    That's nice, but -

    There are times, especially in the case of DD and mage classes, where a lower level gear is better than the higher level gear because the lower level gear has better bonus stats that matter to the class, specifically. I guess it doesn't occur so much as to be much of an issue, but it's still important to note that "your gear is grey" does not always mean you are wearing the wrong gear.

    Thats true! Always forgot about that, most people deck out in at least some old gear, a lot of my current gear would be grey even though its all the best I can use.

    How do they handle that sort of thing in WoW?...does WoW have bonus attributes? I don't remember from what little I played of it.
