• Because its rare to find items in the non 5 dividend I suggest making it where for each 1 level over the item level up to a maximum of five you get an increase chance of enhancing that gear. This means if you are in lvl 17 gear, but can not find anything else then you can enhance your gear to +2 to compensate for it without worrying to much on losing the item. Now since many sets can be found for every 5 levels then this effect would only work going to +5 then after that the normal failure rate would go back into effect no matter what level the user enhancing the items is.

• An over abundance of gear in the economy is just as bad as a shortage of gear. There has to be a balance. Many games use Soul-binding to balance this but I do like this method better, the one already in the game. No one would dare to do more than +2 or +3 gear without have a replacement already on their toon because of the current failure rate. But then they win another item they already have. Instead of selling it they say to themselves 'I want to plus up this sword' or in make case 'blow up this sword.' I am going to take a chance on getting that +6 sword because I am already holding a +4. If I blow it up I lose nothing but whatever I could have sold it for as a +0 item on the market. If I succeed I am lulz newb-slayer. So I keep blowing up swords and may or may not get a +6 one say.
  
  In this way gear is removed from the economy keeping it free of flooding and driving down the prices so much that even that +6 is next to worthless on a resale value.
  
  No one has an advantage over anyone else to get that fine piece of gear (without the ca$h $hop item) so a L15 has the same chance as a L19 to have similar gear in RW, nether having an innate advantage over the other because of the level differences.
  
  The failure rate on enhancements is the only failure rate I do not complain about in the game.
