Having a button to toggle between the Current and Theoretical Max level stats of gear in your inventory would make it easier to compare loot drops to equipped gear at different levels.
For example, a tier 2 gear drop would always show worse stats than a 3.3 gear, and players would often have to guess if it will turn out better post upgrade before investing precious metal into it. Being able to view them both with a “baseline” would be beneficial.
I am also poor because i upgraded the echo knight helmet to max and it still has worse numbers than my current maxed upgraded one i found in the sewers
