85-100 upgrades for guaranteed items

Was it intended that factions and guaranteed drops from certain corpses don’t get respective 85-100 upgrades like other rares/MIs?

For example, items like Slithtongue and Karvor’s Conjuring Bone still appear to only have level 70 versions as their maximum. I know it’s not a huge change, but one of the things I absolutely love about GD is farming these guaranteed items. I know that if I’m lacking in a certain slot in a build, I can usually find an upgrade by farming these corpses or re-rolling faction vendors for gear.

Yes, the expansion vendors have gear for 85+ but I’d love to see variants for classic GD vendors. And it’d be awesome to have the upgraded versions of guaranteed corpse items drop too.

Level 84 skinner’s torch, yes please.

Just bumping this.

Would be awesome if guaranteed rare drops from non-mobs could scale past level 70!

I’d like it if there were higher level versions of the Act 1 placed rares but I’m not sure how it could be done.

From what I can tell now, there is only 1 base for Normal/Veteran, Elite and Ultimate. Quest items like Skinner’s Torch or the Witch’s Effigy seem to be similar only having 1 per difficulty.

If they introduced more bases to cover higher levels, they would have to change this so that which one you receive is determined by level instead.
