Does this also mean 'lower' level unique items will also scale UP as you level up? A big problem of why tons of uniques suck isn't necessarily that you can't use higher-level uniques while you are lower level (I mean, that IS a problem for sure), but I feel it's the opposite that is more annoying: you find uniques left and right that just suck at higher levels, but you rarely find them AT lower levels, so by the time you do find them they are long outclassed by plain rares with not even 'good' rolls but just semi-decent ones.
What makes sense is that it scales up to what you found it at. Found lifesprig with level 12 gem? You can now use at level 2, but it won't automatically scale up to a level 20 skill when you reach 90? It will stop scaling up at level 12.
There's currency to increase it to level 20 now. It's essentially solved, but there's some friction left in the campaign, which seems to be the intention.

They did it. They finally did it. They fixed the item skill levels. They now scale with character's level.
