Add level requirement to bandages

[Xudo]

Currently Expert First Aid - Under Wraps
requires only 150 first aid to learn.
In the same time, Heavy Runecloth Bandage require only 225 level to use.
It means player can use top bandages at lvl 19.
For example PvP consumabes have strict level requirement.
Highlander\'s Runecloth Bandage require 45 lvl
Highlander\'s Mageweave Bandage require 35 lvl
Highlander\'s Silk Bandage require 25 lvl.

My proposal is to add level requirement to bandages. Make it similar to PvP consumables.
Silk Bandage should require 20 lvl.
Heavy Silk Bandage should require 25 lvl.
Mageweave Bandage should require 30 lvl.
Heavy Mageweave Bandage should require 35 lvl.
Heavy Runecloth Bandage should require 45 lvl.
Runecloth Bandage should require 50 lvl.

My reasons:
1. This change fits a concept of using consumables and buffs of appropriate level. All potions require specific player level. Low level players can't drink high level potions. All grenades require specific engineering skill. Low level players can't use high level grenades.
2. This change will reduce the gap between twinks and non-twinks. It will lead to more fair play in low level PvP.

+1 to this and other related changes like wbuff removal for BGs, wbuffs are fine for wpvp as over level allies can police wbuffed twinkers.

Leave it as it is.

Just because someone else min/maxes doesn’t mean everything needs to settle for average and dull. I’m not a min maxer but if ppl feel encouraged to take the extra step, why stop them?

I don't propose to stop minmaxers. I propose to remove power, which is unobtainable without high level character or massive gold investment.
I propose it to allow regular levellers successfully participate in low level battlegrounds.
Right now, people try to join, see bunch of unkillable twinks and don't join anymore.
Bandages are one of the power I propose to remove. Other is high level enchants. Third is unobtainable items.

If people want to minmax his character, he still can stop xp and go get top gear from dungeons, complete high-level quests, get fishing hat (it is obtainable by low level alone), go engineering, hoard tons of consumables for his level.
There is enough room for minmaxing without bandages and enchants.

to make leveling pvp not a total trashcan dumpsterfire of twinking. It's not viable nor optimal for someone to minmax runecloth bandages while lv 10. It's only something being done by twinks. You should play the game more to see how it works and how players abuse systems like this, and then you will surely agree with us.
