About lost questline prize items from starting on lev 40

I had misunderstood the effects of starting on lev 40 since I thought that all questlines that demand you do Legendary quests will still be able to do and get the item reward from (Like the "Finnbar bow" or the "Devi's Royal Silken Tunic" etc...).

As I understand it to start on lev 40 will give instant access to Legendary end-game play, which is good - and makes it logical that you loose chance to get items won by doing the non-legendary-questlines (that gives like Athena spear etc). And that part is no big loss - the items mentioned above on the other hand is.

I see no problem adding like a version to "Blessings of the Lion" for the civs started on lev 40 that demands you do the "Reclaiming..."-versions of the same quests as Blessings of the Lion demanded - so the players started on lev 40 can get them items too. I understand you can't use the original "Blessings of the Lion", but it can have the same name on the surface still, or another name, doesn't matter - just give new players that start on lev 40 a chance to win them items also I think.

That's my suggestion ^ Should be an easy fix if the will is there.

*Since I had misunderstood this I advised a friend to delete some civs and remake them on lev 40 since we intend to play Legendary together; so he deleted and re-created Celt, Persian, Babylon and Norse (all on lev 23-24). I was just informed that with that we deleted his chance for these items, which I assumed you still could get since you win them via Legendary questlines. Now he's been inactive for years, but I talked him back and did this to him first I did :'(

 

I think they should be obtainable for doing the quest as any regular lev 40 person, but that can be evaluated ofc.

Since my view (and many others) is that this game starts at lev 40 all the post lev 20 leveling is just same supersimple but VERY time-consuming quests that might be a bit dull to plow through.

Hence the skip feature is a long missed but very good idea in it's base - though the form can still be improved some. To see the items be attainable also for new start on lev 40 civs is an easy fix and I think it really should be changed to this.

That you can't skip with a created civ made a mess for my friend here now, and that's part of my fault for misunderstanding the format of "skip to 40", but it shouldn't need happen if he could have skipped with his lev 24 Celt and the similar level Persian and Norse.
