Isn't that why so many "OP" Year 1 weapons are being nerfed, though? Fatebringer, Ghorn, Blackhammer, Thorn, etc.. It seems like they're already dealing with that issue. And, even if they're [i]not[/i], these imbalances won't negatively effect anyone in PvE, which is the only area that's truly effected by capping gear. [i]PvP[/i] is where weapons balance is actually important, and it'll be almost entirely unaffected by the cap... So it doesn't seem like a great plan, honestly.
