Our item standards are slightly out-of-date. The "red tier" was a standard set up for a level 1 - 15 environment. We will most-likely introduce a "purple" (yes, epix) tier for the next rung.
Why? We need items to keep pace with casters. I do believe that high level wizards should be powerful--a pay off for their low-level challenges. But the disparity between melee power and magic power at higher levels is greater than what we would like.
As we shoot for new standards, an issue of debate has been stat bonuses. What do you feel is the most STR, INT, etc. boost an item should give at this epic tier? Do keep in mind: we still envision Sundren as a "lower-than-average" magic environment.
