Raising up the actual level seems really silly to me. I get leveling to 20. You unlock new abilities in your skill tree. But you aren’t getting new abilities so why bother raising it from 20 to 25 if power level is the main focus? Seems silly and unnecessary.
Level means honestly next to nothing in this game once you get your third skill. Light level is the only thing that matters, and I actually hope they dont raise it anytime soon.
I think one of issues is as I've seen someone else mention is that even if you are level 100 the monsters scale with you to a limit, but it never feels like you are now much more powerful from all your hard work.
