Leveling to 30 shouldn't be considered a reward. I've played many mmo's world of Warcraft being one of my Favorites with 7 capped out toons, geared to raid. Gear should be the reward and more of it should be available . I'm a 28 warlock at the moment and was wearing a head piece from the queen quests, hated it and decided to buy a vanguard helm. Was dropped back down to level 26 when I switched pieces until I leveled the gear up again which I did. It's stupid as f--- to lose a couple of levels when you want to switch your gear. I think the leveling is stupid as f--- but of course that's my opinion.
