According to the enemies displayed level not their damage reduction or anything else, just the level that is displayed next to their name technically imply, you are, say level 76 if you are OP 4? Also loot implies if you are OP 4 that the damage and aspects of the loot would be level 76. So therefore if you are only comparing power of loot and the displayed shown level of an enemy and not the damage reduction or anything, theoretically you would be level 73 - 80. Am I correct?
I realize enemies ability and damage reduction and everything are different than if you normally leveled and that’s why i’m not including any of those, i’m just speaking in terms of the displayed level and power of loot. So I would be correct in those terms right?
No OP levels are not the same as level 73-80, as Jefe said it only applies to gear, so you are not actually those levels, the game is simulating them. For example, if you got to the maximum you would be 72 and OP8, so you are almost level 80, with loot and enemies, however you didn’t get XP, you didn’t get HP, you didn’t get skill points, and your gear cannot be used if you were to turn them off. Therefore, you are not actually level 80 you are comparable to level 80.
If you want to read more about OP levels you can check the wiki:
It’s full of information with hardly any inaccuracies.
Basically i always saw it that way, but it’s like your character stays lv72, and the unlock goes.only.for.the gear. Funny enough, when op8, Zer0’s deception will show lv 80 when thrown
