The power level of your pinnacle drops is based on your current overall maximum power level.
You may own a 965 Power Weapon already, but if your overall max power is 963, you will receive random 965 pinnacle drops (pinnacles are +2 your overall max) - which can be another power weapon.

You are correct. I don’t expect the game to scan my gear per slot. I never thought of it that way. Thank you for pointing that out. First time I came on the forums no trolling and got an honest and correct answer. Thank you again.
