the main quest literally tells you to go do hall of the novice, though. I don't mean in a way you can ignore, it marches you right up to the hall of the novice and tells you to talk to the guy before you can do satasha. They added gear vendors for every level up to 50 i think in the main cities. By the time you even get into satasha, you are already level capped. I'm not sure what else they can do.
