    Unless it was already removed there should be a penalty/bonus effect to your stats (acc, att, etc.) when fighting an enemy that is higher or lower level than you, and that increases according to the number of levels of difference. Meaning a character ilvl117 with the exact same stats as an ilvl119 would still suffer a penalty due to level difference alone.

    Although I'm inclined to think the penalty is still in effect because mobs can change from T to VT if I use an equip macro that lowers my ilvl, which is also one of the main reasons I want alternative ways to unlock Empy +1 reforge with Monisette.

    Level difference penalties were not included in Adoulin or after. Source: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...ion#post410348

    Changing the /check is just because it changes your item level, not that there's any difference in how difficult the mob is.
