Essencial Stat Go Away?!

Why do all the essencial stats like powerpip chance resist, etc. go drastically down around lvl 70?!
I am a LVL 82 wizard and so I already have a hard time with solo fights and yet I took a look at my gear today and guess what? I have been using the same gear from when I was lvl 58 due to the fact I haven't been able to find anything better!!! I see that there is better gear if I craft some but I drive myself broke just or a pair of boots!!!
and It is not like I can use the pvp gear I always get paired up against lvl90 wizards. My rating is like 128 in pvp. (that is just a guess I'm too ashamed to go look)

It is strange. For the first 60 levels there's an even progression of gear. You can trade health for resist or damage, but everything goes up from level to level. At 50 we get good school gear. At 56 we can craft universal WT gear. At 58 we get even better school gear. At 60 we get better universal (Waterworks).

After that things get weird. There are odd combinations of advanced stats, but no improvements in universal or school gear. Even the level 90 stuff from AQ trades different advanced stats, but is no better than Waterworks on basics (sometimes worse). We're do for a real upgrade.

This is a problem, not the average kiddo with menu chat will know about Waterworks, let alone find a reliable group to go in with.

I would complain, but it's too late. We're 30 levels ahead (soon to be 40? Spoilers please KI? I swear, we don't mind :P)

I do agree, the Zafaria, Avalon, and the Azteca gear is horrific... Only suggestion I can make is make it a little better stat wise? Just common bazaar gear.
