Armor protection and weapon strength are typically more powerful each level, but the bonuses that may be found on them are many levels apart. Thus, a peculiarity of the interaction of the AO Quality Level and ability requirement systems is that items of a higher QL than the breakpoint are, with respect to their requirements, less desirable than those at the breakpoint.
