 seems people have gotten to 20+, although unfortunately can't tell if it's legit or not.

Thanks for the insight, appreciate it! <3

Question: Does the food keep scaling as well, or is there a limit on it? If I had to guess, there's a limit for the base effect (like glyphs), but the randomized effects are scaling.

Food is tied to character level so hard caps at 50.

Good to know - thanks! Now I don't need to risk my good food buffs trying to test it out. <3

hell depth 110 for the highest ranked? uhhhh suspicious

If I compare with his successes. It's 100% not legal.
in the logic that the successes were functional.

Because I see a lot of achievements unlock instantly. Which is impossible if it worked correctly.

what hell depth are you at, and how crazy is it?

i haven't started pushing yet, still just farming for some certain things. i have two working builds im really enjoying right now, and it seems they both could EASILY do hd8 right now

I finished depth 12.
I'm attacking area 13.

I'm still fine, but it takes me too long, I tend to avoid in order to move forward, there are still +- 25 levels.

I'm at a stage where the game freezes a bit, so I had to remove my tornadoes to make the game "smooth".

The hardest thing right now was upgrading my gear :D

Damn, another tornado build player - currently using Dash/Clones/Trigger on movement Tornados - absolutely destroying things (but I hear you about the lag).

What's your new build now?

And yeah, while I'm suspect about the top3 rankings - its not out of the realm of possibility. When leaderboards get involved, some people are willing to put in the grind for the top spot. :shrug: I feel that DoT stacking via Fire/Poison procs is most likely the real way they're able to keep scaling, each dungeon would take longer and longer but it's only a matter of time at that point.
